Thanks guys. I'm using just plain ole corn. I've got a feeder going off in the morning but from the pics nothing is coming in until almost dark and only hogs. I had to move my stand from earlier in the season because someone put a stand less than 100 yards from mine and they knew I was hunting there.
Finally recovered from the drag. No fun. I gave her to a older couple to have processed. They really appreciated it.

I shot her in the forehead so i didn't get to recover the bullet. The next rounds i load up will be 300 gr. XTPs. The 250s aren't built for 454 velocity .

My advice is get an ATV for the dragging part; looks like the 454 has everything else handled.
