Man finally have some free times on my hand but I'm not complaining business is good at the moment.
1st Kudu cow Thursday afternoon bullet entered on shoulder opposite and exited as per photo just behind the shoulder. She went 40 meters range was 120 meters.
Did not get time for poper photo session as we spotted two young impala rams and went after them and by the time they busted us it was too dark.
Next morning not even 10 minutes into our walk we bumped into another kudu cow 100 meters bullet went in behind the shoulder and exited on shoulder she managed 30 meters.
2 hours later we bump into a herd of eland and tracker at first thought it was two bulls standing but at closer look they were both mature cows and one gave me a shot at 80 meters she jumped nicley at the shot and managed 30 meters. We waited 5 minutes before taking the tracks giving her time to pass.
Was a dificult shot as her frontside was quartering but back half was broadside bullet eneterd infront of right leg and bullet ended on opposite shoulder just under skin.
Will post some more details on bullet recovery thread.
Afternoon we took a stroll along the Limpopo for waterbuck or impala and bumped into two rams that were fighting. My friend who came along took the younger ram and after the shot the other ram came back and gave me a chance. I was not really after a trophy impala but could not resist this prime impala on the banks of the Limpopo river.
Classic picture on the left my ram measuring in at 24 1/4" and the younger one on the right shot with 6.5x55 and 160gr interlock bullets two classics and a classic photo opportunity.
I think my 7x57 has passed its tests and understands what I expect from it.
Really fell in love with this calibre now.
