I was finally able to kill something besides paper with thumper. This forum has been a great source of information from building my thumper to reloading for it! Next time I will avoid the shoulder area and hopefully save some meat!

Congrats all the same. Getting to where you can take a shot in the first place is the hardest part. What load did you use? I also assume that was a stop, drop and thrash shot?

You are correct it was shoulder to shoulder through and through and yes drop and thrash was it. The load was a 225 grain Hornady FTX over 37.5 grains of lil' gun
