Thread: 2020 SHOT STAGS

Did get a metre kingfish stalking on my 50th birthday last Thursday, though. Sorry that's got nothing to do with the thread - I get confused now I’m officially old!

Cheers, I’ve got a 20 inch saum and using 59 grains 2213. Gets me 2750fps with 163 eld x. Accurate but wondered what rl26 could do. Thanks for that.

Here ya go boys (and girls)
This years been goin great so far

NOT BAD FOR A 9YEARS OLD.
It took us a while to get in close to him, Had to stalk through a paddock with sheep and then just getting up to where we wanted to be a hind barked at us. binos up and there he was 50m away and time my young fella lined him up he had gone around the ridge. A quick run around the face and he was back in view running. A quick roar and he stopped, boom miss, quick reload and second shot was a hit. Older animal and i recon going backwards. So a good one to shoot.
