    well,cant REALLY like that,but it surely was effective AND they were making sure of clean kill at times so guess they confident of the others....GREAT to see some of them coming out on hook,hopefully going into good useage somewhere...

    Shooting a moving target from a helicopter like that looks like it takes a lot of skill.

    Yes some nice bucks in the fix, I agree at least some meat was recovered and wounded animals were finished off. It's just a sign of the times, to many deer about so they need to be culled.

    It looks further then it is, 20-30m is about the norm depending on a few things. Think it’s a aim point he is using from memory.

    Haha yea back to the motherland following the money trail....I’m still looking for it though

    says 300 blk......but if range is 20-30 yards,shotgun with the smaller #7 buckshot would be devastating...32ish balls at bit over 22 calibre at that range would be spread no more than ...1" per yard= 20-30inch pattern so just about pepper entire deer from one end to other...20 yards be entire front end.
