Cat and Mouse game through some real thick stuff but she is down. i cant begin to tell you how valuable a good hunting dog is... probably wouldnt have recovered this deer without her. Shot was perfect, a double lung presented and was nailed with complete pass through. heart and liver still useable, deer went around 100 yards through the tangled mess, with the usual 0 blood trail that I could follow, but My missy dog found her. the gun was my 1949 Marlin 336 32 win special shooting 165g cast over case full of homegrown BP... this combo has taken bears and my deer this season. i really like the original Post redicle scope in the dark forest, and the gun just loves that load combo. it is also very handy that the gun is short.. it carrys very well in the thickness of our rain forest.
been truely blessed this season with full freezers.. thanks to the father.
