Thread: Boy's First carry.

This is not much of a story as I have to shoot off to work soon. But I thought I would just put a couple of pictures up as I took my middle son for a hunt in the weekend. A) because I needed some venison. B) because i had a new rifle that I wanted to blood.. Its a Brno Fox in .222 in mint condition. and C) just because.

I don't know what ammo I'm shooting as I was just given heaps of random handloads and factory ammo from a mate that used to have a .222. They seem to do the job well though. After a quick sight in with a group of the same looking stuff I was getting under an inch at 100 yards, so I thought "That will do me".

Anyway on the first evening of the hunt we came across a group of yearling hinds and soon enough the Fox had its first victim. I was a rapt dad when Connor asked if he could carry it back! I was pretty surprised as he is only 8! So I said go for it and he did just that. There were a few slips and trips on the way but he got there.



The other photos are of the Fox's 2nd and 3rd victims.
