Me and the gear hit the trail.

With the strange weather this year I have been able to hunt later in the season. I have invested in some new snake chaps and am walking with new confidence through the grass covered hills around here. Here is some handy work of the 17 HMR at about 175 yrds. http://i138.photobucket.com/albums/q264/rs...

It has been very breezy down here is So Cal also it does add a challenge to the shooting. My battery was dead on my wind gage when I showed up to the fields Oh well I lived with out one for years.

No just one of the local inthusist. I had seen some other ingenous rigs but didn't get there photo's one had jacks he let down to steady the rig. This guy also had jacks for his out fit. He also had a partner with a table some what like his.

This is a picture of the crew we slew a great many squirrels. My one eyed dad on the right did just fine. He should have that eye back working soon it didn't slow him down a bit.

Here is a picture of an avid squirrel getter that I met on my trip I had to get his picture.

The wind blew cold this year on my trip almost the whole week but the shooting was still good. I did manage to get out and get a few rock chucks all though some of the shots where hard to make with a 25 mile an hour cross wind I must of burned a hundred rounds to get three chucks at three hundred ya...

I made sure the tang was very tight and even filled the piller with epoxy. Since then I have taken the epoxy out of the piller rebedded the...

What do you use to get those great pictures? Are they off a video camera?

Look like coyote. Good job! a 22-250 is a great gun for what your doing. Sorry about the problem getting rifles there. A 32gr bullet in a 20 cal would be a nice choice for the little dogs but you seem to be doing good with what you got. Thanks for sharing

Great pictures looks like a good adventure with the boys New Jersey looks like a great place to hunt.

I have been having problems with all bullets on my heavy rifle that I just changed the trigger out on I deciced it was the action bedding and have had the rifle apart numerus times to rebed the laminated thing. I have finely given up due to time constrants and ordered a new Hoque stock with the alum...
