excellent eating and harvest. Did you get a complete pass through with that load? That sure is a nice looking rifle.

Thx, and yes it was complete pass-through. Shot her on right side about 4" back of leg. Thar be a hole slit on left leg juut up from the joint. It is the 1st deer i have taken with prb using the GreyHawk. I reckon they will do well out to 75 yds fer hitting power. Don't knowed what the accuracy would be at that distance.

My greyhawk just loves a prb 70 gr of 2f goex load, groups of less than 1 1/2 inch vary common at 50 yards with open sites. Have yet to shoot a deer with it though, maybe later this fall.

Isn't the Greyhawk the stainless version of the New Englander?

I believe Chasam60 is right I think the Greyhawk is the same as New Englander only stainless.
