I’m shocked. Looked like more retained than 50gr. Dead is dead. Congrats I am as well. A picture I took of the deer on Dec 3rd. God Bless, David B.

Shot a doe while slipping around after work today. She stepped out in the road around 85-90 yards away, and looked at me, standing straight on. She made the mistake of allowing me to lay prone, and the bullet entered above her nose, 2" from the end of nose on her bridge, dead center. There wasn't anything left of her lower mouth other than 3/4" right side and 1" left side of her lower back jaw bones. No lower jaw, skin, tongue, hair, nothing. It just disappeared in 270WSM obviation. I looked all around where she dropped and couldn't find anything other than a tuff of white hair and the painted red ground mixed with brown oak leaves. The bullet was found on the back of her neck just under the skin when she was cleaned. It folded back nicely, better than the 7pt shot in the shoulder. God Bless, David B.

That’s great! You still clinging to that rifle I see. Yep, All I’ve shot/hunted with (rifle) since I finished it. Thinking about using it for Turkey season. God Bless, David B.

I had to find this thread again. Love that gun. I gave the Featherweight a rest last year as I was wanting to shoot a deer with my dad's old rifles. I did that so I'm toting my .270 Featherweight this year. I'll post up a kill as well. Mine uses Hornady 140gr BTSP.

Post up your featherweight kills here please! Here’s another coyote I took with the 270WSM Featherweight. Made a long 250 plus shot bracing off the Polaris steering wheel. She was mousing in a fresh cut clover field when we drove up. Didn’t expect to get her, as she went out of my sight picture when I shot/pulled trigger. Notice the piece of meat in the tree, as she made her last leap across the creek! The bank on her side is 3-4 feet lower than where I’m standing on the field side, where I’m taking the picture. Dad found this when we went to look to see if I made the hit. God Bless, David B.
