First time to use one hunting ever was this Fall on a smallish Whitetail doe. Base of neck shot with 700 CDL, 80 grain TTSX.
That particular placement was chosen to ensure a DRT and to evaluate the damage it would cause.
Now I'd take any shot with it as with 7 Mag., 7-08, .308, 25-284, etc. and feel perfectly confident doing so.
Can't wait to try it out on some porkers this coming weekend.
