You could tape off the antlers when you were done and spray the skull with a clear matt spray finish to maybe highlight the burn area. I think it would make more contrast. Just a thought and I could be completely wrong.
Face To Face
In early December Collin who is a good friend of mine and I went out west of Huson up in the mountains to try and call in a coyote or a wolf. Out of the two animals we both were hoping that we might be lucky and have one or more wolves respond as we both wanted to take one. I...
I've shot into water/milk jugs filled with water at 25 - 100 - 200 - 300 - 400 - & 500 yards. Line 7 up and and you should be good. It's good practice and nice to see how your bullets perform. Penetration, expansion, and weight retention.
Fire Away!!
Here's 90 gr. E-tips and 100 gr. Partitions out of a 6mm Remington at 3318 & 3170 fps shot into water jugs at 100 - 200 - 300 - & 400 yards. Sorry didn't shoot a Partition into jugs at 300 yards. Been really happy with how the E-tips have performed in the 6mm. Haven't shot them in anything...

Love my 30-06 using 165 gr. Partitions or Accubonds. That's all I ever load for it at 2940 fps out of my Ruger 1B. I want for nothing more, but like all of you folks I seem to be unable to own just one rifle.
That's sure sweet! You gotta love those Ruger #1's! I sure do. Both of mine shoot great also and with Partitions no less!
My Partitions agree with your Partitions! It's such an iconic combination you have there. Ruger single shot, 180 gr. Partition, and the 300 H&H, what more do you need!
