Wow, when did they change to 40cal minimum for deer. I thought it used to be 45cal with no sabots.
SWEET!!!

THANKS GUYS! I forgot to mention when I dropped the Head off @ the CP&W (Colorado Parks & Wildlife) for the CWD (Chronic Wasting Disease) Check they said this Deer is a Hybrid & is part Whitetail. (basket rack features) The aggressive Whitetail Bucks breed with the Mule Deer Does around here.
I owe a lot of my success to this Board, especially Dave W., Carlos, bestill, Luke & 45omega for their patience with annealing, full form sizing & safe loads with the .40 Cal

40cal in Colorado? Rifle season im assuming then? It's been .40 cal or larger for deer, bear, antelope for as long as I've been hunting Colorado in the muzzleloading season. 15+ years. Elk and Moose require .50 cal or larger. Congratulations to the OP on the hybrid. You can really see the Whitetail in the rack.
