The Aquila rounds are great. I have been using them for a while now and they can't be beat for quiet target fun. I know if I start shooting a lot of them, I am going to be looking to mexican match...

I decide at the time of the shot. Too many variables to decide early. I try not to wound game and dispatch it as quickly as possible. I have shot several deer in the head. It makes for no tracking...
You don't hear many stories like that. Thanks for sharing and thanks for your service as a LEO.

waksupi. I use that fact to my advantage. It is a known conundrum that deer appear more often when having to relieve yourself. Just keep your other weapon handy and fire away. clothes dry and even...
If it is on my hip, as it often is during hunting season, and the need arises, what else would you use it for? I hope not a hammer in camp.

We still talk about this one. Kinda graphic but real. We hunt over bait and at dark we shoot to drop them right there. I like behind the ear but this one was for the eye. It ended up in one eye and...

Sorry about the slow replies. I just figured out that I am not subscribed to threads just because I post them. That is a 44 mag Marlin 1894 20 inch. It's got an Ashley ghost ring and front post. It...
Sorry on the late reply. I did not realize until today that I was not subscribed to a thread automatically when I posted to it. Mine is hammerless. Sorry about the cut off photo.

This was my first and only, so far. I am the kinda guy that works to get firsts and then it is on to the next first. It is limiting sometimes but that is part of the fun for me. This deer was taken...

Nice shooting. I would say you are "good to go".

Outstanding. I am glad that trapper is spitting out those boolits with authority. Congrats!
Tough deal. hang in there. It happens to all of us sooner or later if we hunt hard enough. Especially those of us who take up the challenge of limiting our success by using handgun or bow.

I started hunting deer with the bow in 68. There were not many around but I did see some in the woods and even took a shot or two with no success. Went off to school and did not hunt much again till...

We got a lot on camera, but don't know if these were in the pics.
I have been fighting this unburned powder thing for a while now in my 44 Special loads. I am also seeing position sensitivity in my loadings and this just should not be. I really am going to just...
