The only one getting the snot knocked out of them, would be me.

I can't shoot heavy bullets anymore.

Shoot the smaller of the two I sent you with 90 grains of BH - I am thinking it will be just fine...

Will do. I have more than a month to get something worked out.

I'll be really surprised if I even see a bull on this hunt. This unit will be so crowded it's going to be a nightmare. I'm just looking to have a good time, and I can't do that if i'm worried about the bullet. I need to find some timber out of the way, and hope we don't get a blizzard.
