[QUOTE="ButtersDad, post: 2041673, member: 106362"] So I took the new rifle whitetail hunting but of course the blind I was in the deer completely avoided. About 30 hogs came in and I was able to get some target practice and little bit of fresh wild pork. Who would have thought that a 30cal 178gr eldm going almost 2800fps would be so devastating 😉. Had a 135yd shot, and a 20yd shot, both bullets went in right behind the ear and the entrance hole was no bigger than the tip of my pinky, but the exit was something nasty. One hog was 70lbs, the other about 50lbs. I’ll have to wait till next weekend to try and bag a good deer. Will definitely post more pics if I do.
