wow twocan! He's awesome!

we got our first glimpse of the trophy running around our place today. He was smart and stayed obscured as he headed to bed - but it was certainly him. I sure hope we can close the deal before seasons closes.

I shot this doe last night with my AR. It's the first time I've taken a deer with a rifle chambered for .223 and when I shot this doe it dropped like it was knocked out with a club. It didn't take one step. It just fell over, dead. I am very impressed with this cartridge and will be using it as my primary deer rifle from now on.

FYI - I used the Federal 62 grain Fusion round and took the shoot at around 100 yards. The bullet fully penetrated the doe and heart and upper lungs looked like mush. They were obliterated. The doe dressed out at around 110lbs so I'm guessing it weighed around 140-150 lbs.

Congrats on the Doe! The .223 is nothing to sneeze at when its put in the right place. Congrats!




Opening morning fun!






That's a beast! Great mass, lots of points, whats left to want?

Congrats man! :D
