You need to be careful about what you ask for.

This buck died from a 6.5.

Don't worry, it's not a Creedmoor. Your safe.

It's absolutely true. I loaded the bullet. 143 gr. Eldx over 6.5 staball.

The antlers suggest it was shot in Greenland.

Sorry for the lousy photo. I wasn’t very refined 45 years ago.

First? So how many do you have over 30?

I’d assume hunting is like dating your not supposed to ask for a body count

My body count is zero and I have spent considerable time and effort. I guess I’m the 40 year old virgin.

psinclair made a lot of hay back in the glory days (aka pre-internet and pre-draw). Look at that cotton hoodie! Probably wore blue jeans half the time too. Youngsters these days will never know how good it was back then. Doubt we'll ever see times like that again. But at least we have our high tech synthetics to wear these days while we search for dinks in mountains full of tactical operators.
