 :tup: all.
"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter

Missouri River Breaks Bull MT. Public land guided hunt. I am the luckiest hunter in the world & pulled one of the 60 rifle bull tags. I'll try to post a story once I get home. I am not good at scoring but the guide scored him at 340 gross.

It makes me feel better that general rifle's been open for 2 and half days now and there are no photos on here. 

It shouldn't.  But it does  :chuckle:

Those rifle tags can be tough to fill. Fantastic bull! He looks to be all of 340" to me! Well done.

Nice bull.  You always seem to draw some good tags and kill nice animals.

Did it look like it might have been an old wound?

My brother was able to get it done yesterday for his first bull. 533 yards with his 6.5 Creedmore, recovered the bullet just inside the hide on the opposite shoulder. He was with 8 cows raking a tree.
