Smoothbore Blacktail Buck

[nw_hunter]

Got to try the drop-in 62 GM smoothbore out today on an Oregon Blacktail buck.That big ball sure does a number on them. :grin: Broadside shot at about 45 yards, just behind the shoulder and about 10 yards later he was down.

Only one day left for elk, and I sure would like to get a shot at one of those big boy's with the 62.

Danke schön! Kirrmeister, and "Thanks fellas"

I was really wanting to take an elk this fall with the 62, but you have to find one to get the chance, and didn't even find a fresh track.

I had a good time anyway, and was glad to score on the young buck.He will eat good this winter :grin:

Now I'll load it up with shot and go look for some grouse! Brad

Just a little spike, and didn't even think about the cam until he was hanging and skinned... :grin:

Congrats on the meat.

Bill, we didn't get any pics in the woods, and forgot all about taking any until we skinned it out. Here is one shot of the head.I hunt with a disability permit,and this lets me shoot any deer. Nothing for bragging rights , but should be great in the skillet

The rifle is a plain Jane T/C with a GM drop in 62 smoothie. Brad

Brad: Any blacktail taken with a smoothie is not "little." It is a big deal, and this one looks like a great eater. I tip my hat, sir!

Nice shooting....could you supply the load used for inquiring minds? Enjoy the Fall...Dan

Good job.

Our bow season is on and so far I haven't seen hide nor hair of a deer. A spike wouldn't get past me if it offerred a shot, I'll tell you. ;-)
