  1. 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
  3. 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..
  4. 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...
  5. 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
  6. We eat only game harvested while there,,, The balance goes to locals..
  7. Every piece of the animals killed in Africa get used... A lot more than people use here... Guts and all go to locals..
  8. 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..
  9. 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...
  10. 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??
  11. 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..
  12. Um Hell no, I'm not paying $1800.00 for a bow or gun...
  13. Exactly... I still go... just never see much if anything... Next year.. no vacation days during that time...
  14. 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...
  15. Very true JJB..... I don't need any issues... Just frustrates me...
  16. I like these ideas!!!! Thanks!!!
  17. 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..
  18. 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???
  19. Thanks!!!! Slick Tricks did the trick for sure!!!
  20. Took this doe this past Friday in Ny.. 15 yard shot... The freezer restocking has begun.. LOL
  21. 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.
  22. #4's are the best. Wont go through walls.
  23. 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.
