I got a buck yesterday with my Marlin 336 in 35 Remington. Load was 38.0 grains IMR 4320 under an Accurate 360-200A bullet cast from 50/50 CoWW/Pure plus 2% Tin. Range about 130 yards. It was a classic end to a deer hunt. Had started the day off hunting from 1st light on a cool 24 degree morning with a nice frost. Saw so many deer that I lost count throughout the day. Finally at 4:28pm as I sat in a 1.5 acre clump of trees in my corn field looking towards a woodline I saw a thick body deer step to the edge of the woods and stop just before coming out into the cut corn. Swinging the rifle around to take a look through the scope I knew for sure it was a buck because of the size in spite of not being able to see the head at 1st. Then I saw antlers poking up above the brush that was blocking my view of the deer's head. That was all I needed to make up my mind. I shifted around in my folding hunting chair and crouched down to shoot under some limbs right in front of me, held just behind the shoulder and squeezed. Recoil made me lose the sight picture but a hit was confirmed by the loud thwack echoing back from the woods when the bullet hit meat. By then it was about 15 minutes after sunset and as such blood was not really red anymore, the whole world was black and white. And I didn't remember to bring my flashlight of course. Well it took about a dozen minutes of walking around in the dark but finally ran across the deer laying on his belly with his chin on the ground almost as if he'd simply dropped down to sleep. Not a bit of white hair showing anywhere. He ran about 40 or 50 yards. The bullet hit right behind the shoulder and exited at the rear of the ribs on the offside. I'm guessing he is a 3 year old based on size, muscularity and main beam thickness. He's only a 4 point because he had no brow tines, which is common for the area. Some people call this type antler a "Crab claw" for obvious reason. I'm happy with him along with the 5 point I got about 500 yards across the field earlier this year with my 32 Special. Both with cast bullets. Very satisfying getting them with bullets you made yourself. Pardon the dark picture but that's what you get after sunset.
