    Lucky Times....for some of us

    I had another good weekend in the bush seeing plenty of fallow does and a few red hinds but didnt get any love like HartHunter. Congrats to my little shitbag brother who shot this heavy bloke Friday arvo and took off for a wedding saturday morning leaving me to boil the head, strip the velvet and all that jazz.

    Something I was impressed with though was that we recovered a projectile. Using my 300 win mag (which I never got to drop the first deer with! ha) and the 180 gn barnes ttsx I weighed it once recovered and found out it lost this much weight! guessing thats just the weight of the polymer tip? Also loved the perfect 4 cutting petals that peeled back just like they should. I guess its true what they say once you go barnes you never go back
