Original '74 Sharps

[rdnck]

Heck of a deal, gunner. Those round nosed 500 grain paper patched bullets never cease to amaze me. They always penetrate in a straight line, and I have never seen an animal hold one yet. Looking at that deer, it looks to me like you got over 50 inches of penetration and an exit. That rifle is 48 inches long, and that deer is longer than the rifle.

That is a big bodied deer, and no doubt a dominant buck that needed to be removed from the gene pool. Great job! Shoot straight, rdnck.
