    yes the 55grn heading dog is superb at the task....a 125grn ballistic tip just behind the ear hole on out stretched neck on the old bitch who used to lead them was very satisfying too...but the mongrel bastard who jumped out on to road,then led me on merry chase till we both were absolutely stuffed copped a 50grn vmax between the soon to be bulging eyeballs was by far the most satisfying shot I've ever made ...I would chase him in wagon,get out to catch him and he kept beating me by mere inches...I cracked rib landing on rock in long grass,he was headed for main road at rangitata when finally gave up and shot the hua..my mate said mutton was tenderest he has ever had..figure that one out LOL.
