Just so all the Oregon guys know, rats are starting to get up pretty good. Been seeing quite a bit around noon. We went out shooting from almost 4 to 5:30 and shot 80 centerfires and 50 rimfires. Got one at 480 on my first shot. Pure luck as I guessed the range :lol: As well as some squirrels, we al...

Yeah I know, I know, I just don't bring cameras to my cousin's house. I mean teenagers, with an expensive piece of digital equipment, on a ranch, with snow, it would just be bad luck for a camera :lol: I'm not worried about shooting rats early, they are a farmer's worst enemy and they reproduce fast...

Hey guys, haven't been on here for a while. I was at my cousin's house this weekend and we spotted a fresh badger mound out in his pivot. I grabbed the binoculars and looked around a little for it when I spotted a SAGE RAT, in about 4 inches of snow :eek: So, naturally I decided that it would be bad...

His barrels are also single-point-cut , and as far as I know, only Kreiger and Obermeyer produce single point cut barrels, all others are either button-cut, broach-cut or hammer-forged. , Brux, Bartlien, and Lawton all make cut barrels as well. I have a Krieger chambered in .243 AI being put on my ...

Welcome to the forum atavuss, good introduction :wink: There was a golden eagle that was injured somehow at my cousin's farm last year that would let us get within 5 feet of it. My little jack russel dog just about got ate :lol: They are really cool birds. We did call and had somebody come out to re...

Looks like you had a good time again. Must be nice to run 100 yards over to the store and grab a soda or something Good shot on the yote.

I am going to try to sell this to fund part of a new build. Don't shoot it much now anywho. It's a Savage 93R17 without the accutrigger, but the trigger is manageable. It comes with a BSA Sweet .17 scope, the 3-12x40 model. It isn't a Leupold, but it holds zero well and is plenty clear for rabbit an...

Draw results are out on the ODFW site. Big goose egg for me and my dad Hopefully get some leftover tags. How'd everybody else do?

We are going to be around Medicine Bow, Shirley Basin maybe. That's the best place we've heard of on BLM I think. We may go up to Montana ,if we get permission, to shoot a friend's friend's place. And of course :D Once the .204 & 22-250 gets kicked around too much, "Blunderbus" is comi...

Looks like you all had a good time again Rick. The amount of squirrels on that 2 track is unreal. If you were where I think you were, my cousin and I saw 3 badgers in the same hole just down the road towards Crane 1/4 mile 2 weeks ago. Did anybody get any badgers? My dad and I are headed to Wyoming ...

Yeah it was fun meeting you too, nice to put a face with the name. Thanks.

Thanks. A mule deer is huge! :lol: That's a good point, I may have to turn it down it a little :D Bullfrog, I didn't know if it was big or small, they all look like ants at that range :lol: When we first started, 250 was a looong ways and we didn't even bother to look at 800, even with a spotting sc...

Alcoco : It is a Rem. 700 pillar bedded into a McM A-5 stock, OD green, with a Douglas .243 AI barrel screwed on. I have a Leupold VX-II 6-18 Target sitting on top. It is shooting an 87 Vmax at about 3340 fps. I have another load I'm going to try tomorrow that shows a lot of promise, but we will se...

My dad and I went out and shot some Memorial day rockchucks today. We stopped at our first spot with a close rim at 180 yards, a far rim at 400 yards across a resivour, and then some other rims around us 600-800 yards away. I missed one at 400 yards with my first, clean cold bore shot, then missed a...

Well, the next time you come through here my dad and I may be available. Let us know if you wanna meet up.
