Northern Minnesota Deer
Got this little guy in northern MN. Last summer I was up to my uncle's place where I go 4-wheeling and deer hunting. I found a nice little area with a lot of deer sign. A week before deer hunting, I went back up there and put up my deer stand. 3 days of sitting there paid off. I just happened to look behind me and there he was around 120 yards away with his nose in the rear of a doe. The bullet went through both lungs and the heart. He jumped once, and fell over. Thanks to SSA for their awesome round, SSA 110 grain Sierra Pro Hunter was used. Denny
James' Deer at 125 Yards
Shot at about 125 yards using a WOA 18'' SS barrel sold by Denny over at GTS with SSA 110 grain Sierra Pro Hunter. Been hunting this place for 5 years now and finally got a deer there. Would have been a doe too but I rushed that shot a little and smooth missed. Hit the deer on the right side and it went through and through but clipped the top of the heart and made a mess of the internals. Deer ran about 20 yards and dropped. Inset pic shows the accuracy of the WOA barrel and SSA 110 grain pro hunter round with me shooting it at 100 yards the very first time ever out.
Enjoy and thanks for the ammo! James
Georgia Doe taken with 6.8SPC Pro Hunters
This weekend I was hunting at my club in a county in eastern Georgia on Clark Hill Lake. It was my first trip to the woods with a 6.8 having used AR platform extensively while in the military. Seeing first hand the stopping power of a 5.56 while in the sandbox I had a strong feeling the 6.8 was going to more than match any North American Game I could dance in front of it.
Prior to going on the hunt I went to the range to zero my rifle. I was immediately struck by the dead-on accuracy at the range. Zeroed at 100 meters and every shot was nearly touching. After three groups I was ready to head home to pack for the rest of the trip.
I arrived in my stand about 20 minutes before sunrise. One hour after the sun came up a group of does walked right up to me. I dropped the largest of the group at about 50 meters. I hit her once hard in the right shoulder. She dropped like a sack of bricks. Not one twitch or kick...she went right down. She dropped so calmly the other deer were not even spooked. Matter of fact, the deer closest to the one I dropped rolled on the ground like she was playing with the one I dropped. Needless to say I am very impressed with your 110 Pro Hunter and I have a new favorite hunting round.Mike, Atlanta, GA, US Army Retired
