7mm BB, XLR250 green light and a NICE south central TX sow

First, thanks to Bob in TX, Marko and others who have given reports on the Elusive WIldlife Technologies products. I used a feeder light the other evening to take a nice boar, and tonight, I got to use the scope-mounted XLR250 green LED light, and it did not disappoint. I had clear target acquisition at an estimated 170 yards (I'll laser it tomorrow to get an exact reading) and had no problems aligning the crosshairs on the vitals.

This was not hunting but more of nuisance control, and I barely had to leave the yard to make this shot. But it still feels good to take out a porker every now and then...

Pardon the photo as it is not how I wanted to set it up, but in this heat and humidity, every second counts. I was not feeling up to the butchering process, so some folks from within the county kindly came to get this sow.

Great work as usual, Bobby! I used the same light (XLR 250) on a handgun not long ago. It was a little heavy offhand, but it worked like a charm!

Congratulations!!

How are you feeling nowadays, Bobby?
