Thanks Mbogo for the info! When I watch hunting shows on tv, I never understand why the hunters don’t talk more about the cartridge/caliber etc. Alan

Congratulations to the young lady.
And now, with a heavy dose of dripping sarcasm:

Well done to both of you! And an excellent choice in cartridges, the classic all round "Western" hunting round.

Nice! Reminds me of my days with my kid. No fancy camo either I love it!
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

Awesome job to her and to you! Keeping the tradition alive is what its all about. Great story too!

So a little follow up: Necropsy showed she hit him right where she was supposed to. He was downhill, quartering to us when she shot him. While we were sitting there I gave her a little anatomy lesson and shot placement depending how the critter presents itself. The bullet hit right between the left shoulder and the brisket. When we dressed him, the lungs were jelly. I was surprised that with no major bones broken he had dropped like he did, right in his tracks. And even though it wasn’t a real far shot (just under 200 yds) that ELDM is a killer. Back at the truck.
