Spike @657 yds

Another test with the 7 mag and 162 A-max. The buck was quartering towards me so I place the cross hair at the base of the right side of the neck. The bullet stuck rupturing the artery and splitting the brisket, then exiting below the left shoulder breaking the leg, leaving a baseball size hole. Not one internal organ like the heart, lungs, liver was even scratched. He ran about 15 yds into the bean field, stopped and turned two circles like a dog finding a spot to lay down and that was the end.

Hi Jim, the photo has to be hosted by a hosting site. I tend to use google picasa. Upload the photo to picasa into a folder. Next, click on the folder and expand the picture to its full size, then right click on the phot and 'copy image location'

Next, do yoour post here, then click the little image icon in the top panel/menu. This will bring up this:

The whole blurb will look a bit like this:


In the wound database, I upload images directly to the websites data base. The forums do not have this feature and follow typical online forum formats, using a hosting company to save space on the website's host server.

Keep trying, don't worry about deleting any posts, I'll tidy up after you have had a play.

I don't see "copy image location" on the drop down menu.

Here is how it looks on my computer Jim. You may have a different operating system. Basically, you need to find a way to copy that image location via the options available when you hover over the image and right click your mouse or laptop.

Re: Spike @657 yds
Yes I do. I'm not sure if I uploaded that pic or if Nathan did it for me. My intentions were to load the image of the exit wound, but something didn't work. I'll try again tonight. This Pisaca thing is not as easy as I thought it would be.

The A-Max is a hard hitting bullet for sure. Thanks for sharing Jim.
