    @Max Headroom I guess that is one benefit arising from me having been a teenage bride (with a shot gun at my head ).

    James has reliably informed me that the first pic in the story is him with the deer I shot, not with the 2nd deer he shot.
    So to put the record straight, here is the 2nd deer that James shot with the 7-08 at approx 250 yards:

    Fantastic read.

    Nothing beats sharing hunting with younger people. Ild imagine even more so with your own children / grandchildren

    Well done grandad, I hope the lad isnt the last generation of hunters and he will be able to take his kids and grandkids out and do the same one day.
