Nice pelt. Any damage on the other side? Should tan up nicely.
Congratulations

That is a nice looking rifle setup there and the fox looks to be mighty fine too.

What material is you moderator made out of==Titanium?? How much does it weigh?

Only a very small hole on the exit wound - lovely condition - i'd say about 3-4 years old

sidesy--One of their moderators that is suitable for .204, .223, .224 calibers weighs only 349 grams, which is about 12.3 ounces!!! Not bad! Does it reduce the sound level to where you can shoot your rifle without hearing protection?

My AAC Ranger II moderator weighs in at about 15 ounces and it does an excellent job of moderating the sound.

What type of round did you use to not mess up the hide?
