Default 2012 WT Buck

Had to pull the old one hander and rest the gun on my left arm, i knew the scope was coming but it was worth it! 300 yrds 6x4

That's a great shot. No big deal on the cut. You said you knew it was coming, yet you still put the shot in the kill zone. Good concentration and good job gettin 'er done! I have never been hit there by a scope, but I did get a fat lip from my grandpa's open sighted 303 British when a buck walked out in front of me on a powerline when I was 15. Yes I missed that buck.
