[SakoSteve270wsm]

Got back from Wyoming sunday.Filled our tags and had some time to predator call and shoot some P-dogs!Had a blast!


Shot my buck at 137 yards.The BT entered the chest and destroyed the heart,then exited.He dropped in his tracks.

I also shot 2 does,one I didn't laser was around 70-80 yards.The BT entered the left side at the back of the rib cage and travelled through the chest cavity and exited the right shoulder.She ran about 25 yards then piled up.
The second doe lasered 237 yards the last time I ranged her.She was feeding away from me and moved about 5-10 yards before turning enough to give me a quartering away shot.The BT entered just behind the right shoulder and exited through the left shoulder.She took about 3 steps and dropped.I didn't get any pictures of my does (long story)

JD,

My brother had his house broken into and his rifle stolen,so he had to borrow his sons 243.He was shooting factory fed. 95gr fusion ammo.

Friend Mike was shooting 120gr BT's from a 6.5 swedish,he told me the powder he loaded but can't remember off hand.

I was shooting a 25-06.Rem brass 100gr BT's 51gr IMR-4350 and CCI-BR2 primers.

Outstanding hunt and pictures and shots of your game, gear and of Wyoming. I do hope to be there next year in Western Wyoming around Buffalo Wyoming and hunt antelope.
