"Kipplauf Wapiti" would be a great name for a dish at a fancy restaurant.

I am back from my Kipplauf mule deer hunt. I spotted a decent buck for the area I was hunting sunrise the first morning of my hunt and it took me until late afternoon of the fourth day to be able to get within range for a shot. I looked over a lot of bucks over those four days but had my heart set on this one. It was cold,rainy and very windy over the four days I hunted him and I was out watching him looking for an opportunity to move on him all day Long every day, but could not get within 500 yards.
On the fourth afternoon we found a group of does and moved in to check them out. As we peeked over the ridge we saw the buck at 223 yards ( thanks Eddie for selling me the Leica RF Binos they worked great), and I was able to get a shot. He went right down in his tracks and rolled down hill and it looked like he was trying to get back up so I put a second shot in him to make sure. It was no problem opening the rifle flicking the fired 30-06 case out and reloading even wearing thin liner gloves. I am very happy with the performance of my

Kipplauf.
I then switched the 30-06 barrel for my 222 barrel and went coyote calling. One shot 172 yards.

Nice job Matt!! Nice critters!!
"That if you properly respect what you are after, and shoot it cleanly and on the animal’s terrain, if you imprison in your mind all the wonder of the day from sky to smell to breeze to flowers—then you have not merely killed an animal. You have lent immortality to a beast you have killed because you loved him and wanted him forever so that you could always recapture the day." —R.Ruark
