Scotty it was about 150-175 yards. He was feeding on a narrow beach and I had come in off a slimy rock pile. I waited until he was broadside.
There was a lot of damage,and substantial exits. I aimed to break bones first shot and guess I did. He spun and I aimed the second same place,opposite side. It looked like he wanted to go but seemed anchored...he started roaring.
3rd through lungs and that exited with a lot of blood thrown on the beach.
He collapsed in the front end and pushed with hind legs but could not go anywhere and died. He was busted up pretty good. They are tough animals and don't give up easy.
2 of 3 shots exited. I recovered what I think was the first bullet.
