As a member of Deer Search, I can tell you that I have had more than a few calls to find deer shot with a 22-250 and 243s. Most were not recovered. Now I'm not saying that they won't kill deer. You just have a smaller margin for error on shot placement,and usually a very light blood trail. That being said, with the right bullet and knowing the the rifles capabilities as well as your own, have at it. To each their own.

From what I hear,the trooper used a hand gun,on a running target. And got two hits with two shots. Nice shooting! But I wish the shot placement was just a bit better.

Nice job Biz! Very nice collection of critters and the room looks great.

I think the AR platform makes a fine sporting gun. Wish I had one and could use it here, set up the way I would want it to be.

Good one! Is he on the hit list for this season? -
Our NYS law enforcement has done a great job under very difficult conditions. One down and one to go. Hoping they wrap this up soon.

With her dowry, I can buy me a simmons scope to put in these empty rings! And maybe a new t-shirt from wally world too!

Bash away if you want. My opinion is,has always been and will be, that only a man and woman should be married. Not really gay bashing, you are who you are,I get that. There could be civil unions,got no problem with that. This country and world we live in these days,seems to be going to hell in a hand basket.

Cool critter pic, but I can't make out anything in it's mouth ether. Even got my good glasses to look!

Life is now smiling at you! Just smile back.

Thanks,I needed a reminder.

I have shot deer wearing jeans and a flannel shirt, red/black and green/black checkered, treebark,mossyoak,realtree camo, snow camo and blaze orange. As long as I set up in a good spot with the wind in my face and be as quiet and still as I can be, I could most likely shoot one in a loin cloth.
-
I would say he has injured the pedicle too. But in a couple of years he will have a very unique and interesting set of antlers. I'd let him grow,just to see how he turns out. And who knows,he may grow a normal set next year. Ya just never know!

I've said it before. The only scents that make sense to me,is common sense for deer hunting.

After I spend four and a half hours mowing the yard, my wife says she is going out to trim the hedges in front of the house. Translated to....she want's me to do the hedges too.

Anything that screws into the tree is not legal on public land.

Q: What is a "real" hunter? A: Here ya go....
grampy replied to mike rossi's topic in General Hunting
Seems to me that if it were not for the "trading post" they would really be good hunter gatherers. I think I remember this film from high school in the 70's. -
These guy's are not woodsmen, like Bucky was. I don't think they have been in the woods for two weeks and avoided the massive search teams looking for them. More likely to be holed up somewhere outside of the search area. Don't think they are sill together ether. If they were smart enough to break out, they have to know that it's easier to hide out on your own, going in different directions.

Cool pic's! Nice job! And it's ok, none of us are in the same league as wooly!
-
To all the Dads, Stepdads, Grandpa's and Great Grandpa's, Happy Fathers Day! Nice job guy's.

For the most part, if you raise em up right they will turn out to be fine adults. Those tween and teen years are where we all made mistakes, and most of us turned out ok. Didn't we?.........
