Savage/Barnes/Pac Nor/Leupold Gang up on an Ohio Buck Here is a picture of The buck I killed in Ohio On Nov 29. I have been hunting this guy for 2 weeks with a bow and he has been just out of Range. The last time I saw him he was 40 yards. I feel pretty confident with a bow and I have won a few 3d archery tournaments but 40 yards for me just don't feel right. Anyway I was using a Savage 10ml with a Pac Nor 45 Shooting 70G of H322 and a Barnes 195bx This load is traveling about 2670 fps. The shot was about 85 yards and it hit the right shoulder past thru the the ribs smashed the left rib smashed the left shoulder and ended up just underneath the hide on the left side of the deer. The bullet opened up really well and did a fine job. I will post pictures of it next week. I am leaving for a Virginia bear hunt in the morning

That one will cost you some taxidermy fees. Good buck by any standards.
