Tasty vittles for sure. Are you shooting a Steyr-Mannlicher?
 
Yep! It emerged in the discussion Can plains game A Frames or TSX bullets be 30% lighter? https://www.africahunting.com/threads/can-plains-game-a-frames-or-tsx-bullets-be-30-lighter.45537/ that Von S. and I unknowingly hunted the same area in Pennsylvania in the late 80's. That brought back old souvenirs and triggered the posting of this late 80's pic. Nice tender and juicy little "antlerless" (2 tags over the counter if memory serves, available in addition to the 1 buck tag, over the counter too - at least in those days).
It is indeed a Steyr Mannlicher Luxus, circa early 1980's, in .270 Win, with a Zeiss 1.5-6x42 30 mm tube scope with rail mounted on claw mounts, the original, and still the best, detachable mount system. My first 'nice' gun, and to this day maybe my all-time favorite.
