I shot this guy last Saturday using my 20 gauge Encore with Federal Premium Barne's Expanders. He went about 15 yards and collapsed. His heart was mush.
I planned to use a handgun, but due to circumstances, some my fault some not, I didn't get much time to hunt. Figures, it was a 45 yard broadside shot. He came from the timber to the beanfield chasing a Doe. Another Doe and a yearling kind of spooked him. So from the time I saw him until I pulled the trigger maybe 5 seconds elapsed.
