To put it into perspective, this is what you killed a deer with. Damn! Everything I read says my 25-20 is not a hunting cartridge, but is shoots a 75 gr bullet at a little over 2000 fps. It puts quarter size holes in coyotes @ 100 yds. I may have to get it out. I say good job. Shot placement would have to be critical and you must have that down.
