Big doe on opening morning and my biggest buck yet, a 10-pointer the next morning. He's no magazine-cover deer, but my biggest thus far. I'm shooting 2 Pyrodex Pellets and a 250 grain Shockwave. No blood trail, however, both deer dropped within 80 yards of where they were shot, the doe only about 10. The buck was a 190-yard shot, which I have NEVER practiced anything over 120 and I simply adjusted up a little bit and put it right in the goods. The new T/C impressed the crap out of me and I'm a full-time blackpowder man come firearm season in Illinois from now on. All the other guys shoot shotguns and were on my case before we hunted for not being able to reload as quickly, but once they saw the range and accuracy of this weapon, they too were very impressed. For those of you who have helped me along in the process of getting me ready for gun season with my new Omega, I sincerely thank you. I know there were others, but I especially remember okiedude lending a hand on several occassions, so thanks man. If I can figure out how to post a pic on this message, I'll put the buck on here, but for now he's on my page.
