My Mauser M12 308 Win (the one I posted about some time back that were being sold pretty cheap and a number of folks here bought) and 150 gr Federal blue box. The hunt opportunity came fairly quick so I lacked time for handloading.

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Beautiful mount! I would have to drag my chair in front of it and just admire it.

Kid,

My lady friend insisted on having it mounted and hung over the fireplace in the ranch house. Suppose to be ready sometime in July. We’ll see

Cool deal KW! My wife always says when she gets a big buck I have to get it mounted for her. I have always just saved the money for the next adventure.

Her itchy trigger finger has thus far kept me from having a taxidermist bill!
