Here is a buck I shot about an hour ago here in Florida with my blackout. I was shooting a custom build with a 16" Wilson match barrel and nosler 125 grain ballistic tips. He was 125 yards away.

Thanks guys!!!

And I could weigh it but I think its around 8 or 9 with optics and 20 round mag....

And I agree, its ridiculous people think you must have a 50 BMG for deer or hogs. Even a 223 works great if stuck right through the pump house!!

Agreed. I usually only use .223 for does because I don't want to risk losing a buck, but it works just as well on hogs as the bigger calibers. Shot placement is key.

Very cool, nice work there.

Looks like ya'll's deer hunting weather is about like ours right now. I lived in Gainesville for a year and still recall that I only ran my heater for about a 1 week period during the winter. Seems like the leaves were off the trees for about 2 weeks, then they started coming back.
