I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
Ain’t easy havin pals.

Crowds really seemed to make me take my game up a notch this year, but I went in deep and found this tall heavy buck and put him down with one 150grain scenar out of the 7 rem mag. Smashed his spine and exited out his chest - more proof these are bone crushers for the nay sayers . Only 23” wide but 22.5” tall...Going in lite, coming out heavy.

Tall rack, decent mass

Dandy looking buck!! Congrats!
Though I've only used Scenars in 6.5mm, I've yet to see anything to give me pause in using them on critters.

A real good buck and looks like it would be a fun hunt. Congrats!
Were you walking ridges looking down into the brush?

Congrats on the mule deer buck. Looks like some steep slopes- probably uphill both ways ;-)

Very nice buck. Having lived in Idaho for 30 years I saw some fantastic bucks and managed to get a few nice ones. Again congratulations.

Nicely done! Another “target” bullet victim! 😁
Just curious why you didn’t cut off the leg at the joint? Less weight to haul.

In the last 5 years those target bullet scenars in 139 and 150 grain variations have killed 16 animals with 18 shots by me and my friends/family...(deer, elk, antelope, black bear - from 75-480 yards)
