Killed an old speed goat doe this morning with my 1930 vintage 99E 250-3000 with Redfield TV screen 3 X 9 scope, Lightfoot mount, using Nosler 85 gr. ballistic tip bullets with 34 gr. RL19 and WLR primer at 197 yds... William Faulker would be proud of that run-on sentence.
Critter and rifle that did the dirty deed. I aimed behind the shoulder but hit the shoulder and severed the aorta and esophagus.
I'll have to post pics tomorrow. Photobucket has been uncooperative for the last hour or two.
