Scored BIG last night

[stubert]

I asked the other day what alloy I should use for deer and decided on Lyman #2. Went out yesterday afternoon and in under an hour had an old 8 point walk up to me. I was using a Ruger 44 SRH . He walked towards me then turned around to go back but made the mistake of turning his head to look back in my direction. I took one shot and hit him in the neck/throat. He dropped on the spot. dressed him out and went over to the gun club to weigh him. 182 lbs. gutted. So far the biggest deer in the pool. I was using a Lyman 429421 sized to .430. seated to 1.7" 22 grains of 296.

Great Score, hope you win the pool

That is my favorite load of 296! Used with a Lyman 429421 HP boolit!

Definately the wrong forum for that discussion. [smilie=1:

Jealous. I haven't seen any deer yet this year, other than dead at the side of the road... :D
