Two deer so far this year with my 25 SAUM and Berger 135 LRHTs. Wife’s doe at 271 yards, lungs were jello on that one. Maybe made it 10 yards before going down. Then my buck at 550 yards, impact velocity right around 2500. Photos are of the buck.

Congrats! That is a Stud of a buck!

Can’t decide if I like the buck or the critter getter more! Great buck.

Bullet passed between ribs on entry and exit and never hit bone, but still exhibited nose fragmentation. Cow took two steps on impact and tipped over. MV was 2970fps and impact velocity was ~2675fps.

That is a big bodied buck! What did he weigh in at?

I honestly don’t have a clue. He was heavy for sure though. Made the doe next to him look like a yearling.
