Just got back from a mule deer hunt on the eastern plains of Colorado. I shot this big boy the first evening at about 110 yds using my custom 7MM Mag built by Mark Gordon at Short Action Customs - Thanks Mark for a great hunting rifle!!





The body on this deer was massive - weighed in close to 350# and had a 28" neck on him!!
