That’s a fine buck JP, congratulations. We would count our Sitka black tails as a 3x3 with that configuration of antler points, eye guards don’t count here.
Now go get that rifle sorted out, or replace it. I have a love in my black heart for the 25-06, it’s a wicked little round.

Just browsing through here today, that's quite a deer I had a misfire Tuesday on a small deer at about 30 feet with a slug. I had fired the gun a few days before all was fine oh well going to to try the cleaning approach.

Looks like a large deer. Surprised it's only 182 dressed.

There is a Savage shooters website. Lots of info there. I have an old 110 that had the same problem. Posted on the website and it was explained exactly how to adjust the firing pin. I bet the axis bolt and pin is about the same as the 110. I would try that website.

It’s interesting how different areas count the antlers differently. Most people I know here would call this a 4 pointer or a 4 by 4. Every now and then I hear someone that would call it an 8 pointer and that makes me cringe lol.

I really like the 25.06 too. All the animals me and my kids have shot with it haven’t gone far.

Yep, it’s a kid friendly round also. I was eleventeen when I started shooting the round.

Wow! What a deer! Congratulations!


I don't care how nice the hand soap smells, you should never walk out of the restroom sniffing your fingers.

Nice deer,

I shot a smaller 8 when I hunted Manitoba that had the same coffee colored antlers. Ours here are more yellow tinted than coffee.

What part of Manitoba are you? I hunted with a fella outta Poplarfield, and from there we were a couple hours north. My guide was from Arborg.

I didn't see any deer up there until I started to rattle, then I saw deer regularly.

Nice Buck J.P.

If you let him walk for a few more years,
he'd have grown himself some impressive antlers. laugh
