7 RUM strikes at 750

[ol_spark]

Petey,
I was really surprised that your factory gun ,7RUM, would make the distance. But when you hit that deer, it dropped right now, not even a tail twitch. Makes me wonder why I quit shootin' the 7 and went bigger. Anyhow, it was a nice day for sure, if it hadn't been for the PGC stopping by. I still say those road hunters were pi$$ed at not seeing anything and burning up a tank of gas so they called in the fuzz. Why else would they come at us from two directions? That makes twice this year that I've heard the PGC say there are very few deer around. Dah!!What was everyone been trying to tell them for 3 years now? So now they are saying the hunters were giving false reports and their information was not accurate. The PGC doesn't have a glue in my book, but that's a different topic.

Sandy did a terrific job for shooting a strange gun, under different conditions than she is used to shooting, and considering the weather was not that nice either. My hat is off to her and her husband should be proud. After all, she has taken a deer at a longer range than he has. hehehe

Maybe he's interested in buying the 338 tommy?

Too bad you couldn't stick around for the final drag. It was a tall one with lots of loose leaves under the snow. My footing wasn't too good so I doubt that I was much help. Either way at least we didn't have to wear the waders and use the long rope. Of course a winch with an 800 foot rope would have really come in handy.
