    i got a 2nd doe thursday at 4:45pm with my Husqvarna m46 in 9.3x57. it was a whopping 15ish yards when the 275gr WFN GC and IMR4895 flattened her. i still have to chronograph the 9.3, but i think it should be 1800-1900fps. anway, she was shot behind the shoulder and it went out 2 ribs behind the other shoulder. the lungs were trashed and the boolit came out about 1 1/4" hole.

    i didn't take a picture because it was dark when my son field dressed it. i figure she weighed about 190 - 200 lbs. she was big, old, dry doe that i seen in my backyard at nite. my son pulled fat off her in a 5 gallon bucket. other than the backstraps, she be made in straight deerburger, no pork or hamburger.

    Congrats! You'll definitely be eating well this winter.

    I'm curious about your velocity, too -- not that a few FPS either way matter, though, because it's obvious your load is very effective! Congrats again...

    Congrats! That fills a freezer up quickly.
    It's better to shoot for the moon and hit the fencepost than to shoot for the fencepost and hit the ground!
