Turns out you can kill a 23lb bobcat with a 300 gr Harvester PT Gold and 110gr of Blackhorn. I set the load up for a bear hunt and it looks like it works on smaller stuff also. Good thing I was sighted in for 200 yds...since the shot was at 15!

He's already at the taxidermist for rugging. He really is a pretty cat, shows rosettes all around and has a much lighter coat than any others that we have taken. He is about 10 lbs lighter than my biggest one but much nicer.

Good going bcranch. That's a pretty big cat (and beautiful too). You've saved the lives of several of next year's fawns.
