my first pistol killed buck!
« on: November 17, 2010, 12:03:58 PM »
well today was the day to notch the tag for me. I made it to a piece of timber co ground at first light and this dude posed for me. it was kinda lame really as I was only there for 2 minutes, but thems the breaks! I made a 80yd poke with my 329 pd and jelloed the lungs. a complete pass through with a 240 gr winchester white box jsp.  lemme say that I will be pistol hunting a lot more now!
sorry for the crappy cell phone pics, but it is what I had.

Uh oh! here we go. Is that barrel 4 inches?

That is cool. Does that thing kick pretty bad? its the scandium right. I like the feel of them.
Good job.

329pd.....4" perfectly legal. it does bark pretty good, but I leave all my other 44's at home since this one came along.

Great job!

I'm trying to think of some other questions that could make an otherwise exciting time and something to be proud of a total bummer.  (Obviously (I hope) kidding).  

GREAT shooting with a pistol! Congratulations - that is a pretty cool accomplishment.

the gun looks short due to the added 500 s&w grips. I practice regularly at some pretty long ranges. 80yds slightly quartering away was still a pass through. I bet my 300gr beartooths would pass through at twice the distance.

nice buck.  Don't hit e'm any where but the vitals.  There won't be much left.  My buddy killed on with his 44 mag a couple of years ago.  Hit it right in the front shoulder and ruined both front quarters

there is less bloodshot meat on this buck then ones I have killed with fast rifles for sure.

80 yards with open sites, I'm impressed.  Nice shooting and a good buck to go with it.
