mikee Posted November 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 After a few blank outings I finally managed to christen the new .308 this morning, a munty doe from a high seat overlooking a large block of cover crop maize at about 75yds and then I had a stalk through a small wood where about 80 reds have been making a right mess and managed to get a spiker stag at about 150yds as he walked between two trees. after reading a couple of threads on here lately about calibers and bullets and deer running on, both were shot with 168gn A-max which put them both down where they stood with heart/lung shots, good exit wounds on both and both hearts and lungs turned to soup but no real damage to any meat, I will be sticking to these I think, if either animal has run off there was enough blood to follow. mikee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cocker3 Posted November 14, 2011 Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 nice pece of kit buddy and well done on the deer you planing to put a mod on that ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikee Posted November 14, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 14, 2011 its got an Ase North Star on it, when my FAC came back they had missed the mod off so I took the pic before I got the amended cert back with mod on there, Its a lovely gun to shoot and the recoil is less than I expected, I can watch the bullet hit and the animals go down in the scope which I didnt expect to be able to do mikee Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
