Was wondering who was doing all that hooting and hollaring!
Awesome Man! Good luck rest of the hunt!
It was for good reason! When the first got got pulled, no one made a peep, silence, as if they weren't present. Even the biolgist said something along the lines of "You should be excited"
Gave him a Remington Model 700 300winmag I traded for months ago,(never shot it until today, its dead on)
Congrats on the animals down!
How did that 300 do? I hunted wit the same rifle in high school, it was my dads and after almost loosing a deer to poor bullet performance with a .243 he told me to use the 300. I stopped using it after exploding a doe, yes it literally exploded! The Remington Core-Lokt bullet hit broadside in one shoulder and out the other. It didn't have time to expand, both holes were very small. The shock-wave of the impact split her belly open and out came her inners. I found her stomach steaming where she stood like it was surgically removed. Found her bedded under a tree about 50 yards away with her intestines hanging out. Now I use a 30-06 and I'm saving the 300 for when I get drawn for a Nilgai hunt. We now call the 300 "the cannon".
Another story to write later! Shot the wrong buck! Walked up to see this ones antlers fell off previously. Dad said saw a big antlered one, I threw the gun up on an axis in senna beans and pulled the trigger, must have been 2. Kinda disappointed I did not get the buck with antlers but still happy to have killed my first axis.
