Managed to bag a buck on Stewart Is. trip. The 168gn went straight through and would probably try a much lighter bullet next time. It was an unexpected 'long range' shot too at 350ish yards. ...

Ha..been banging off a few of those Hornady 55grn soft nose jobs ? lately myself. They are capable of wasting some good meat on occasions.
