Can I come hunting with you? What a bloody ripper :thumbsup: good effort and thank you very much for posting put a smile on the dial after a tough day:)
Wow - what amazing clean open Bush
Wish ours was remotely like that :-(
Well done - did you assess where the shot went - heart shot ???
whattabeaut!
Well done.
Yeah, because there was a log in the way i couldnt aim as low as i wanted in that shoulder area. Was a couple of inches too hit but lots of lung blood so at least one lung was stuffed.
Those SSTs esp as they super perforance and going out of my 24 inch barrel are going pretty quick so i have found they not as great at dropping them in the spot at close range than a soft point 243.
I use them in my 308 as its my long range and backup rifle but tend toend up shooting animals in close lol.
Last hind i shot ran 50-60m before it fell over too with a perfert shoulder shot so i do prefer my 243 in close and the 308 for over 200m plus
That's a fine looking stag, great story and some real nice bush to hunt. No doubt you will endeavour to hit that spot again.
What an awesome stag bro! Well done
Nice mate! Just got my first Public land Red a week or two ago. Haven't seen a Stag yet though!
great stuff,enjoy the venni.
Who cares about the number of points - IMHO, a trophy’s value is in the challenge / experience it reminds you of, so that one is awesome. Hope to have one like it on my garage wall one day!
Wow just read this, well done!
I like storys like this. Good skills chap.
