Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting My son's first deer

Best youth hunt story I have read. I used that same bullet many years ago on a control hunt near Mason, Tx. These deer needed to be removed due to sickness and overgrazing by the deer. My rifle was a 24 inch barreled 6MM remington. All my shots were under 125 yards and no deer weighed more than 100 pounds. I killed 86 deer with a few needed followups. Dramatic expansion and 40% exits. It killed with authority but if the deer had been bigger I don't think it would have worked out so well. Most of the does did not weigh more than 60 pounds. I would like to do that hunt again with my new favorite 6MM bullet the 85gr. Nosler partition.
