Mick from memory it was a Charles Lancaster. Lovely old hammer gun with some nice engraving. John the first shot was a decent shoulder shot which visably caused the bull some issues. The second was on the run as it headed towards the river. It pulled up and was shot again in the chest and another as it ran again. It pulled up again quite sick and was put down with another. I don’t think the running shots were good hits. In the photo you can see a hole through its left ear. It was a nice bull with very long thin points. 97 I think. We tried to find the projectiles but had quite some trouble. We did carry a piece of threaded rod with which we traced the main bullet paths and penetration was quite good but I don’t recall exactly how deep they went.
