I had this rifle for several years and finally this morning it got it's buck, I've been hunting public land that was over hunted last year opening day I heard maybe 6 shots but a lady at my church has some land an gave me permission to hunt on it, opening morning Saturday the 16th I saw 4 does and this buck but did get a shot didn't hunt Sunday. Went yesterday morning I was in the stand for 5 hours never saw anything, got in the stand a little after 6am today a hour and a half I looked over my right shoulder a saw this fellow coming up behind me with his nose to the ground, when he got even with me he looked up and then walked a few feet stopped looked up again didn't like what he saw and bolted I'm thinking dang but he stopped again in about 15 yards just 25 yards in front of my with a quarter align perfect shot align I put one of my 280gr Noe HP slugs in him, he ran about 50 yards an laid down for his last Dirt Nap. That 280gr made a mess of his lungs after going through a rib exited through a rib offside through the shoulder and found the slug under the hide, what a Great hunt for me and the Texan. He was between the small tree and the larger one on the right looking straight over my rifle.
