After a three year dry spell I took out my new CVA Scout V2 45-70 rifle loaded with Hornady 325 grain LeverEvolution ammunition.  I watched a couple small does that morning letting them pass although I had an any-deer permit.  This doe walked out a little later in the morning and was noticeably larger.  She walked around in front of me for close to 15 minutes before I decided to take her.  She was angled slightly away from me so the shot placement is a little further back from her left shoulder than I usually aim for but it came out through the opposite shoulder doing the job.  This was my first whitetail that ever ran after being shot with the a 45-70 though she only ran about 75 yards or so with a good blood trail.  As a result I decided to no longer use the LeverEvolution ammo on whitetail in my 45-70 rifles opting instead for Buffalo Barnes 300 grain HP magnum ammo.
