United Kingdom Muntjac

Drove over to the UK for a little hunting, just over a weekend. The weather was wicked, howling wind and sideways rain. A lot of water laying in the fields and low areas flooded. But was with a group and we enjoyed a good time. Anytime out in the woods is a good time. I used an R93 in 243 Win, 90gr Accubonds. They were more than enough for these little Muntjac.

Driving into the Chunnel Train on the way to UK.


Countryside


One morning I saw tons of birds, pheasant, crow, geese, ducks, doves, etc. Was a spectacular bird show. Too bad I didn't have a shotty


Muntjac are quite an interesting deer, and very small. Seems like they are always on the move so you don't have time to ponder your shot, if you got it, take it. This one was moving through pretty thick woods so I got in front in a small 2 foot opening and let him walk into an Accubond.


I was able to shoot three one evening.


Heading back.


Entering the Chunnel.


35 minute train ride sure beats 3 hours on a Ferry. I'll NEVER forget a Ferry ride across Lake Michigan back in the 60's . . . during a bad storm . . . thot we were going down that night! Was prayin' up a storm while hugging the toilet with both hands.
