Took out the Win-13 for it's first hunt.I was using some reloads,and the bullet was a Sierra 150gr PSP.These are the bullets I always use for hunting and every bullet resembles this if found,which weighed in at 123.5 grns after recovery and cleaning...btw,the bullet passed through 2 ribs behind front shoulder,went through both lungs,hit the right front shoulder edge and then stuck in the hide.I was really surprised it did not exit at this range because He was only 40 yards!He fell dead 10 yards away...Sorry,no pics of the Buck yet as my camera was dead so had to have friend take a photo at home here is the rifle and recovered bullet.He was a huge bodied Buck and was very old and losing mass,so only a 2X3,but I aint a head hunter ;)

What's with the wrap on the charging handle?

The photoshopped text "bullet" and arrow was very helpful also.

Dude, seriously? Your performance with photo taking has more than one member here sick and tired looking for a jewelers loop.

Get some glasses then old fart,they are huge on my screen. This is a very trying time for me because I got a pic with my cell,then can't get it off the phone..THEN,I go to take a pic at home with me and my good camera that I left at home,only to have it say"battery exhausted".Did I also mention I forgot my hunting knife and had to go to inlaws and find a knife,only to discover they only had serrated kitchen knife,ever try to field dress a deer with steak knife? I am so sad now Timory Shuffleupakiss!

I wish I could say I didn't know your pain Prince. The Elk hunt I was just on, camera man had perfect video, a clear view. We get back to camp to watch the 35 Whelen do its thing and the camera man never hit the record button! All I have is video of the climb down the mountain for retrieval and then a finishing shot at the end. The Mule deer shot was not great either, lots of sun in the background.

All this said, to screw up still photo's is just wrong and you owe us all an apology, you broke the man code.
