going to bump this thread, as its got sum good info for the little 6x45, sure like my little cooper.
Shot a couple fallow in back country Taranaki, when home in May, very steep, and thick, bumped a few game in the bush, on a small slip I seen the hind, 100m off hand shot, steep down, the little buck was behind her, and run across and down, during my decent to the doe, he popped up below me, as he stepped down into a hollow I took an unusual shot, down threw the top of the shoulders, bullet was under the skin, of the front chest. very impressed.
Was a real mission to get meat out, as it was one of those, I will just go for an explore hunts, and i only had a knife, was a very tough grind out, with 4 quarters, back steaks and sum shoulder meat,
I not going for an explore with out, at least a sugar sack, rope, or day pack again.
85gr Serria, at 2850, or perhaps a 85gr partion, they shoot the same in my rifle, and are difficult to tell apart when loaded,
