Wish Me Luck!

Post by 20-250ai »

Got a call form a guy in a ranch I stop in at and asked permition to hunt two months ago. Seams he's lost a calf or two since and fond the number I left him "Just in case he needed some help". 8) So tommarow John and myself are headed to a new 12,000 acer ranch in seach of a few song dogs. The ranch is in the low foothills of the Bayarea Calif. and streches over some very unique land, Some rolling hills, a steep gorge, large lake flat and steep rocky high land, patches of heavy oak openning up on grazing land. Should be a blast. Hasn't been hunted for years!!! ;)

I'm going to take the .204 CZ varmint and the 20-250ai Ruger#1 and with any luck they'll get a workout.

I'll post some pic's, it's one of the most beautiful places I've laid eyes on.

John got this one with his savage at 165yards.

I mist a easy broadside shoot at 175yards. Picture perfect stand, sun to our backs and bang nothing but dirt. Shot went high over his shoulder by at least 6in. Kinda took the wind from my sails :oops: After that I let John do the shooting I just called for him.

After eight hours of hiking we decided to take a few squirrels. Come to find out that the scope must have got hit. So I brock out the CZ Ultra Lux in 22LR and finnished out the day with 93 ground squirrels out of 100 shots fired. Longest kill was no more thet 65 yards, most within 40.

Anyway, we had a blast, but most importantly were invited back any time we like. :mrgreen:
