Puyallup for late muzzy?
« on: December 01, 2012, 10:04:44 PM »
Anyone else been out chasin elk? My partner shot a nice cow the day before thanksgiving , but I've been holding out for the monster bull I had been watching right up until the opener. Seen him from the tail end of modern rifle right up until three days before late season opened. He is a beautiful 7x8 and I will keep trying until it's over. He has been on private property all along and no one else is hunting it to my or the owners knowledge- just can't find him anywhere in there. Anyway , the cow my partner shot was 185 yards broadside right through the heart. He was shooting a 300 grain Hornady SST and it performed awesome. 100 grains of Pyrodex pellets held right at the top of the back and dead elk. The bullet was weighed at home and only lost 7 grains - nothing more than the polymer tip. 373 lbs. hanging in skinned quarters at the butcher. Good luck to everyone out there.
