Invite him to his ceremony to get made then when he gets there pop him in the head with a 22?Walk over to him, tell him he should’ve stayed down, put one in his head.
Say “maybe you’ll keep your effing mouth shut next time” before you shoot him.Walk over to him, tell him he should’ve stayed down, put one in his head.
I don’t mean this to be a smart ass remark like it sounds, but are you sure you hit the deer? I might have missed it but don’t recall you mentioning you found any blood. I’ve seen sights get knocked off and deer missed closer than that. I’ve seen you shoot, so I’m confident you did your job but crazy things happen. I witnessed a guy kill a deer at 300 stepped off yards shooting offhand at the McBee reserve and later that day he couldn’t hit a target at 100 yards. His scope was off about 6-8” at 100 yards. The offhand shot that far was pure luck.I've killed (harvested would be a better term) more with subs than supers, but I'm speaking of deer.
Now, I've killed more pigs with supers than with subs and thinking back, I believe that's why I made the switch from subs to supers.
But, BUT, it was after I switched to supers that I started losing deer but harvesting pigs.
But what I can't wrap my mind around tonight is how this guy took two rounds to the boiler room and didn't have the decency to just die right there. That is, unless I all of a sudden suck at shooting at a broadside deer within 75yds and also at remembering where he was supposed to be when it was time to look for him.
Biggest buck I ever shot we tracked for 2 days. Never did find him. Broke the shoulder for sure so he likely ended up as coyote dinnerHope you find the deer. It's a sucky job looking for a crippled animal.
Hope that you find him tomorrow. While I have a couple 300 blackout rifles, I no longer use them for hunting medium sized game. Haven’t been able to put together a good bullet and velocity combination that works at all distances. Some worked better short range, others better at longer ranges. Admittly, I may have gave up on the cartridge a little to quickly.
I highly respect the opinions of @Michael458 and @RR. Michael458 uses a 100gr Raptor and RR uses the gorilla controlled chaos rounds. Both speaks highly of their choices, maybe I need to revisit the 300.
Glad to see you found him.
Every time.I keep hearing that's good stuff.
Any of you guys that are using this, are you getting pass throughs? I think that's the issue with what I'm using. Of the few deer that I've shot with either 115gr or (now) 125gr supers, I've gotten no blood.
