    Thanks

    What I didn't share was I found him within 200 yards of where I had been seeing a couple does all year and over the years I had seen more does with spikes up this one draw than all other of my areas combined.

    First time I had seen a mature buck though but I haven't hunted it that hard that is changing now.

    I have not noticed significant runout, mind you,after a few brews I lose interest in measuring...

    I do over 90% of my hunting with these little T/C Contender carbines.

    This is last years buck little 3 point he was actually a lot smaller bodied than the buck that I let walk yesterday first time I've had ground shrinkage on a deer.

    The Contender is a 14" barrel chambered in 338JDJ #2 OAL is 28" this short light fast combo loaded with 180gr Accubonds @ 2500fps is 320 yard moose capable.



    It is so accurate that I shoot the heads off grouse @ 100 yards with it when loaded with 200gr SST's @ 2350fps.
