Finally scored with my omega

[rml127]

After several confrontations with small doe and little bucks I was finally able to score Sunday morning. I shot a big fat doe at 90 yards. I was using a 250 shockwave and 100 grains of triple 7 pellets. The shockwave went completely thru the deer and destroyed both lungs. The deer only went 60 yards and dropped like a brick. There was a wicked blood trail. I couldn't be happier with the performance of the gun and load. My uncle wants a muzzleloader with a scope now for next year. I still have 2 weeks to find a buck I can get a shot at. I don't plan on using a shotgun during the regular season ever again, blackpowder is way too much fun.

congratulations on an excellent rifle, load and for taking what sounds like a nice doe... It is a good feeling when everything you have practiced on the range all comes together and it works to make the hunt memorable. I am sure you Uncle will be able to find a good rifle as well. Now good luck hunting that buck... you got no excuses now..

Nice going Robert! The dust thickens on my rifled barrel shotgun also.

Congrats!!!! but now you are really hooked - it has happened to a lot of us. You say your shotgun will now get a rest - same for my centerfires, as T7 said collecting dust...
