Well done, looks like a great trophy. What sort of rifle were you using ?

Blaser R93 Pro with short 19" tracking barrel, in 9,3x62 shooting 293gr RWS UNI. Shot entered between neck and left shoulder and ended somewhere in the hind right thigh. Stag was shot just under the top of the steep hill, under some house size rocks - me and my friend dragged it for 2 hours - some 300m downhill over crappy terain toward nearest road where photo was taken.

You've usually had terrific performance from that bullet. "IT" happens, sometime.
What speed?

RWS Factory load - 2400 fps (measured). It is the second one I got from 9.3x62, first one from shot at that close range. Always splendid results tho...you should have seen the stag at the shot - jumped with its feet over 1m from the ground and when landed began to run (tried at least) but with every step that was shorter and shorter - it went lower and lower - obviously sick and then just lied down and died without the kick. Other bullets I got from 9.3x74R going 2280 fps are as advertised.

Well I have just put it next to the stag I shot - just across the valley - 500m away - 15 years ago - and similarity is stunning (the old one has yellow bone and is mounted on the wooden plate):

Nice stags I see pictures. On the travel channels of eastern Europe and looks like beautiful places to hunt. Is it hard to get permits and how hard is it to own firearms there? I'm half Hungarian does that help on a permit? Lol.

Mouse, great trophies! What are the weights on those? I ask because most of my red stag stalking is in Scotland and I'm not used to the Continental practice of weight and its difficult for me to estimate them. Moreover, I've been debating doing a hunt in Poland one day and I'd like to get an understanding of weight.

Thanks!

From my Scotland thread, but makes sense to add them here. Three eight point stags from Perthshire:

Oh missed that one - sorry Chasseur - if you are asking about antlers then those are 6-7kg, while fully grown stags weight (on the hook with head and legs but without intestines) is 160-220kg.

Meanwhile - managed to bag another on Sunday:

Was following this guy with hinds and a smaller "side" stag from early Sunday morning (still dark) - there were other hunters on them as well. Reds outmanouvered other guys and got pass me as well - however I put in higher gear and 2 hours later high just under the top of big hill connected with them in a thick bush area where nobody sane would follow since it was so thick that stag would sence you before any reasonable sight of him...I pushed it quite some and with some luck spooked the smaller stag (that wasn't quite sure what I am) but it only made a couple of strides - just enough to unsettle old stag that came through and chased it off but made one turn to much - at 7m I shot it through both shoulders with 8x68S - mad 30m dash and he was down. Picture as it ended.






Found the bullet (Blaser CDP loaded by RWS) on the off-side peaking through hide



...pic with "grandeln" aside



On stag - it is an older management sub trophy to be taken out...but it was a Hunt!

A very very fat pre rut stag I took one late evening using my .300WM. (Sako TRG-S)
He was a real monster bodied stag and the meat/fat was thick and sweet.
The wallow mud has almost dried on his antlers and when I first saw him I thought..not big enough,too small and too far away..a long gut buster run of ups and downs to get near him,anyway I made the decision to go for it.

Check the width/condition of his back.
