Lots of packing yes and I needed a couple days for recovery.

Owen shot a Tikka 7mag with 150 grain TTSX , I used a Tikka 30-06 with 168 TTSX distances were 420 for the bull, 300 for the cow. I prefer closer shots, but the area mostly runs long, and all my closer attempts fell through for one reason or another.
