Howdy I will try and post my first pic. here. A Wt. hunt in 2012 with my favorite 1876 Winchester 45/75 wcf. hunting rifle. The load was 350 gr. soft lead bullet from an original Winchester mould loaded over a case full of 2ffg Swiss bp.std. Winchester primer ,and put together with a original Winchester tong tool.

Thanks to all . Dimrod,that is the exit wound showing in the pic. I had spooked that bk. out of a rocky draw,and he put about 160 paces between us before I got him stopped with a whistle. I lined up the sights and give him a barrel. He jumped into the air hit hard fell to the ground recovered and scrambled about 25 yd. before giving up the gohst. Happened fast ! The smoke was still hanging in the air ,and he was down for keeps. Nothing like hunting with the old rifles. ,,,,Dusty Texian
