nice buck, how much he way 125-135lbs? Nice rack on him, what scope is that u got? and wood stock on the gun looks old, but still shoots straight, so thats all that matters, what does he score?

[allwaysfishin]

Actually youngun, he weighed 185 gutted, as per the meat hook at my butcher.... so probably 225 on the hoof, NOT a small blacktail 
I don't score my deer, I'm not a bone hunter , could care less about scoring. Although last years big blacktail does qualify for the book... but you won't find it there , don't get me wrong.... I'm as pleased as the next guy when i bring down a deer with a nice rack... but it's secondary to meat in the freezer, which is why i hunt.
The rifle i am shooting is an exceptionally acurate 303 british ,BSA  lee enfield no1 mkIII and was manufactured in 1911, my prefered rifle and calibre for hunting deer in the thick, although this rifle has taken mulies at 200 plus yards and one big bull moose at 150ish yards. the scope is a bushnell elite 3200 , 3-9x40 with a camo job i did a while back.

i miss judged the weight just a little.    If it shoots straight and u can hit the target, use it. Looks like that combo does fine. With my 300 i wouldn't be afraid to push 300 yards, just a confidence factor, just like how i perfer roe over ghost shrimp, or blades over spoons. good job, ur 2 for 2, now i have to go out and get another one just to tie.

Went out duck hunting last night, nothing much flying during legal shooting hours.  Lets bring on the wind and rain.....

[allwaysfishin]

was out for first shooting light today..... putting out the decoys in the dark. lotsa fog and mist this morning so we missed shots at a  few high flyers that wouldn't commit on the pond. Wasn't untill the sun warmed things a little till we had birds coming in on our decoys. was a couple hours of fun with 3 guys limiting out. Don't duck/goose hunt much but it's something i'm trying to do more of. Was my new remingtons virgin day out in the field and she peformed true to remington fashion.... flawlessly. mmmm roast mallard breasts with orange rum sauce mmmmmmm
