Yup... Powder here... Pellets aren't as consistent.. Don't burn as consistent either I don't think... I use BH209 as well.. Working up a load with my scale to dial it in better.. Right now I just shoot 110 by volume of it..

3.5 I'm thinking... Belly has a slight upswing, if not 3.5 he is 4.5

I put my friend Sandy in my tree stand for the opener trying to get her what would be her first racked deer in Ny after 11 years of hunting... I get a text.. "buck down... you are going to be proud of me".. LOL... And I am... 9 point, 176lbs, perfect shot and gutted it before I got there... She is VERY happy... And should be... 1 of the best bucks we've taken for sure off this place..

I shoot clay skeet targets set at 200 yards... If I can break them every time... My guns can go hunting... LOL.. I never really measure the groups on them... I just shoot the skeet so I know I can kill out that far.. But I would say you can go to 150 yards with that gun and kill...

Mine is my T/C Pro Hunter... I carry either the 30-06 barrel or the 50 Cal BP... Either one.... Love the gun, doesn't matter what I have coming out... LOL

Every piece of the animals killed in Africa get used... A lot more than people use here... Guts and all go to locals.. -
Antler Restrictions - voluntary or otherwise

For me, I try to shoot 6 pt or better... Hence my rifle tag usually becomes a either permit during BP... I shoot a lot of does... Not many bucks make my 6 pt rule.. -

The wife and I went for "basically" that but we shot 6 big game animals the first time and 5 the next.. Think of the cost to shoot 5 or 6 elk... You don't go to Africa to hunt 1 animal, that's not where the "deal" comes in... It's hunting up to 33 different species.... I know guys that have gone over and shot 17 animals in 10 days... -
A clean barrel or do you prefer to have a round or two through the barrel... For me.. I tried for a long time to get my rifle to group better with a pristine barrel (cleaning between rounds) but I just can't get better groups than with a barrel that has a round or two down it... So I always make sure I run a bore snake down my rifle barrel and the shoot at least 1 more round, preferably two and put it away till after the season.. How about you??

I remember my Dad's last deep sea trip with me... We didn't know it at that time... But this is one of my most favorite pics..
-
Um Hell no, I'm not paying $1800.00 for a bow or gun...
-
Exactly... I still go... just never see much if anything... Next year.. no vacation days during that time...
-
Like hunting on a full moon.... My sightings drop dramatically during full moons... I hate them but hunt any ways... But I can't remember the last time I saw good movement on a hunt with anything near a full moon...
-
Very true JJB..... I don't need any issues... Just frustrates me...
-
I like these ideas!!!! Thanks!!!
-
Not public land, a farm I hunt.. but a lot of guys hunt it... I'll try a note first.... They know I usually only hunt Weekends..
-
Someone from hunting a ladder stand??? I've got people climbing into my stands when I'm not hunting... Is it something I have to live with or is there a way I can "block" them from using my stands???
-
Congrats!!!
-
Thanks!!!! Slick Tricks did the trick for sure!!!

Took this doe this past Friday in Ny.. 15 yard shot... The freezer restocking has begun.. LOL
-
Logic??? Show me logic in spray and pray. Feel free. Ull give u 5 percent use Buckshot but tell me the other 95 are safe and u are kidding yourself.
-
#4's are the best. Wont go through walls.

Yeah. Nice try. Buckshot users spend no time at the range. At least slug shooters practice. U try having 2 pellets of that crap hit at your feet and above your head into a tree and then tell me u like it. Feel free. U have nothing on me.
