Congrats, one of my favorite eating critters.

thanks , i think im going to be switching to my creedmoor for the rest of my tags gettig inside a good range to shoot with the grendel is very hard on flat land with no cover the creedmoor will extend my good shooting range by a good bit , that being said with good shot placement i think id take the grendel out to 500/550ish yards
my deer tags are also active right now but i typically wait till september to start filling those tags ive got some better bullets on the way so ill have time to work up a load with those and go back to the grendel for the deer

Mel where the heck are you with active deer tags already? Great shootin but good grief making us envious with those tags!

Congrats on number 1 mel. I'm jealous but vicariously enjoying tracking your success. Looking forward to the vids.

Use the RAV function on the scope and there's a lot less editing
