Nice one coop.
seems quite windy (enough to move the large pine tree), did you allow much windage? and what range.
Nice shot what bullet head?

Hey up john, it was windy, i gave it about 3 to 4 inches of right hand side for wind,

i ranged him at 185 yards, i must add that i was shooting my 6x47 lapua with a 105gr bullet which is doing 3100fps ***wist*** , and shooting laid out with the rifle on a bipod.

My scope at the moment is not ideal for stalking, its overpowerd and a long range target scope 8.5x25x50 leupold vx111

Ideal for these shots but not much use in bad light or up-close stalking.

cheers. *Monkey Hanger*

Is that a "target head" coop because I must say it did the job very well.

Good shooting Coops, it just goes to show you don't need heavy rounds to withstand strong winds. The buck hardly flinched so the shot placement must have been spot-on.

*Monkey Hanger* cheers lads, thanks for the comments.

I think we all agree that when they drop on the spot you know the jobs done, thats what we all aim for.
