    Semi custom 6.5x284. 140 AMAX hand loads. They are devastating on these little bodied deer.

    Yeah, I've used the 6.5X284 on Sitka blacktails with good results. Hope she continues to have success with it.

    I bought it 5 years or so ago. Took me a while to find the right load but since then it's killed muleys, coues and elk with shots ranging from 400 to 690. I love it.

    That's a nice sized Coues. What unit were you in? I did one Coues hunt down near Sasabe in 36c, saw tons of deer but missed my buck. Hope to try again one day. They are so hard to see!

    Thank you sir! I'm a little OCD when it comes to field photos. It's not just the preservation of the animal but also trying to capture the moment of happiness after all the hard work pays off. Sounds weird but I know every hunter knows the feeling.

    Yeah, me too. Pet peeves are back of truck, severed heads, and tongues hanging out. I've messed up a few of my pictures but I do put some effort into the picture. Appreciate the effort of others to do the same. Thanks.
