Default BP Doe
Managed to get this gal last Thursday, which was the last week of the regular deer season here in VA. First one with my new TC. I was shooting 2 Triple 7 pellets behind a 250gr Shock Wave Superglide and using the TC 209 primers. This load shoots great but as many of you have mentioned, impossible to reload after a shot without swabbing. Gonna start working up a new load soon.

Looks like a nice autumn day for January! You broke the new gun curse w/ a fine looking animal; what was the shot like-yardage,etc?

Good job. Congrats. Well looks like you really don't have to worry about a second shot anyway.

60 yard shot and the deer was quartering towards me. Hit her a little more forward than I wanted but she only ran about 75 yds and was done.
