A gun in the hand is worth more than the entire police force on the phone.

Nice bull. You got some Dexter blood splatter going on. Based on the entrance, I think I clipped the carotid or jugular....but I'm not a medical examiner. Seen it happen on a whitetail a few times and stuff like this happens.
You only live once, but...if you do it right, once is enough.

Most excellent elk AND cartridge/bullet selection, sir!

Did you mention what unit?
My g8-g8 uncle was Barney Riggs. Google and read about him. He roamed around the southwest, mainly west Tx and Az and NM territory. History credits him with from 9 - 12 men he killed, not counting Mexicans and Indians. Family lore has it at 18.
