My new personal best is a 152 inch, 220 pound whole weight Webb County buck. I used my Tikka T3x in 7mm Remington Magnum with 140 grain Sierra Game Kings loaded to about 3150 fps. This bullet is too heavily built for whitetail deer IMO, although it certainly did the job. The shot went through both shoulders. This is a small trophy buck for this ranch. Taken in the last two weeks were a 225 inch, 206 inch, 199 inch, and 184 inch. Oh, this is a low fence ranch with native genetics.

I thought I took photos of the 225 and 206, but can't find them. Here is the 199: And here is me with Rick Kreuter, host of "Beyond the Hunt".
