Re: Heym,Krieghoff,Merkel or the Searcy ??

Thanks Chris!

It was ranged right at 99yds across a steep canyon and quartering slightly toward - it turned out more so than I thought.

The shot entered right about the left 5th rib and angled backwards, through both lungs, through the top of the rumen, and exited mid abdominal wall. Call it roughly 36" of travel.

The moose swapped ends, ran about 30yds, and fell over.

This is the third moose I've shot and the easiest one yet. On the way over to it I discovered there was a two-track in the bottom of the canyon. Post-gutting three good shoves landed it on the road.




This is the kind of stuff we were hunting:










btw, the landowner who's property I was on pretty much thought I was on crack
He takes one look and bellows out: "What the Hell is that !?"
