The Rooster Strikes
« on: December 26, 2011, 04:43:03 PM »
Today my Grandson Rooster (aka Sebastian) used his 357  Handi to finish a busy week of hunting. December 21st he shot a Mule deer doe(50 yards) in New Mexico. Took a ski trip to Ruidosa New Mexico,then came to see us . After a WONDERFUL Family Christmas we went hunting today. He nailed an Armadillo (25 yards )with a nicely placed shot,Then we moved to a different spot where he took a very nice heavy bodied White Tail Buck (35 yards). Three well placed 158 gr Federal soft point factory loads were used to take three animals.
Needless to say Me and His Dad are really proud of him!

You sure "Roosters" real name isn't Davy as in Davy Crockett?  Tell him Congrats, both of you deserve to be real proud.

My quandary, I personally, don't think I have enough Handi's but, I know I have more Handi's than I really need or should have.
