Ratman2 2 Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 I take it that it was dead pretty quickly I'm not so sure it is dead, just a little light headed Quote Link to post
Deker 3,478 Posted April 9, 2008 Report Share Posted April 9, 2008 Another one bites the dust or doesnt as it has no teeth!!!Still beats me why anyone would use a 243 at such close range!!! If you can call that close a 12G with No3 will work! Just as Mr L said..it's what we had, we were after Charlie and deer, the evening turned absolutely filthy with howling rain and wind and cold and we were all sheltering...Mr L spotted Charlie through the mire of the weather and got closer and closer, Charlie didn't move..he was sheltering too..job was done with what was to hand..thats the way it goes sometimes........most of the medium/large wildlife we take on this land is between 50-200 yards, centrefires are the tools of choice for this, not shotgun!

Mr_Logic 5 Posted April 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted April 15, 2008 It was a really horrid evening, absolutely foul, and the scope got really soggy too so very hard to see out. Quote Link to post
