Deer, not long range

[SEGARE]

26 Dec this showed up on the Bang-flop, no twitch. Not a fan of tracking, especially through the ravine between the hide and the clearing.

Congrats on the fine buck!!


I've been an advocate of this shot placement for 30+ yrs. Like you, I hate tracking and a high shoulder shot virtually eliminates it. Even with pass-through shots, the meat lost might amount to a couple of burgers. The virtual certainty of recovery is a small price to pay.

Bamban, did you make that bullet comparator? Like that is so slim and never seen it before

Sorry, no I did not. Creedmoor Sports sells them.

Thank you. Sorry, I missed your response somehow.

Happy New Year. Wishing y'all the best of health.

Great setup, 215's at 2835 are formidable to a long way out there!

Is your load with N560 compressed at all?

Congratulations on the fine harvest.

Took some pictures for you. FYI, I use a long drop tube. When I ordered a set of funnels directly from Sather I spec'ed long drop tubes.

Thanks, looks like I need to find myself some N560!

Happy New Year, Bamban!
