It's been a great Christmas break for putting some meat in the freezer.
Christmas Eve is when this fair doe presented a shot.
She stood broadside at about 60 yards when I pulled the trigger. The ball passed through just behind the shoulder. She ran some 50-60 yards before she expired. She dressed out about 80 pounds.
Last night presented me with this...
She ran up to the feeder (yes these animals where both shot under a deer feeder and I ask that this not turn into a discussion on rather or not that is "hunting". It's how the majority of hunting is done here.) with nine others in the sounder. She was broadside at about 40 yards when I took the shot. To my suprise she dropped in her tracks. The round ball entered behind the shoulder and exited through the shoulder blade on the other side.
Both animals where taken with my .54 GPR. The load was 80 grains of 3F, a .015" pillow ticking patch, and a .530" round ball.
I hope that everyone had a very Merry Christmas and hope for a great 2016 for all of y'all!
