We had a group of does come out about 30 minutes before dark. This buck came out about 10 minutes later. He was at 281 yards when I ranged him. He sees that group of does and made a beeline for them. When I got him to stop he was at 257 yards. He hit him a little back and single lunged him. So he ran around 100 yards before expiring. We were using a Winchester model 70 243 topped with a Vortex 4-16x44 shooting Winchester power max 100 grain hollow points. This deer looks like he had the mange on his head and neck. I've never seen that before.
