Gussy's Buff Video

[Nuclearcricket]

Gussy, your shot was a little like the last buck I shot here in PA with my Marlin 45-70. I held the rifle just a tad too long and the front sight was starting to bounce up and down some. When he took one more stop out I pulled the trigger as the sight was coming up and hit him in the spine just above the shoulder blade. I have never seen anything fall that fast in my life. Now this was back before I had seen the light and moved over to the dark side. That rifle seems to like a 300 gr hollow point over a modest charge of smokeless. Even tho it was a jacketed hollow point, all the damage was contained to an area about the size of a tennis ball. I would guess that there was very little to almost no meat loss do to bullet placement.
You really gota love those big ole fat slow moving slugs. They just get the job done and keep on trucking. And they only kill in the end that is important.
