Cheez ... the only thing stealing my "maters" has a furry tail, scurries a lot, and would do well with buckshot! 

Enie .. meanie .. minnie .. moe

Root for Churly ... or the doe?

Opps I meant to say the Buck ...

One of them will need some luck.

Which one it is, I yet don't know.

Why I do .. enie meanie minnie moe!

That little tree rat can only eat so many tomatoes. I think he has some help.

I counted 6 squirrels in the tree next to the garden yesterday.  Six .. and that's only the ones I could see.  They were eating Memosia seed pods.  Weird.

good golly miss molly!!! Who knew there was soo much to hunting?!?! Not me! You guys are smart I read all the information about bullets, velocity and exit vs non exit shots. All very interesting and makes a lot of sense. You guys are pretty darn smart!

Churly .. seen the Big Boy around lately? I need to decide who I'm rooting for this year pretty darn soon! Sounds like a nice rifle ... I bought my x a 30.06 for Christmas one year and it was a pretty gun. I never shot it, I had a 30-30. Is it possible to have you post a picture?

I have not seen the "Big Boy" this year, but I have seen some big boys I'd be happy to take. I have a ton of pics I'd like to post from the trail cam but my computer at the house, is down and I have not downloaded any of the 150+ trail cam pics I have, but I will just for you! I'll try to post a pic of the gun soon. Its a perfect set-up for someone who is looking for a light, inexpensive rifle.

glad to know it shoots well. were you using factory ammo or handloads? also, can you adjust the trigger yourself easily on those guns? i adjusted my 2 rem.700's (sshhh don't tell remington) myself, and they are now fantastic. a fairly light crisp trigger with no creep is vital to accuracy.

I have a box of the Barnes X point (100gr.) packaged by Federal. I have never hand-loaded anything, and I am not a gunsmith, would love to be proficient at either. If any of you fellas want to hand-load a round or two for me, I'd pay the price for a custom bullet!?

As for the trigger, I am not complaining, but you know how a factory trigger just doesn't feel right after pulling one that has been doctored. Does anyone know of a good gun smith that can adjust my trigger with out putting me in debt? Jmax and I are going to scout some ground tomorrow, and I am carrying my gun in case a pack of hogs decides to stop by! RRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEE! Heeeere Souie!

Since you are downloading the trail cam just for me .. be sure and label what deer you really really want to take .. and this year .. I'll do the prayer beads for YOU!



Can't wait to see both trail cam pics and the new fire power.

Will do! I may not be able to get it posted till Monday morning, but either way I'll have it for ya.

Just use the prayer beads to wish me safe and fun journeys! I never pray for a kill, only a safe return home! The rest will fall into place!
