I'm slowing down on my whitetail hunting; prefer seeing kids having the opportunity to hunt. This young fellow killed his first spike buck, but what a spike. Shooting a Savage bolt gun chambered in 7-08.
As far as my hunting this year, I held close to my SMLE Scout. Love this rifle. On March 21st, I loaded 50 rounds with the PPU 180-grain SPBT and 45 grains of Hybrid 100V. I have two remaining. A total of thirteen rounds were shot over the months at my range as I headed back to kill hogs, just something I do regularly. 37 hogs fell to those rounds. Yeah, the math doesn't work out right as I had two shoot throughs killing two hogs each time. Eight hogs dropped this past week.
