This is my second year with this gun. Indiana just allowed low cal. rifles and I switched from a shotgun to this. Its a Ruger model 77/44 bolt. Like I said 150yrd is my max distance with that gun, however this fall I switched to a heavier bullet. Last year I was shooting 180gr this year I went to a 200gr. At 150 yrd with the 180 I was getting about 6" of drop I only shot the 150 distance a couple time with the 200gr and felt the drop wasnt much different, but obviously I was wrong. To be honest I am not sure what scope I have. I'll take a look and let you know.

I have heard of the antler thing before and told him that too. I did not see any of it so I cannot comment on his shot placement, he did tell me his scope was fogged up some, normally he's a pretty dead on with his ML.

Nice looking doe.....I am heading out tomorrow morning in the rain. Did not go this morning as the winds are blowing pretty good and I want the property to settle down a bit.
