    Hunting & Fishing Thursday evening on LKN

    Got home from work around 6pm and it was still hot as the dickins. My son said, "let's hit the lake." I hooked up the boat and we headed out. Went to our secret* hole and bang. Trolled across the channel and bang, bang. When we got to the west side of the channel I headed the boat north...

    Working the sticks

    Got out to my land on Sat, despite the wind, to spend some quality time with my boy. Can't think of a better way to spend a Saturday. I've set up a 500 yrd course with 10 steels from 150 to 500. We've got an A frame @100 for sighting and a tall target @ 300 for ladder testing. It's a...

    Range Report 6mm Shooters

    I'm shooting a 243AI with a 25" Hart 10 twist. I've tried lots of power and pill combinations and many shoot less than .5" 100yrd groups. My issue is that I've found a couple combinations that shoot 90g SCENARs .22" to .24" 5 shot groups @ 3080 to 3090fps. The best I've been able to get...

    Hunting & Fishing 3 Generations

    My dad comes up from LA for a visit every turkey and deer season. Since we had no good luck with the thunder chickens, I figured we should at least try to catch some fish together. While we didn't "load the gloo" with fish, it was great spending time on the water with the two of them.

    Hunting & Fishing Getting the kid on a bird.....

    It's been a couple years since I've been able to bring my boy turkey hunting, but tomorrow that gunna change. Youth day here in NC and we're going. I found that I get a much greater trill watching his reactions when a bird responds than I do killing one myself. He and I talked this one in for...

    Rifle Scopes Another Bushnell 4200 6x24 review

    Mounted it on my 700VLS 243ai. Also got those cool bolt knobs and epoxied them on both my 700's. Good clearance and they really help with cycling. Anyway, I set a new piece of steel @ 500 at my range. It's not fancy, but I get to make the rules. 3 shots had me zeroed and I thought, dial it...

    Hunting & Fishing Backyard coyotes

    I though I saw one right at dusk a week ago slippin between the swingset and trampoline. I put a trailcam in the backyard and got these guys the other night. Good looking dogs, but they gotta die. Need some recommendations on baiting in the neighborhood. What it looks like in the daytime.

    243 AI Is it worth the time?

    I had a 700 VLS tuned up by a local gunsmith who put a Hart 5 grove 10 twist and a Bushnell 6500 mil dot. My fireforming loads were lite and pushing 85g Sierra boattails. They shot inside 1 MOA @ 200, I was impressed. I tried 87vmax, 90 Siroccos, 95 SST, and 105amax with a variety of...
