Hunter Henninger – 2009 Oregon Mule Deer Hunt

A great father and son Mule Deer hunt in the Breaks of Pilot Rock – Oregon

Looks like to me that Hunter Henninger has become quite the shooter, following his dad’s footsteps in using the 257 Weatherby.   aka “257 BAD” 

Many years back when I was working for Fisherman’s Marine & Outdoor in Portland, OR, Brian Henninger called me and said “Frank I think I need another Weatherby” “What do you think about 257 as hunting caliber?”

I of course told him that is a great round that can be used for anything in North America for hunting.   Sometimes you might even wanted to tag out a gray digger at 500 yards and see them fly!

The amount of big game that Henninger’s Weatherby MK V 257 has or will have taken at any range shooting will be history and future!  One of the finest rounds that Weatherby has produced for big game hunting.

I remember a big Mulie buck Brian himself took in the Antelope, Oregon area one year.   350 yard downhill running Mulie that was anchored with one shot!

As said by Brian Henninger, Hunter’s Dad!

“This deer was huge…Hunter from 250yds! 257 mag!”
