Hey Stug,
forgot to mention. The edge performed really well. Thanks once again to KG for building it for me.

The 12"Bull was 334yards away and quartering away from me. He ran about 10m. I found the 300g smk just under the skin on the other side.

The young bull was walking slowly along the ridge line 366yards away. I hit him about 4" further back than I had wanted to, I suspect because he was moving. He went about 50m - which added about half an hour to the recovery.

The Leica HD B's were awesome! I can now see why you guys rave about the difference between high end and average glass. The ballistic program was really helpful. Adjusting for the angle and air pressure straight away was really handy (not that any of my shots were overly long). At home the air pressure is usually 29-30, where as it was 24-25 on the trip.

Very nice, thanks for posting
