Real nice one! Congrats.  How was the pelt after the hit?

I have a white light on my gun.  When I turned it on she stopped and turned broadside.  Shot went in the ribs and hit the leg on the other side.  Pin hole in, about dime size out using 35 grain V-Max about 60 yards.

OUtstanding no pelt damage!

If you don't mind please post it on the other site you visit too.  I'm sure many that visit there would like to see a red fox shot with the 22 hornet.

Nice! Congrates. That is a good looking gun you got there. Did you call it in with a mouth call or an e-caller?

Yes, it hit.  Had to order a higher set of rings.

Started out with bulb sqeaker for about 5 min.  Then used a distress handcall for about another 5.  Waited a couple min and turned on the JS grey fox pup, she was there almost instantly.
