one of the largest blacktails I've taken here in Oregon, weighed 210 pounds on the hoof.
Shot it with a 7 mm Mauser in a Model 70 Featherweight, with a load of 28 grs of SR 4759 and a 115 grain Speer HP.
A heart shot, and it dropped like a sack of potatoes. Light load so easy to place the shot. That bullet did its job perfectly.
many folks would overlook it...In its parameters tho, its deadly.
