Annoying Yard Bucks Anyone?
I never saw the point in whacking a tiny little ball into the woods and spending hours looking for it. -

The pig I shot today wouldn't have given me time to range and adjust. I didn't even have time to adjust magnification. -

I don't know how many times I could have been dropped on my head. It was a long time ago! As far as doing the animals a favor,,,if I don't have 100 % confidence I'm going to make my shot, I'm not going to take it. Unlike others I don't "spray and pray". The Ruger #1 is a one shot rifle.

Ok, here's my thoughts. It's the load you helped me develop. Being a 6.5 I figured my kill range is limited, plus I don't see any reason to change bullets, and I only hunt on familiar property. I'm not big on Gizmo's and doo-dads. Would I need to range my shots first? I don't sit and wait hunt...
