I put the bow down and went out with a pistol. 8 point

Helluva deer, and helluva shot with a handgun.

Wow.

Nice buck I'm headed out in the morning with my 357. Shot my buck with a bow last week.

You done good!!!!

That looks like my 50th Anniversary model...Doe she have a 6 1/2 inch barrel???

What ammo did you use??

Yup. Its the 50th Flat top with the 6.5". I shot him with one of my loads. 240 grain soft point.



Thanks all.

That is a beautiful cape.

I have a couple of 44 mag rifles and th get the job done out to about 100 yards. Great kids rifle.

Umm... Just curious, did you read the thread? That weren't no rifle...

Love those single action Ruger 44s.

I've killed a few deer and a bunch of hogs with mine but never a nice buck like that.
Well...... theres still time.

Me too. Keep on hunting, you will come across a nice buck. I have not hunted with a gun in years. I normally hunt with a longbow. I went to my cabin, from Lubbock and waited for a buddy to come down. He was going to run by my house and pick up my bows. He had troubles and could not make it. I wanted to hunt and all I had at the cabin was the 44 mag so I took it out. I have to admit, it was fun to go out with guns again. I have some 45 colts, and 357s that I have not hunted with in years, I might pull them out and finish off my doe tags and pop some hogs with them.
