My "hillbilly" RemPac .45 helped harvest this respectable buck using a 200 grain SST on top of 61 grains of N-120.
Was pretty much bang flop at 200 yards

Very nice, and congrats! Nice picture as well.
Awesome pic. What wmu were you in? Did you see many deer this week?
Smokeless rules...
WMU-37 and the deer sightings were good. Six does feeding in the food plot lured him out. Turnips and late season is the ticket. The plot has been demolished .[IMG]http://i32.photobucket.com/albums/d3...psitz4miwa.jpg[/IMG]

Congratulations on the hunt...He looks like a great deer
Great picture, nice shooting! Congrats!
Great outcome for all your efforts...I have sworn by late season Turnips in food plots for years....good that you have posted the results (pics) for others to see the benefit.
Tip of my hat to you !!!
Great pics. Congrats!
Really big buck.
That's a fine buck , congrats.
Awesome deer and food plot. A question though. How do you carry your ramrod?
I carry a well made three piece collapsible with a spin-jag
congrats nice plot I haven't had much luck with Turnips deer around here didn't like them but they sure do like the beans
I had a great crop of them the deer just didn't like them I even plowed the snow off the plot so they could get at them. SW ON picky deer. lol
Your experience isn't isolated. I've read others having the same issues. I would keep plugging away at it. I'd do a fall winter wheat planting with a brassica to introduce them to the annual. You'll prob get a quicker leaf production compared to a globe producing annual. Grain mixed with a light brassica seeing has been one of my easiest pots to grow and a great draw.
Let's talk about the gun. Although I can determine your scope brand, I am not sure of the gun action you used. What is it? There are quite a few smokeless muzzle loaders (I don't mean Savages) showing up at the range using different actions. When you say "hillbilly Rempac" do you mean the guy from Doug's Message Boards?
Youre correct, HillBill (not hillbilly) put the gun together for me. I lucked out finding a pristine 700ML and sent the rifle to him along with a fluted .45 pacnor barrel and HS stock. Bill had the rest of the components. The gun is a tack driver with the unsaboted 275 grain Parker match hunter smooth sized to my bore, but $2 a pop I'm working with the saboted 200 SST and 195 Barnes.
Still needs a Jewell HVR trigger
