Nice shot. Reduced load 308 I'm assuming? Looks like it did a dandy job. Where'd he hit her?

Hit her in the neck as she swung around to bat a fly, bullet passed through and rentered at the last rib(large entrance wound), the blood you see under her hind quarters is wher two fragements of the bullet exited. 75 yards

reduced load, LC brass, br2 primer, and 45.0 gr of imr 4350, 150 nbt 2300 fps.

Re: First deer

Nice.

Friend of mine bought his son a TC icon 308 for hunting. He is using 308 125 grain cor-bon in it. Says it does not recoil.

Hoping he can handle full power loads in a few years
