This week kicked off Missouri's deer season. My 65 year old mother still hunts and shoots with the best of them.

GOOD! This one was taken at about 100 yards with a stock .243.

BETTER! This was taken with an S1 special. .300 WSM all tricked out with an R2 reticle. It was at about 245 yards and running like he was being chased by the po-lice. I hit him a little low but it still took out both lungs and the bottom of the heart. The 178 A-Max performed as promised.

OH MY GOD!!!! My lovely bride (who is 5'4" tall)killed this monster at 100 yards while he was walking through the woods. I figured it weighed about 250 Lbs and has eleven points if you count the one that makes him look like a unicorn.

My farm is in an undisclosed location in north Missouri. Maps are available to the highest bidder!!!!!

Just for reference the rifle in this shot is a Remington 700 that has not been shortened.

Awsome stuff!!!!!!!!

Congrats to you and your mom, and Kudos to Jen for killing the clydesdale with horns.....

Did the previous owner of Jen's buck want his saddle back?

Sounds and looks like a great place.
congrats on the nice bucks.
Great to see familys hunt together!
Most of all thanks for sharing the pictures!!

After rereading your post Big D, I have to admit I missed the running shot at 245 yards... suppose I was entranced by the pics. Having now had time to consider the said running heart shot, two things come to mind....


1) That was a damn fine shot!!!

2) It sounds a lot like you.....you probably watched that buck for ten minutes feeding calmly, and hoping he would run like hell and make the shot interesting.

Not this time, it was funny. The buck started running one way, I shot and missed (it happens), he stopped cold. I had just enough time to work the bolt and he started running back the way he came, that is when I hit him. With your counter torque break on the gun I think he couldn't tell where the noise was coming from.

Showing 1 kill picture is nice, showing 2 kill pictures is a little much, showing 3 kill pictures is just wrong. Sir step away from the deer, step AWAY FROM THE DEER!

Great job! Those bucks needed killin!

I want her cap: that is a way cool hat and obviously has magic powers to draw in monster sized bucks.

Just another Missouri buck that needed killin. 125 Nosler BT, 308 ar-10.

Nice buck Griz!!! Congrats and thanks for the pic.

nice, another Missouri Buck Bit the big one!

Great looking buck, nice shooting OVB.

Welcome to the forum OVB, and thanks for posting the pic. How about some details, caliber, range, bullet....etc.? Or did you stick him?

Last day of bow season, last 10 minutes of daylight, only shot, 35 yards. Found him this morning.

Beautiful buck!~!~! With the height of those 3s he might go in the book!

Good job! Very nice.

35 yards is a tough shot on a live target, nice shootin. Next year I am going hunting with my AR-15 and one of these 147 grain subsonics with a powdered tungsten core.
