deer season report

well ever since cool weather set in I've been shooting my LR rigs meticulously sighting in and running the charts, had them dialed in well too.

had them dialed in till my groups, if I judged the wind right, were on POA and groups ran 5" at 830 yards.

The spot I decided to glass from in the past has offered shots from 450-770 yards.

well for some reason the deer are hanging just at the edge of the timber, out of 15 legal bucks, the farthest sighting has been 390 yards.

this guy showed up this morning at 7:00


no dialing, no wind compensation, just a straightforeward 307 yard shot, the 160 gr accubond at 3575 fps literaly knocked him off his feet, without so much as a quiver. maybe will have a story to tell from doe season
