Tell us more about the hunt and the rifle set-up with load data. He used factory Barnes 55 gr. TSX. He's a lucky boy, his dad takes him hunting and fishing every time he goes. I can't wait to take them down south in about a month. They were hunting a friend of his fathers Ranch. This was his first rifle killed Buck. He has actually taken 2 others with crossbow, one last year and one this year.
