35 grain Berger did its job, look at the neck you can faintly see the entrance and of course no exit.

Good Dog. How far out was it? That county looks like you could get some long shots in.

the shot was about 100 yards, actually I shot him coming across a frozen lake, 2 of them came in and 1 left, I watched them come for about a 1/2 mile just tiny dots to begin with. load and bullet 28.4 grains of H-4895 and the Berger 35 grain HP
