Hey guys(maybe gals) new to the site. Really enjoy it. Going thru some frustration? That might be the phrase. I've had my .50 rolling block for about 2 years now. Opening weekend i decided, "by God i'm gonna give this ML some hell, so whitetail deer watchout!" Well long story short this gorgeous doe waltzes my way, not but 50 yards away. Go thru the motions and fire. FREAKIN MISS!! AHHH!! What happened? I Haven't missed a deer in 15 years! Then it taunted me for about 20 seconds. Frustrated walked back to camp to blow off steam while i delt with the "ha ha Davy Crockett statements from my friends." I thought it might be the load, but later we decided to see if that was the case. Set up targets, and it was dead on. I'm using 2 777 50gr w/ 295gr powerbelt. So what was the deal? Nerves? Newer Rifle? Lighter grain? Any help would be great.
Anyways, later that afternoon went back out with my .270 Savage, and bagged her(at least I'm gonna think it was her). Rvenge is so sweet.
