7prc 180vld-h vs 6x6 elk

[Hoggetter]

Fun hunt in Co again, third season otc bull. Thought I would share a couple pics of the bull and the shot. I used a 26" 7prc and one shot with a berger 180 vld-h handload @3015fps through the front shoulder quartering towards me at 300yds. The bullet blew through scapula and completely dispatched the heart and lungs. The bull took three steps and fell forward on its face dead as a hammer.
This year we were covered up in bulls every day compared to the past years.

Nice bull. Congratulations. That 7prc with the bullet you used really did a number on him.
