Hoobillys WaffleHouse Tour 18 Whitetail
Missed this buck yesterday mid morning. Clean miss with a low shot. This afternoon I got back in my tree stand and was there approximately 20-30 minutes and here he came pushing 5 doe towards me. Steyer 243 via Winchester Deer Season XP's in 95 grain bullets blew the lungs outta him. Hopefully I can get some daytime pictures tomorrow as night pictures suck

Re: Hoobillys WaffleHouse Tour 18 Whitetail
I can’t temember how long I’ve owned this rifle. 12 years? Shoots excellent. The Winchester Deer Season XP’s shoot about as good as handloads.ICDEDTURKES wrote: ↑November 18th, 2018, 11:31 pmJK after watching sal smash um, yeah I shoot one nowhoobilly wrote: ↑November 18th, 2018, 11:29 pmexactly! shoot a 243 and stay young forever!ICDEDTURKES wrote: ↑November 18th, 2018, 11:27 pm Congratulations, that's a great deer. 243s are for kids

Re: Hoobillys WaffleHouse Tour 18 Whitetail
Ooooh, good one. Congrats. But there is a new rule on deer size. 1st shot no deduction. Starting with the second shot there is a 50% deduction with each additional pull of the trigger on antler score and body weight.

Nice buck Brice!!! .243 or a 6mm can be bad news for a deer with the right bullet! I like handloading Barnes 80 grain TTSX bullets.
Re: Hoobillys WaffleHouse Tour 18 Whitetail
Congratulations on a fine buck, Brice! Nice that he gave you a chance at redemption. The hot girls lead him down the wrong path.

Re: Hoobillys WaffleHouse Tour 18 Whitetail
FYI. For those that don’t know..
The .243 is a necked down version of the .308.
Very similar to the .25-06.
Plenty good for deer.
They kill them with pointy sticks everyday!

Very nice deer and the .243 is a great caliber for deer and antelope.

That's some nice redemption right there...heck of a deer! CONGRATS
Re: Hoobillys WaffleHouse Tour 18 Whitetail
That's a goodun!
Re: Hoobillys WaffleHouse Tour 18 Whitetail
That’s good buck. Monster. Good deal and good shot.
Speaking of caliber. I’ve killed a few with .223 55 grain ballistic tip. It does a number on them. I don’t own a .243. But own a .270 and like it to.

159.25 with a cloth tape. I didn’t think it was that nice when I shot him. I figured 145+
