The sucker had me pegged and lit out with the afterburners on and I led him a bit much. He got even by getting in a really sucky spot before I finished him. The three trips packing him out damned near finished me but he's my best Blacktail to date.

That's a real nice buck. I love my Ruger stainless MkII 30-06 and it still wears the skeleton stock. It's a tough rifle that shoots well.
