Horns!!!

Ok, just got a chance to sit down. 7-8+ point depending how you count. #150 lbs dead weight. Very nice deer for our camp styx river, Stapleton area. 80 yards from a tripod. 120gr win PDX rd. x39 out of the Rarr. Jumped about 14 feet and dropped dead. No exit wound, massive internal damage. Love that big "whoomp" sound when they drop. This is my biggest buck to date. Totally stoked!!

Congrats, was the buck chasing ?

Nice pile of cube steak, enjoy.

He was. Poor sucker.

I saw a nice buck about hour ago , almost 400 yds out, not enough gun with me to take a shot, was raining early this morning so I left my cannon at the house, just my dam luck

Way to go! Ruger RARR will get it done. Don't underestimate what that cartridge will do. A 5-6 pound 30 caliber little recoil deer slayer. JMHO lol.

Range is limited though. 200 yards max in my opinion based on the #'s. Ymmv.

I agree, with most of my hunting ranges 150 yards or less it is a great setup.

I'm wondering what the round will do at 150-200. May not have enough speed for the hp bullet to do its thing.

My enjoyment over this was short lived. Apparently mine is the largest harvested this year so far.
Damm fudds at camp are all pissy over this. My toy rifle, it was on my cam, you shot it from my tripod. ( had permission) etc, etc..
I'm happy when one of the guys get a good one. Same crap as last year when I dropped one in its tracks with the 10mm TNW AERO carbine. I even let 3 other 6pts walk last year so someone might have a chance. My sil got 1 of them ( with my new ruger, lol), was I mad, hell no. I was thrilled. Her 1st in 26 years, her and my bride were hopping around like kids. Vent over

No loser, likes a winner. I almost never show or tell about the bucks I kill , for just that reason.
Good job RR! Congratulations !

Thanks, I see your point.

Definitely one of the down sides of being in a club. Find a couple hundred acres for yourself to lease. Keep it to family and there you go. Or as the above said Keep what you shoot to yourself. I was in a club years ago close to our land we lease. Just to much nonsense.

Five of us hunt 900 acres. Any member can hunt any stand. We enjoy seeing other members kill deer.

Got this 10 point this afternoon, couldn't get him to stop running/casing around the food plot to judge him really good. Took him on his last step on the way out of the food plot. 7mm Remington mag ran about 30 yards.

 

[Rebel_Rider1969]

Got a 6pt today!! BCA AR, MSR, 350 legend. 180gr win sp. 40 yard shot. He was moving so shot was a bit further aft than I like. Still died quick. Not real good at shooting when they are moving.
Ran about 30 yards into a giant flesh ripping briar patch. Then plop. A spike that was on the plot when i shot looped back in about 10 mins after I zapped his buddy, dang dopey deer. So I waited about 30 mins before I went and got him out.
Exit wound, made a damm mess inside.

 

[Rebel_Rider1969]

Gun porn! BCA upper for all the nay sayers. 1.5x4 vortex.

 

[hunter01]

That 350 legend with the wright bullet can make a marginal shot into a lethal one. For a light recoil cartridge so far I've been happy with its performance, my son has adopted it as his gun. Excellent for kids, recoil sensitive or shorter range shots.

Yep!! My brides sister got one, rarr she loves it. I hope she zaps one soon.
I used the MSR on purpose today to tweak the fudds. Lol.
