My 2011 Coues Buck

Recommended Posts

My 2011 Southern Az Coues hunt!

 

After getting up at 4:00am in camp I headed out and arrived into position around 6:00 am. After glassing for a few hours we found this buck at 10:30 am. I decided to harvest him at 517 yards and 28 clicks with my new rifle. Green scored right at 83 and 3/8"!

Thanks guys for all the great comments. This was a tuff hunt and tons of fun all at the same time.

 

The rifle is a rem 700 300 RUM with a Hart Barrel topped with a zeiss scope. It took just over a year to get done, everything is custom on it. It weighs about 9.5 pounds with a 26" #5 contour barrel. Shooting the Berger 210 VLD at 3205 fps, and with 1/2 group at 300 yards I can max out at to 1475 yards with the MOA on the scope. Some other things on the rifle are: vais brake, David Tubbs light weight firing pin and spring for better lock time, glass and pilar bedded sheep hunters Hi-tech stock with a custom spray paint job by me ;) , oversized lug, cheek piece hand made by a friend Todd South alond with some milling work on the bolt, 20moa NF base, and seekins rings.
