Well done. Talk about a capable but forgotten caliber. A friend has a lovely little falling block stalking rifle in 7.5x55 which was built between the wars. It has claw mounts and he added a modern Zeiss. It has accounted for a lot of Virginia whitetail deer.
 
Congratulations.
 
Congrats, this rifle/ammo combo is amazingly accurate for a military rifle.
 
Congrats Reiver25 for a nice trophy still in velvet. I really like the K-31 which has an amazing trigger for a military rifle. I have actually shot a few MOA groups with cast bullets out of mine. I used to shoot it in military matches.
 
Nice weapon and cool to see a roe in velvet.
 
Congrats and thanks for sharing!

I realize how hard the bug has bit. I’m on the cusp of safari #2 and I’m looking to plan #3 with my 11 year old a year from now while looking at my work schedule for overtime and computing the math of how many shifts are needed….

I'd like to get some too.

My wife (a biologist, like me) had to have a melanoma removed from her arm last fall.
