    SD 'lope takes a nap

    This took place a few weeks ago. Went roadtripping to scout out some pheasant areas. The area had a few leftover 'lope tags so I picked up a couple and headed out. I only had one day to hit it so if I saw a respectable buck it was gonna be in danger. Found the birds. Took me a couple...

    SD turkeys #1 and #2

    Two birds down in South Dakota so far. Bird #1- The first was a big mature bird taken in the Black Hills near my house. This particular area burned last summer. The birds are in the burn area thick as flies. They like the new green up I suspect. This bird was the boss bird of a bachelor...

    Rifles for a lifetime?

    1_pointer: I agree with a .338 Win mag on top. Federal offers a 250 grain Nosler Partition in its' HIGH ENERGY line that has the best performance of any among the traditionally biggest calibers. I'm a loyal 30-06 user, so I have to champion that caliber for the mid-range slot. I use Federal...

    what do you require in a varment gun

    All of the above... Be it Prairrie Poodles across an open field or Song Dogs coming to a call or harrassing an Antelope doe with a fawn in the brush. The first and foremost requirement is accuracy. A prairrie dog at 300 or 400 meters is a pretty small target. I need to know that when I lay...

    Define HUNTING

    I like Moosie's, Meathead's, and 1-pointer's. Here's mine: Hunting is seeking food. That's the short version. I like Jose Ortega's statement, One kills in order to have hunted, not hunt in order to kill. The spiritual part is like 1-pointer said, hunting gets at the source of life, the cycle...

    Who has killed what with a .243

    Thanks for sharing all of your experience. Since I still have not shot this rifle and it is new in the box, now I am thinking about trading it off. I have a .300 mag which I use for elk and deer, a 30-06 which my wife uses for elk and deer, and a single shot .223 H/R varminter I use for chucks...

    .22 Centerifres

    Well, It's about time you decided to hang out over here. I like all of the 22 centerfires. I have the first 223 varmint gun that I ever built and it still shoots sub 3/8 inch groups. I've tried the 22-250, the 222 and it's magnum alter ego, the 220 swift, and several of the 22/243...
