Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles A Girl, An Elk, A 243 Win/105VLD and 688yds makes elk steaks

My 13yr old shot his first buck DRT this year at 225yds with his 243 with 100gr Hornady handloads. No it's not 688yds, but he is only 13 and weighs 80 lbs soaking wet with his football pads on. The rifle is just a factory SPS with a trigger job and bedding, but it shoots very good.

I say congrats to the young lady for her first elk and damn fine shooting!
