Was a bit atypical. Nontheless about a 25 yd shot. Bull was believed to be less than healthy. (Tick fever?? Dunno).

I know of one other very healthy bull succumbing to a single round of .303 Brit on this same ranch. About a 75 yd. shot.

Being native burghers of this desert city,
Should in their own confines with forked heads
Have their round haunches gored."
