Nice work. I thought a shottie might lack the precision for that but I guess at 30yd the buckshot would have minimal spread and would be confined to the head/neck. The chopper boys from the 60’s and 70’s were well served by their FNs etc. but a benelli m2 could well be a better option than a rifle?

Back in the good old days they were cheap enough not to pack a sad. Of course they'd be a business expense if you're a pro shooter.

FN or AR for culling and meat retrieval. 12ga for culling and leaving them on the hill.

I’ve shot plenty for meat recovery with the shotgun, you have a choke in which keeps the pattern tight and as your aiming for the head there isn’t too much meat wasted

There was a post on Facebook not long ago about some guy finding a .308 mag from the hoki region it had been there a while

Kudus to the controlled shooting. I noticed that as soon as the range got a bit much he redirected to other targets. A new shooter would be all over the place as they tried to decide which one to go for next. The clinical controlled approach reaped rewards time and again.
Its easy to get carried away on the emotional front, that they are shooting "precious deer" to these folk they are nothing but targets, to be hit in a timely manner and on to the next one.
I bet the recoil from the .300 BO is minimal. Looks like an O.D supressor as well.
Thanks for sharing.
