Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......

J in the past several years that is mostly what I have been trying to do.

I have noticed the last year or so not so many, so I am certain that I have at least made a dent.

The 41 mag carbine got it done today... first deer with this rifle.

125 yard shot, dropped him in his tracks with a 210 grain Swift A-Frame.

Nothing much to tell... high shoulder shot put him down... the bullet kept on going for parts unknown.

The entrance doesn't show in the picture... but the exit was about the size of a nickel.

I think it speaks more to the bullet than anything.... those Swift bullets are worth every penny.

Actually you can see the entrance if you look close...its nothing more than a little section of displaced hair...but its there if you know where to look (high shoulder).
