  Thanks guys. I enjoy hunting with the young man. 

  And I’m sure he loves hunting with you.  Well done...

  I’m having internet issues preventing me from seeing the pics right now, but I know his shot was true.  Fantastic milestone for the young man.  It’s incredible how a heart shot can actually rob you of a strong blood trail like that.

  Accuracy: because white space between bullet holes drives me insane.

  Put a brake on it and handload some A-Max/ELD-M bullets........deer will drop like flies with proper placement and little recoil. 

  Well- that idea went down in flames.  It seems we got him a new bike for Christmas, and he can keep using my guns to hunt with.

  He’ll out grow a bike. Not a rifle.
