I killed a pig and a nice whitetail buck also. I used a CZ 550 American re-barreled to the wildcat .270 Ingwe with handloads using the 130 grain Nosler Ballistic Tip.

I'm sure glad I got to be there when Judy killed that buck!

She did a great job! I could tell she was excited afterwards! But a stone cold killer before the shot... Seasoned pro now, she is!

Did you back Judy up with the 460?
How do you like the 243 game changer?
What powder and velocity?
Barry is a nice guy.
Congrats to you both!

Congratulations!

good deal elks & bride

Looks and sounds like a lot of fun, congrats to you both.

Congratulations! My wife's first deer was also with a 243. A big Doe, processor said 300#'s live weight. A Northern Minnesota Whitetail. She did not have s good shot, behind a tree. She hit the Doe 6 times in the rear haunch.. Got the deer but the rear haunch was totaled. Heard her shoot, then after 4 shooting again. Ran right over there..

How do you like the 243 game changer? It broke the shoulder and exited,from how it was explained to me the deer was quartering towards her when she shot it. She likes the bullet.

What powder and velocity? RL-16 and 3102 fps average.
Barry is a nice guy. Yes,he is.
Congrats to you both! Thank you.

I heard one shot and as time went on I did not hear another,so I figured she made a good shot.

Good deal!

Congrats to Judy on both the turf and surf eats she got...👍🏻

Ken, you were totally unrecognizable with that little rifle. No rabbits were harmed on this trip, but a good buck nonetheless.

Nice job Barry, especially for showing Ken how to shoot a peashooter. 😬😎

Looks like fun all around !

Now if you use 460s and other such large calibers for Jack Rabbits and 270s for deer, does that mean you use 22 hornets for Moose?

Nice job Ken, you two have become killing machines !

Had the .460 in the hotel room if things went sour.
