"I hunted the third rifle season in Colorado (2011) and killed this five by five bull with my custom Dixie Firearms .475 Linebaugh at 103 yards. My load was a 400 grain Hornady® XTP moved along by a healthy dose of Hodgon® H-110." |

"About 9:00 in the morning on the last day of the Colorado deer season, I was "still" hunting and glassed a buck walking through the trees. I made a good stalk on him, and considered passing him up but then my common sense took over. The buck was intent on following a doe track; had his nose to the ground, and he was walking through the heavy timber. I rested my Dixie Firearms Custom .475 Linebaugh on the side of a tree and waited for him to come into an opening. He kept walking so I "kissed" my lips together (a tactic I have used to stop coyotes successfully) and he stopped, at maybe 30 yards, quartering away. I settled the J-Point® red dot and squeezed. He jumped; tried to run but his off shoulder (right side) was flopping and he crashed after about 20 yards, and lay still.
The 400 grain Hornady® XTP took him in the left ribs and exited the right shoulder, destroying the lungs and clipping the top of the heart." |
