Shot a 6pt a few years ago that weighed 205. That's the heaviest one to my knowledge ever killed on our lease.
Only accurate rifles are interesting.

I have killed some that I'm almost certain would have been over 200# based upon their field dressed weights, but like 2dogs.....most of them have been in the mountains and not gutting them before trying to get them out wouldn't have made much sense.

I've killed several bucks over 200 lbs. We have weighed every buck we have killed since 1998 on our place, and our average weight on 4+ yr old bucks is 187 lbs. Most will weigh between 180 and 210. This year the three that have been killed were 241, 206, and 154. The 154 was a 4 or 5 yr old. He was just short. Very small mature buck. 200 lb mature bucks are not that uncommon anymore.
I've killed a 215, 212, 212, 210, 208, 206, 204, and 200 looking back through data. And quite a few more hovering just under that in the 190-198 range. All the deer that weighed that much were long and thick framed. Matt is that dressed weight or live weight ???? just to add,,,,,reason why i ask is i have seen some that field dressed around those weights

I actually weigh all my big bucks on real scales not the eyeball kind. I've killed more than a dozen bucks 200-252#. Killed a 241 and a 252 on consecutive days off the same hot doe..... when they start dressing out around 180 and 200 they some big deer . course i'll never see another where i hunt now . they just don't get close to that big .

Even well fed, the vast majority of mature bucks will not be 200. In Alabama. The closer you get to the equator, the smaller the individuals become.
Saskatchewan - sure.
