Well it ought to knock the snot out of the mini-deer we have in the Huachuca Mountains.
It's a good thing their small though. I went hunting several years ago with a buddy and he popped one of those little Cous white tails from across a canyon. It damn near killed us both getting it out of the canyon. And we were both on active duty in the Army and in good shape. I don't know what we would have done if it had been a muley or on of those monster bucks like the boys back east have. Probably quartered it and packed it out.
I didn't get a deer that year, but I did have a lion give me the eye from about 30 yds away. I was sitting under a big Juniper tree watching some deer trails that came through the area. Then I saw 2 great big black circles that weren't there the last time I scanned that area. It took me a few seconds to figure out that it was a lions eyes because the lion was sitting down, and the grass was exactly the same color as he was. I put the cross hairs on him and just looked. He got up and walked off after a couple of minutes. I guess he figured I was too stinky and stringy to be a good meal. I'm sure somebody is thinking "Why didn't you shoot it?" Hey, I was DEER hunting, not lion hunting. That is a memory I will never forget. It's also the only lion I have ever seen.
