    The way that stag hunched up unfortunately looked like a solid hit low just behind the rib cage. Great, you had the dog there to track. Most likely tucked up a k or so down that slope. It sucks. Glad you called it for the reality it is. Besutiful country.

    Bloody 308 drops 12 inches at 300 yards. No solid whack after the shot either...who knows!

    Yes a definite flinch low down on the camera. But hey we have all been through that feeling of not being able to retrieve an animal for whatever reason. Great effort thou mate ! Keep the Vids coming and roll on the roar !!

    Awesome vid mate.....like u say it happens and ya gotta move on. The roars coming so i see a redemption episode coming! I didn't find my first sika stag at the time of shooting him and found his bones a year later and retrieved the head...added to the story that i will tell the generations of hunters to come. Good luck in the roar

    I reckon that stag was soft on the tops anyway. And you shouldn't have to dial for 300. Where itching to get some hard antler hunting, though I know.

    It's fantastic for scenic shots in the mountains, amazing for zooming in on animals and kill shots. It's hopeless for filming in the bush. It's very heavy (1.4kg) and even with carbon tripod is like carrying another rifle

    I'm still not sure Matt, gut feel is a miss, especially how much the 308 drops at 300 yards. Stag certainly jumped like a hit
