trphyhntr Report post Posted October 28, 2015 wasnt the easiest hunt for me, we had to work pretty hard i thought. got back a few ridges deep, I glassed him up in some thick stuff and one second you would see him the next he was gone. i threw down mine and my hunting buddies packs and made a rest, ranged the tree nearest where id last seen him, 522 yards. turret to 5 moa, then tried to find him in the scope - couldnt. stand up look in the binos and try to find him again. did that about 3 times. i finally zoom way out and his head pops up. i put the cross hair where his chest should be and let it rip and he jumps and then flops twice. once i got over there i wasnt sure if id find him because it was incredibly thick and dense cover but after a couple minutes there he was. after the shot i realized i had the scope on 9 power lol. equipment: swarovski slc 15x56 binos weatherby 257 Mark V vortex 6-24 pst Nosler Trophy Grade 110 gr Accubond Ammunition swarovski range finder 16 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
