Just got back from deer hunting (warning - dead deer pics)
Just got back from a deer hunt in New Brunswick, managed to bag a nice 8 point whitetail. Shot him at 9:05am, Saturday November 7th with snow on the ground, he came in at 210lbs dressed.
Shot went through the front right shoulder ball joint, completely shattering it, and then on through the lungs. Deer ran maybe 30 yards and died.
I only brought two rifles, one was a 1913 production Ross M10 in .280 Ross and the other was a 1940's era Husqvarna Mauser 98 that originally came to me in 8x57, but I had it re-chambered to 8x63 Swedish pushing a 200gr pill at 3000fps. This brute came along on the day I was carrying the Mauser, thought to be honest, I would have preferred to shoot him with the Ross - oh well, maybe next year.
