Default Thor i shot in camp

Heres some pics of a tree i took a shot at on the last day in camp. It was the only thing that stayed around long enough for me to shoot at. 247gr Colorado Thor - 110gr pyrodex RS @ 50 yards into a 9" thick Ponderosa pine tree. Entrance, Exit, Wasnt afraid to get a little rain on the Accura's Stainless barrel. Zero rust after 9 days of crappy weather!

I think you hit on something there Bronko. I think the Devil just "OHMmmmed" himself a miss.

Hey! I didnt shoot at the buck and miss! If that had been the case, i'd have nailed the buck even if the tree was in the way! Its cool to see that you can shoot through a 9" tree and nail what ever is behind it LOL.

Man is it snowing!! Already have 3" of wet snow on the ground, total whiteout and still coming on strong. So much for the food plot i had planned on.
