204. Rugers first kill!

Post by matt_3479 »

I went out and got myself a 204. Ruger and wow, it's one sweet gun. It might just be my new favorite caliber. I already own a heavy barreled long range rig chambered in a 243. Win so figured I needed a light carry around rig. I went out to sight it in and the 32 gr Vmax shot the best. Literally just as I fired my last round to make sure I'm centered a crow landed on my target. Then flew down 5 feet infront of it, and 10 feet to the left. I held dead center of his chest and I got to watch the bird go in 3 different directions all through the scope!! Wicked round! I love the 204

It's hard to detect good luck, It looks so much like something you've worked hard for and earned.
