This is my dream buck! Taken in the wild no fences!!! In 2011 it was the seventh largest rifle buck taken that year. I missed the Boone & Crocket by 1.25"!!! Un-official 166 5/8, after the drying time and all deductions, 158 6/8", 160 or higher will get you an entry in B&C. Did make the PA books though! ;) This was taken with my Browning ABolt Medallion .270 At home. |

I have never talked to anyone who has shot a deer like that. I wonder how long he made it missing a foot and how he lost it. |

I took my 13 year old out, Nov 1 & 2, for youth season. It took until
the last 5 minutes of light on the last day, but he came through. I noticed a dark spot a decent way out in the field and told him to check it out. He determined that it was a deer, so I said go ahead and take the shot, but give it a couple inches of hold over. He fired, looked at me and said it went down. We went out and checked it out. Sure enough, he dropped it, in its tracks...base of the neck shot on a young 9 pt buck, at just over 300 yds. Not a bad way to get your first deer. (copy pasted from my post in the LaRue forum). |

Sorry, links fixed and more 77gr kill pics added.
4 deer taken with 77's out to 230yds so far, I'd have no issues taking it to 300. |

Damn, what's going on in that last picture
|
|
|
Depending on what last pic your referring to its either a 120yd "Texas heart shot" or a 110+/- head shot. Both using 77gr Noslers, and both drt.
Gonna try the 62gr Fusions next year just so I can better match my Acog bdc but the 77gr Noslers have worked great for me so far. |
