New CVA Accura & First ML Buck Kill
 

I just had time to site in my Accura. (Around 7 Shots) Finally seen a small 6 pt buck. It was about a 160 yd shot (distance had been ranged before) and I hit him right where I was aiming.(Vari X1 3-9x40 Scope) It was a double lung shot. I placed the x right on my aiming point. No bullet drop. Shot off the top of a log. Very solid rest. I was using Barnes Spitfire T EZ 290 grain bullet with BH209 120 grain powder. I changed to the Federal 209A primers. It was the first deer I seen and shot at all hunting season.

This is my first deer in over 15 years. I had given up hunting to coach. Sure feels good to be back out with nature.

Thanks for all the great post. I would have never made this shot with this gun & setup without this site.

THANKS AGAIN!

awesome shot! It just seems like last week you got the rifle LOL. Feels good dont it?

Congrats! Hope I have the same luck this next week.

Awesome job! Congrats! That's a very stout load too. The very same load I use except I shoot the 250g T-EZ. You can knock over anything with that load.

Congratulations on the buck. Nice shooting there.

Congrat's on your Hunt with your new ACCURA, that was a long poke! Feels good to be back after all them years dont it!

sounds like your back.
congrats on the Gun and the Buck.

Congrats!!

Sounds like another finicky Accura. ;) Great choice of rifle, IMHO.

Congrats on your buck. 160 yards is a pretty good poke, well done.

Gratz to you. :party0005:

congrats good shooting

Congrats on a nice deer and shot!

Congratulations on your fine trophy, after a 10 year absence what a way to come back.:barmy:

THANKS!

It feels great to be hunting again and of course getting a Buck makes even better.

Now I need to sure up some hunting land for next year and start to research food plots. I still have a lot to learn.

Way to go congratulations

Way to go RapidRiot. 160 yards is pretty far out there. I've never shot one that far with a muzzle loader.
