    First blood and a proper trophy sized Billy

    Got invited on to a farm down south Mosgiel way to help cull some goats.
    So I prepped and got my 223 sorted with a new scope and some new ammo to try and it seemed to be a great match.
    Prepped ready to go.

    New scope

    Grouping with the new ammo Belmont 223, 50grain (muffed the 3rd shot my phone rang)
