    Well it exited. Not much of an exit hole. It was only starting out at 2816 fps so was going about 2000fps when it hit. But it did the job.

    Fantastic video Stug. Off side leg huh? You wouldn't be a horse rider would you?
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Ha ha ha ha a Clydie stallion in a canter would make the earth shake beneath its hooves.

    Nice shot, and great vid. Just curious, did you allow for the heat shimmer or is it not worth it? Just thinking back to target shooting days when you'd notice a shift up when the shimmer came in.

    I didn't notice the mirage on 16x you see it on the video because the camera was cranked up to 75x
