Again the 45-70 did its job.
Then things got interesting...
Brimming with (over) confidence, and armed with my puma 357 lever gun, I went up with the family on a inland deer hunt.

The first drive, on the first morning, my brother in law jumped this bruiser.

He came charging down the hill to my left. At the first shot he did a forward roll, and came up running. So I laid into him!. The forth shot broke him down enough so I could put a fifth into his neck, and kill him. The first shot was about 60 yards, the last at about 20.
We recovered two of the 140 gr Win silver tips.

All were good hits, just could have been bigger I guess.
Heading back to the coast in November for turkey and pigs again!
Happy shooting to ya,
