Out this week and took this little fella with the .308
I was interested in learning what sort of age this might be from the head. Haven't had a chance to remove the tusks yet to see if they've started to close over at the root, but this Munty stood out because of it's sheer size. I haven't come across one as large as this on my permission before. It measured close on 53cm to the shoulder and a conservative estimate on weight would be between close on 19 to 20 Kilos. That's a good 5cm taller to the shoulder and I'd estimate almost perhaps 3 to 4 Kilos heavier than most of the bucks that I come across.
