Decided to hunt close to home on Election day and headed out to my friends 50 acres in Georgetown Texas. Had a couple of smaller 8's early chasing does when this guy showed up. I used a grunt tube to entice him in and worked to the tee.

Looks like a M70 Winchester Featherweight to me.

Thanks, Its a Custom C.G. Haenel I was told made in the 1930's can't verify. It is in 9.3 x 62. Its fully engraved metal with Octagon barrel and safari sites. It did a number on this buck. Neck shot with blood splattered all over the place, dropped like a rock.
