Been a ALL Savage season
Been using a factory Savage 112 BVSS (now in a factory VLP stock) in 6.5x284 using the 140 Berger Hunting VLD. As things worked out it was used by 3 family members on 4 animals so far this season.
4th animal was harvested today. A mature Pronghorn doe at 686yds after I missed another at 930 due to poor wind doping.
Earlier this month, my older daughter and I had a two-fer (she shoots a buck at 410 and I take the rifle, work the bolt on the run and whack a doe at 325) on Pronghorn. Both where flatten at the shot. Sorry no camera.
On the 14th my Wife and I where hunting a unit that closes on the 14th. Has seen alot of hunting this season, but was FULL of muledeer. We seen a few small guys. Saw a whooper fork horn. We set up him at 733yds.....ranged him again, as I am getting ready it moves off. We watch for a few minutes to see what will develop. 10 or so minutes we decide to make a move on him. While packing up our junk (amazing how now-a-days we have to have a pile of trappings to kill a friggin' deer) ........... I got the pack, rangefinder, big spotter bino's.....wife has the rifle ........ and out of the canyon at our feet boils up a Mule deer buck. Not the biggest but in a heavy hunted public area ...... I can see he is a 4 or 5 yr old, see horns with some mass ...... tell wife to get on him ..... I yell, he stops at under 300, she shoots. Takes the shot center of ribs angling forward, exits in front of off shoulder. He makes it maybe 50yds. 2 hours to get him up to the truck.
