What an great tale! Thanks for entertaining us with the sordid details. And certainly, congratulations are in order on your goat.
There's 2 dates they carve on your tombstone. Everyone knows what they mean. What's more important is time that is known as the little dash inbetween.

180 gr in '06 fixes most anything IMO. Whatever you were using, well done. Nice photos and writeup.
If you ain't hurting, you ain't hunting- at least at our ages.
