Hello all.
On Queens Birthday weekend 2018 I got my first ever stag.

He's only a 9 pointer, however some of the locals said that he's the best they've seen in a few years out of that block.
Shot with my Zastava Mauser .270 using 130gr Norma softpoints at about 260m.

The young fellow that I was hunting with (who took the pics) had one of those scopes with the multiple reticles, in the heat of the moment he overestimated the drop and used the second bar on the reticle, put his shot clean over the animals back. I dropped mine...
