yds Posted February 25, 2013 Report Share Posted February 25, 2013 (edited) I went out with friends at the weekend. Andy and wayne. I would stalk with Andy we would start the stalk just before light. We were soon in on some fallow 17 a mixture of does followers and a pricket or 2, but there was no backstop. Andy suggested we backed away and went around to re-aquire them. I followed closely as we made good time. In the half light he spotted a great buck and youngster heading our way. He said John that big bucks for you. Well I didn't need telling twice. The buck was now 175m's away and sniffing the air. I was already knelt on my sticks and aiming the rifle. I said Andy he's not stood broadside and he's going to bolt Im going to neck him" I awaited an answer. Nothing so I squeesed off the shot the buck collapsed. The 160gr bullet snapping his neck. Andy said take the pricket but he never gave me chance. Turns out Andy had not heard my statement as he had his fingers pressed into his ear holes.....my braked 7mm rem mag is no pussy cat. Well what a buck. Andy gralloched this and the big buck closely watched over by me. I told him not to "stick" it as it would be going to the taxidermists. I later shot a doe at 60ms freehand and was well capped. Before I left we had a go at the munjac and on last knockings I took a nice we buck the magnum stopping it with out even a kick of its back leg.
