Right on, what's the story

Strong work Chris...

I want one!

 

[KoozeDeer]

Thank you! Those Coues are a worthy opponent.

Good work on the Ghost deer. Baffling how those things just disappear in the desert. Cool that you got a buck. What unit? Was it OTC or did it take points?

36a. It was my second pic for rifle season

Give us a run down on the rifle, scope and bullet used to dispatch your quarry please.

Gunwerks 6.5x284. Nightforce NXS 5.5-22 and I'm shooting VLD's about .040 off the lands

Nice job. With that set up I am hoping for a long range story to follow.

 

[KoozeDeer]

Are you loading yourself ? If so what is your recipe?

58g of retumbo gives me 2940 FPS.... .040 off lands, still playing with the sweet spot for COAL

I use 58 gr Retumbo also with BR2 primers. It works with 127 LRX at 3126, 140 VLD have not put through the Chrono, and 143 ELDX 3015. Out of 25" barrel

Hell yes congrats. I missed a big one at about 412. I was bummed about it. I was in 35b.

3015 is moving good
