Went out to Actually try abit of Yote Hunting today....ended up with my 1st Whitetail Buck, I'm pretty Happy about it, these Fellas are few and far between around here !
Not much to tell other then I went for a Hike in a good local area I frequent.
Didn't get 15 Minutes into my walk & Spotted this Fella about 200 meters away.....looked like he just stood up out of a bed. Dropped down to my knee, unshouldered my 260 & took aim. I actually didn't like the shot as he was slightly quartering towards me...I waited for a moment hoping for a broadside lungshot but he was definately gonna bolt so I took the shot I had and sent a 125 Nosler Partition into his left shoulder...He jumped staright up and went down hard and never got up.
The Bullet actually broke the near shoulder, removed the lungs and heart, then exited the far ribcage leaving an exit wound about an inch and a half around. Excellent performance from a Lil 6.5mm 125 grain bullet
Now with a Meat Buck in the Freezer I can hold Out for that BIG Muley !
