Quite the death toll you have lol. Is that an aftermarket trigger on that ruger?

The herd came thundering across the prairie to see what the noise was about. They kinda ruined any further action......

Pesky bovines. They've buggered up more than one shoot for me too there, Don, so don't feel left out. Looks like Skippy paid a high price anyway before they arrived. Also looks like that little 17HH is stealing all the glory from your other rifles left in the safe.....heard any whining from inside yet? :lol:

the Fireball is overkill for stripers, so as soon as I put her back, the hornet came out for another walkabout...
