Except when you’re nine and starting out it’s more like “ If it’s brown - it’s down “. Just had two nights away. 20 plus deer seen. 3 shot. 2 missed. Cooking on fires and camping out. Doesn’t get any...

Thats a good outcome. It's such an easy caliber to get to shoot well. With all projectile weights up to 150grn. Why it's not more popular for general use is beyond me. It's about my maximum tolerable...
