Very nice buck good job you nipple tickler. I love my 257. I have a 6-18 on it and a 3-18 on my 300, the best part about the high power is being able to judge the buck. Without it I would have killed a small 2 point last night (blacktail) as the light was fading he looked bigger through the binoculars. I do have to say if you get a higher powered scope the ones with 6X zoom are the ticket, I shot a bull once at 80 yards that must have been a high shoulder shot because it dropped him facefirst into the ground, as I ran up to him he got up and took off, at 30 yards I couldn't find him in my scope on 6 power (the lowest setting) so was not able to put another bullet in him.
Again, congrats on a great shot and awesome buck.
