Filling the freezer with a big boy

The Big Boy is perfect for still hunting through thick woods, hopefully it’ll put a stud on the ground for my last tag this year.

Nice. What cal and what distance

357, the buck was about 40 and the doe was around 30. Switched to American Eagle 158grains this year, and it puts them down but blood trails with the 357 are very iffy the eagles are the best bullet I’ve used so far

Nice. How far they end up running?

The buck was dead within 20 yards, the doe ran about 40-50

Can’t. Complain about that honestly.

Crazy. I'm in Nevada, my last buck was 550 yards. Shooting out here is like being a ww2 sniper. tikka 308.

What is that scope mount/ring setup? It looks like you have a cantilever base reversed and then some sort of high rise rings.

Nice deer. Your freezer looks like it will be well stocked for the winter.
