Thread: Bushstalking those Fallow

G'Day Fella's,

Well done Steve 338!

Not long back myself, from an overnighter up at Toofa's place, looking for some sport.
I was up there with a mate of mine (Dave) and his 10yo son, Andrew.
Saturday evening, Dave and Andrew spotted a pure white Fallow doe in the slightly open bush and were able to stalk in to around 100 meters.
Andrew then got prone, lined up the doe with his Dads .223Rem and shot it thru the chest!
The animal only went 2 foot after the shot and that was All Down!

This was Andrews first Deer and we were all very pleased with his shooting and success!

By the way, Dave loads and shoots Sierra 69grain BTMK thru the 1 in 9" twist .223 barrel.
The only recoverable meat, was the hind legs and back steaks as both front shoulders were a real mess!
That .223 Sierra bullet combo do a great job!

Doh!
