Short enough... laugh

If I were to put a number on it, I'd say 5' on a good day. She'd have to step on a curb, to kick a duck in the ass.

Yes it does! That one was shot from a treestand at a steep angle. You can see the entrance, it looks like a high lung shot, but it was actually a top to bottom shot.

The .45-70 seems to do less meat damage than my .30-30.

Browning A-Bolt .243 WSSM, Burris FFII 3-9x40 Ballistiplex, 85 TSX and I4350.

Gun hasn't changed in 8 years, not even adjusting the scope between factory Powerpoints, factory Ballistic Silvertips, the Barnes TSX or 90 NBT. All have shot to nearly the same POI. Has quickly become my go to for all that I hunt.
