My Best Whitetail was Last Monday.
Last Monday, November 27, 2017, was Opening Day for the PA Rifle Deer Season. At 3:35 P.M. I shot a 10-point buck here on my farm in my hayfield.
The buck was a lasered 163 yards from my ground stand. I used a .270 and a 140 grain handload. I fired two shots and have meat in the freezer as of noon today. Adam

Waidmannsheil Adam, sweet. Nothing like shooting a good buck on the opener, on your land. A great feeling and good eating for you's.
I also have a .270 (Sako AV Forester) and used 140gr handloads as well to shoot a lot of deer and fox in Germany, great caliber. I also have meet in the freezer, and the freezer is in Michigan, I retired last year

Dom,
Danke vielmals. My .270 was a Savage 110E and Sierra 140 grain spitzers and H414 powder. I am a .30 caliber fan with many .30-06 and .308 rifles. I do now have a new respect for the .270 and Savage rifles. Perhaps Jack O'Connor was right all along. LOL. Adam

Jack,
Thanks for the good wishes. It has been 13 years since my last buck here on the farm. I put in food plots and do not shoot does. Our deer numbers have rebounded as a result. Perhaps now a doe or two will be taken. Adam
