Good job, great shot!
I am surprised you don't send a tissue to wipe the milk from its mouth. :lol: I still don't get it....it was a tiny doe that was lactating.... :roll: Wasn't with a fawn, was with a nubbin buck just a little smaller then her. But with the weather we have had, it may have stunted her growth! A 10 point buck taken off that lease weighed 90 pounds!

I will hunt family land later in the year that always has big deer on it (in another state)!

My friend said she thought about 185lbs. She does Taxidermy and will be doing my mount.

I have alot of ailments to prevent me from picking up heavy things (Dr orders nothing over 40lbs) so that why the lady guess.

You have to load them to a hosting site and paste the [ IMG ] link here. Check out this thread for how-to: viewtopic.php?t=84314

I do hope you're successful, because until you post pics you didn't kill a deer. :mrgreen:

No I don't give a crap how big or small it was. A jar of mustard is generally our first place prize for winners of shooting contests here. Thought about a velvet Elvis painting, but mustard won out.
Since you were the first to post a pic, you won some mustard :mrgreen:

That'll work. 'Course it's not too hard to kill a deer that already has a hole shot in his heart. :lol: That's pretty amazing. I've seen more than a few deer and javelina that had been previously shot with various weaponry, but never one in the heart.

How did the inside look? Any idea what velocity your loads are shooting?

I don't have a chrono (Christmas is coming) but I'm running 18 grains even. At 18.5 I was getting flat primers and in LC brass the primers were coming out. The max listed is 18.8 for 1924, the starting is 17.2 for 1748, so a guess (would be wrong) says around 18 something

Two does have been killed with this bullet between Me and my daughter. I'm pleased with it, so far. Distances between 50 and 75 yds.

I'm leaving for my hog camp in the morning. I'm going to use the 150 gr. G.D.s in my Mini 14. hopefully the creek will be down and the hogs are around.
