Got one with my new 45-70
« on: November 20, 2007, 11:06:04 PM »
Late yesterday evening I finally got a doe with my new 45-70 Handi-Rifle. The doe was about 40 yards and in the dark shadows of a laurel thicket. The Williams Twilight Aperture and the white blade front sight made it possible to put a 300 grain Winchester bullet right behind her left shoulder. The bullet broke the right shoulder and exited.

Congratulations and nice shooting. I guess the 45-70 is enough gun ;)
Great men have vision and resolve to make dreams come true.
