Default Back from hunting shot my elk.

Well it took me three days but I finally found a raghorn 5x5 that stood still just a little too long. I shot him with my 300-win mag just behind the front shoulder. I used the new Nosler Accubond 200-grain bullet. One shot at about 70-yards was all it took. He ran about 50-yards down hill before he took a noise dive. After the fun was over the work of packing him out began. It took me almost a full day of packing but he is hanging in the barn.

Score, Good Job, Nothing wrong with 5x5' s!
I wondered where you had went, figured it might by hunting -- it' s that time of year.
