My oldest Jacob is at it again. So far this year he has taken two pronghorn does, a whitetail doe and just tonight a 4-point spike whitetail buck. All were taken with a single shot at 275 yards, 200 yards, 100 yards, and 45 yards. He used a 700 in vanilla .223 loaded with 63gr Sierras. Three bullets exited and we recovered the one from the pronghorn he shot at 275 yards. I will post a pic of the whitetail buck when I get them uploaded, but for now.

Something like that... wink Hey we do still have a big bore around here somewhere but only use it on big stuff, a 243 is too brutal for everyday use... grin

Excellent!

Great shooting from your son. It also proves how totally worthless a .223 is on deer sized game.... Oh wait... laugh

Congrats to Jacob! (...and dad!)

Threads like this are the very best part of the 'fire! LBP, I can only imagine how proud you must feel--not just 'cuz the boy bonked a couple critters, but because of the work and preparation that went into it. Also, the character your boy exhibits in order to safely handle/shoot guns while respecting the game he hunts. Yup, kids' Hero Shots are great, but mostly for all the behind-the-scenes lifestyle choices that they represent.

You've got that boy on the right path, and I congratulate you! If you and Jacob ever find yourselves here in western Washington, please make contact--I'd be happy to buy you lunch and get to know you personally.

honest, I read it on the internet

The leopard/.38 event has been alluded to many times here, but I've never read an account of the adventure. I get the basi gist of what happened, but is there a thread here giving the full story?

Here's a poor pic of the 4-point spike. He was a large 3 point on one antler and a weird ball like knob on the other side.

That is some good shooting. Congrats to the hong man.
