Our farm is over-populated with does and a few need to be removed. This doe was taken from 125 yards with a FA Model 83 in .41 Mag. using Dick's 210 gr. powder coated HP bullet. These bullets shoot extremely well and work great on game. Fortunately, we have an Alternative Method Season in late Dec. with a few more does on the menu. Dick's bullets and the FA will be back in action.

Well done, Mark! Great looking FA. I?ve been using Dick?s 230 gr Keith 41 bullets in my custom Blackhawk - I may have to give them hollow points a try. We?re you able to retrieve the bullet at that range? I?ve yet to retrieve a 230 grainer.

MARK, WTG, AND VERY GOOD SHOOTING

Kral - no bullet recovery. Actually a couple of does were taken with this combination and both were pass-throughs.

Thanks for the kind remarks everyone -- May all of you enjoy a Happy Thanksgiving!

Mark is always quite humble with his replies but I've seen some of his targets at distance plus other animals he's taken & his shooting ability is far beyond good.
