Default first wall hanger

Well, last saturday was the VA opener for rifle season. I went out in the AM and did not see a single deer. That afternoon I hiked up to atop a ridge below a mountain laurel thicket hoping to catch the buck that was tearing up all the trees around me. Not 15 minutes after sitting down, two dogs come zig-zagging by, I thought about moving, but figured it was too late. At 4pm I look to my right and see antlers coming up over the ridge. A nice 10 pointer pops up 15 yards to my right. He looks around in the draw below me then locks onto me, but doesnt spook, just bounds down the hill about 10 yards. He proceeds to work his way around below me, stepping out in a perfect clearing 50 yards off. I settled the crosshair on my muzzle loader on his shoulder blade and let 'er rip. This buck went 30 yards.

What do you think he is going to score? I have heard just 100" but also have heard 125"

Can anyone get the pictures up for me, I will email them to you here?

Thanks!
