I have filled my two buck limit for 2020 with my "shiny" Ruger. I don't think I've ever filled both with an iron sighted revolver before.  A 7 point at 50 yards   and this wide 8 point at 40ish yards. Both fell to a single well placed 240 grain Federal Fusion.

Two nice bucks down.....what's next?  Nilgai? Aoudad? Schimitar? Gotta find something to give those Fusions a test.

The shiny ruger is searving you well!
It takes 43 muscles to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger squeeze.

Fantastic job! It's challenging enough trying to get just one with an open sight pistol.

Great work with that six-shooter! Using an iron sighted revolver to take a deer is something I still haven't accomplished. My hats off to you!
