Yes I have.. A bit more rickety and a whole lot grayer and the jury is still out on the wiser part....

Russ, I continued to hunt for a few more years but I found myself drawn more and more to the upland life.Here in CT you can just about walk out your door and arrow a deer.Larry works pretty hard at it and has great success.

OK now fess up what make of vehicle did you use to run him over with
I haven't killed a buck with a front stuffer...yet. They can be dead on their feet and go amazing distances. I like to shoot them right on the point of the shoulder, you lose some burger but don't have to chase them. |

I've never had to take more than one shot to kill a buck and never had a deer go more than 50 yards. The first five were with my Model 94 .30 -.30 and the others were with my Ruger .270 but then, I've never taken a shot at a running deer.

Calvin, It was 100 grains of Pyrodex and a patched round ball. That was the load that particular gun shot the most consistantly.
