Got my first charlie to night, he came charging in to mouth call, at about 70 yards little bark, squeeze the trigger and he fell to the ground

70 yards and such a small target - nice shot, well placed.

Next time see just how far the fox will come in. I am never surprised to see just how close they come. Could have hit one with a snowball a few weeks back.:D

What scope did you use?

Good shooting and a clean kill, many more to come for ya. It's a great way to spend a few hours.

It's a Bushnell Sportsman 4-12-40 with burris mounts
not sure if it's good enough for centerfire because it goes a little of zero at times, I think, but not sure maybe it's just me

Good shot, well done may it be the first of many .

like I said above this is the first fox with this gun
but on paper it seems fairly flat out 250 or so
