Default My brothers PatchnBall deer hunt

My dad and I bought a bunch of stuff for my brother last Christmas and I basically built him a new CVA Hawken in .54cal so he could strictly hunt with patched round ball and not be under gunned.

He got his chance September 11th and that rifle just shot so sweetly that morning.

Just a couple teaser pics! Look REAL closely at the first pic and tell me if you see something.

I got the shot on video so it will be fun to put together and show everyone once its up and ready.

Is that the ball I see getting ready to enter right behind the left shoulder? Judging by the deer's reaction, it just might be!

Dish Satellite is the same way Jon. After 2:00am I can watch all these videos people post. If you do it during the day you reach your FAP way too fast.

I thought in the still picture that was the ball. Pretty cool picture.
