Broke in my .204
« on: October 27, 2008, 04:23:39 PM »
Well I just painted my newest AR a couple weeks ago and had only shot about 14 rds thru it at paper so I decided to take her out this am and see just how far she would go on the "first date". :chuckle:

Well no disappointments. This guy came in at about the 8 min mark on a jackrabbit distress. Took the shot at 143 yds. Bang flop 32 grs at 4175 fps 2x lung shot. He was this years litter but that just makes em harder to hit.

I like to see those dogs in that condition.  Just means more fawns next year.  Good job and keep wacking and stacking.

well done.
Handle every stressful situation like a dog. If you can't eat it or destroy it, piss on it and walk away!
