Circa 1891 GH 12 gauge with Lyman pellet slug
 

Hunted with some friends in the adjacent county today .

Today and yesterday we did man drives pretty much the entire day !

On the second or third drive today I had an unfortunate fellow tip toe in my direction !

And I gave him the what for at 25-28 yards . At the boom of the gun he was DRT !

Used a Lyman home cast slug in a Claybuster AA12 wad .

The slug !

The deer is the white spot in front of me , I am sitting on the same log taking the pic that I was sitting when I fired at the deer .

He'll eat good...

Pretty thick cover,

Where were you aiming?

Did the gun come your way with the selous repair.

nice going...how far can you shoot those slugs with accuracy..maybe by next year i can have me some 10 and 12 ga loads loaded up to hunt with that is some round ball loads...charlie

Yes , I think it was done about forty or so years ago .

To be totally honest the slug hit about four inches right of where I aimed .

The right barrel groups fairly well out to fifty yards , the left barrel not as much so .

That's my first with a slug in a smooth bore . Granted I've knocked off a few with rifled slug guns .

Nice kill, it is always cool to see people who take deer with an old SxS.

I have not gotten up the courage to take one out deer hunting as I don't like taking the chance with as few of times I get to go out hunting a season.

That is a shotgun!
