Redfires claim another chipper

Went 'hunting' after work this morning. Only got one, but it was a big old sucker. I saw the chipmunk dart under a planter, so I sighted on the spot and waited. Just then his head popped out and I was going to take the shot, but he ran the rest of the way out and paused. Hunched over and sitting on his back legs facing me, so I aimed at the top of his melon. I think I flinched a little because instead of a head shot, I hit him just right of the center line. He folded and lay still, so I went to check. There was a nasty entrance in front of his left shoulder and after a few minutes, I found the small exit wound next to his spine at the base of his tail. It was fairly small and clean, I almost missed it.
So it looks like the Redfire entered his chest, traveled through the chest cavity, through the abdomen and out by the tail, crossing from left to right through the body. You couldn't hope for a better shot, instant DRT.
Sorry no pic, my camera phone was dead.
