I guess this should probably go in the hunting thread but since there is a lot of Zastava interest here, I thought I'd post this up.

Rattled this guy in first thing this morning and my new Zastava did the job perfectly. Shot distance was about 150yds. Bullet used was a Barnes TSX 140gr at 2911 avg fps and I actually got to recover it.

No complaints with the Zastava and its operation other than the side mounted safety being a bit hard to use with gloves on but that's too be expected and I'm probably only complaining because I really prefer the Ruger and Winchester 3 position safeties.

Thanks again guys!

Here's another pic of me and the buck. It was such a beautiful day out with the frost on the trees. Cold but beautiful. I sure warmed up quickly though on the 1/3 mile drag back to the truck. He was a big bodied brute.

Well not trying to start a buck showing off thread here or anything and this one has nothing to do with the Zastava (rifle used was a Ruger Hawkeye .30-06) but I thought this might be interesting. I took this buck on the same date last year, Nov 18th, in the exact same location (this years buck dropped no more than 40yds away), same conditions, I sat in the same spot, and rattled him in at probably close to the same time of day as well. Certainly not more than 1/2 hour apart time wise.
