Re: last Shoot of 18, maybe

I use both, have a ico tech and like it, but still (old school, I guess) I use a mouth call 75 percent of the time. Have about three of them, in various major brands, that I like. Mostly I use the jack rabbit or cottontail squeal sounds. Bill K

When the squirrels slow down, then I begin hitting the sage/desert areas more for Jacks and coyotes. So there is always something to call or hunt. Bill K

What type of critters, small or large in the varmint type do you have, down your way ? Nutria, etc. But it is nice, sitting, as I say, out smelling the fresh cut alfalfa, waiting for heads to pop up. Bill K

Re: last Shoot of 18, maybe

So can we, but that alfalfa is still growing very fast, after they cut, bail and put water back on for another crop. But there are places to shoot still, even if it is slowing down. Still always nice to sit out there early in the morning, sun coming up and a cup of coffee glassing. Bill K

Re: last Shoot of 18, maybe

Brooksb. Did you get a new table or change the top/cradle on the old one ? Looks like a nice area to shoot. Thanks for sharing. With the heat, alfalfa growing so fast and all, the shooting down this way as slowed, as they are really hard to see, plus I think a lot of them have went back underground ...

No photos or not Brooks. Glad you had a good time and shoot, in the end. And finding a new area, is always nice. Bill K

Re: 2018 Going Postal 5 Shot Challenge

If you ask them they will say YES.. Send a certified letter to someone, request signature and return notice and you will see if that one worked anyway. Bill K

Re: extreme range 600 to 1000 yds

varget204, if you have not asked if RIO would post them, for you. You might do as I do. I have trouble posting them on the site/thread, but I can make my album and get my photo's posted/entered there, with no problem. You might open a album and do the same. Go to the top header, clic community then ...

Re: Squeek and Rock Chuck hunt

Those were taken with the 17 Fireball. Both of us have worked up one each too add to our 20 VT's and Scc's. That little fireball is very impressive. Just when we said no more and stick to the 20's, we get into the 17 Fire ball over our 17 HMR's, it never ends.. Bill K
