Thanks everyone. It was fun and that back-straps, hams, and loins were covered in fat. My wife cut up the meat last night and it looked beautiful.


@ Semisane: 250 grain / blue sabot. 100 grains of BH 209


@ gotbuck: Yes I did. One perch. My friend smoked me by catching a quarter bucket of crappie and perch. We joked last night that I just had to get the biggest fish, but mine was on land...lol

I think I will stick to muzzleloader hunting for deer. Got two deer with Muzzy with two shots. It would be hard to go back to a riffled slug out of a smooth bore again.

The advice I got here saved me a lot of aggravation, time and money. And gave me the confidence we can make long shots under the right circumstances.

Very nice, great shot as well.

Congrats on the big doe.

Very nice deer,congratulations.
What you are seeing with the XTP is the reason I went to bonded bullets.

Nice! That's a big doe you got there. Nice story- I'll have to remember the trick about bringing a propane heater in the blind. I was freezing my butt off on Saturday....

Great shot on a nice doe. Congrats.

congrats on the deer, great shot!
