    I always found 139/140 gr bullets to be best overall in the 7mm/08 and I used one for nearly years on all sized deer and never lost an animal.

    Reducing powder charge will naturally reduce velocity I sometimes make mouse fart loads ( 12gr 700x and 1 oz shot)for kids to use. They require some fiddling as the powder column is shorter and...

    Moa Hunter liked post by 10-Ring On thread : daytime thermals
    They're great to use on an overcast or very cold day in the bush. The trouble is trying to find the deer in the scope once you see a small part of it with the thermal. That takes some practise....

    I don’t know about thermals but once I got pointer dog it was amazing how many animals I’d walk past. Best day on opossums is about 60 and near two dozen deer.
