I grew up and hunted in South Eastern Montana,If you have never hunted there, Big Muleys are abundant. I had my sights on a large 4-5 Point when a Buck got up and was walking away from me, I could not see how many points this guy had but the spread was insane and this was from nearly 200 Yards so I shifted my aim and harvested myself what I fully expected to be a Boone and Crocket sized Deer(my brother shot a B&C deer a year or to back) well I went to check out my kill. My 1903 Springfield almost would not hang in the rack of my HUGE 3 point his antlers were average diameter but only 3 point So any time you harvest a nice buck enjoy it you never really know what you get until you put your hands on it.
