The Johnny King Buck is the official new Buckmaster’s Perfect Category World Record and Safari Club International #2 All Time Record Deer at 226 6/8”
But B & C only scores it as 180 1/8.

A World-Record Cover-Up?
King contacted official Boone-and-Crockett Club measurer John Ramsey, who green-scored the antlers before the required 60-day drying period had elapsed.
Ramsey measured the rack as a clean 12-point typical. As soon as he tallied up the numbers, he was stunned. The antlers grossed in the low 220s and netted more than 215 typical B&C points. Ramsey told King that depending on how the broken beam might be interpreted by B&C, he could be the owner of a new Wisconsin record and possibly the new world-record typical!
He told King he had determined the right G-3 was an “abnormal point” because it came more from the inside base of the G-2 instead of the top of the main beam. According to scoring procedure, that also put the left G-3 in the abnormal category. That meant the rack would have to be scored as a mainframe 5-by-5 with two abnormal points (both G-3s) instead of as a typical 6-by-6 with no abnormal points.
It also meant that instead of netting in the 215-plus range, the typical score of King’s buck would drop into the low 180s.
Buckmasters Declares it a Record
In the meantime, King contacted Mike Handley, executive director of Buckmasters Whitetail Trophy Records of Montgomery, Ala. After reviewing photos of the deer, Handley promptly flew to Wisconsin and scored the rack on King’s kitchen table. Just as Handley had suspected, the rack was the largest typical he had ever seen. His composite score (gross) came in at 219 5/8 inches.
(The rack’s official Buckmasters gross score came in at 198 2/8, because the Buckmasters scoring system does not include a rack’s inside spread measurement.)
King’s buck was soon declared a new world record by Buckmasters Trophy Records. The BTR full-credit scoring system uses the same measurements as B&C, except no inside spread measurement is included in the final score (which in King’s case was 21 3/8 inches) and no deductions are taken for side-to-side differences. The BTR perfect category is equivalent to the B&C typical category.

There has been a lot of discussion over the Internet the past few days regarding the final score of the Johnny King Buck from Wisconsin, and how this score was determined. Once the necessary details are gathered, the Boone and Crockett Club's Record's Department will present all the facts on this trophy, covering everything from common based points, unmatched abnormal points, and broken antlers to official measuring, panel scoring and score shopping.

Truly a trophy in any record book but I've always said B&C is as political as any origination out there today. Milo would have a fit if someone was to take the top spot and he'll do anything to keep it... Just Saying!!! 
Yep. Milo is a butt nugget. I can't wait till his score is topped beyond his ability to obscure
