Was fortunate enough to take this bull on Friday. ![[Linked Image]](http://i1272.photobucket.com/albums/y384/USMC2602/IMG_1961_zps2c39e58a.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://i1272.photobucket.com/albums/y384/USMC2602/photo_zps8908ad7c.jpg) A great day for me. My first Utah bull, and by far my biggest bull (he's only my second). First animal taken using my own handloads. Lasered at 416 yards, and it was the only shot I was going to get. Caught the back of both lungs and stopped inside the hide on the far shoulder.

Damn nice bull! Congratulations! Really feels good to collect one with your own home-rolled ammo...

No doubt! Of course you don't have to say a thing. The GRIN says it all.
CONGRATS.

Awesome bull! Congratulations! Are you calling it 7x7 or 8x7.
