First post so I'll brag. Last three years.

Definitely worthy of bragging! Whereabouts?

We need some details on the rifle, load, and distance(s). Nice deer. Shoot straight, rdnck.

southwest Montana
top and bottom were 2013,14
shot with a long range express 45/70

480 grain montana precision swaging, what they call a spire point, looked like a postell with a small flat, 20 to 1
70 grains of swiss 1.5 mashed like crazy
.030 wad, fed 210 , everything going way to fast
accuracy was better than you would think

middle was 15 shot with a 30 inch #3 45/70
544 grain Brooks creedmoore spg
62 grains swiss 1.5 .1 compression
.030 cci br 1147 fps
much better. You can learn a lot in a year.

That's a heck of a first post and those are some great deer with anything but even cooler with a Sharps and bp loads. A little bragging isn't bad, congratulations.
