Title: Blacktail vs 168 grain berger
Post by: Crunchy on October 23, 2020, 03:19:23 PM: Well sad to report I notched my tag. Little forkie needed a new home. 426 yard shot out of the 7 Rem mag and a 168 berger put him down instantly. Time to scout a little for late muzzy elk.

Deer wouldn't stay still but I had time to get prone, and get in the zone. Was hunting a new area, so it was nice to get one on the ground. Swore I was going to hold out for a solid 3 or better, but you know how that goes.
