It seems like we have a _______ success on big game thread for most every caliber, but I am interested in a success thread for copper monos of any caliber/cartridge.

I am interested more and more in shooting copper. I went hunting with a 308 shooting 130ttsx at 3025fps with the idea of keeping shots under 300 yards but haven't been able to connect yet.

So please share any success photos or stories you have when shooting monos on big game.

Thanks!
 
Took a cow elk at 340ish yards with a 300 win mag shooting Barnes 165 TTSX. High lung on the first shot sent shock waves through her I could see in my scope. She staggered and I put one mid body to try and stop her. Next follow up hit her while she was falling down. All 3 passed through. Whole ordeal was about 10 seconds and she died 5 ft from where she stood for the 1st shot. I'm pretty sure shots 2 and 3 were just me keeping busy until she fell.
