Holy ####!!!!!n sh!!!!!t. The ole 6.5x55 comes through again. 187 yard, according to the range finder. The buck came out 3 times over the course of the day before I could get a shot. After seeing him piss off twice. The second time I was ready to call it quits! Then I said to myself "self" Your here anyway. Wait it out. Glad I did! In the far far distance, I could see a glimour of hunter orange. A damn tresspasser!!!!!!!!!!!! It was. Lucky for me! About 4 min after seeing the orange, I could see movement in the distance! It was a deer for sure. I waited about 10 min. The buck was coming right toward me. I clicked the safety off the tikka 6.5, and said to myself "let him come" He decided to stop, and start walking to the west. I had a wide open broadside shot. I squeezed the trigger, buck went about 15 yards, then dropped. 140 gr. nosler partition did him in. Heart, and lungs were finished. 12 pt. buck about 270lbs. My biggest ever!
Love hunting!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
