new personal record!

[Bender]

650yd song dog in 15mph full value wind! From the window of my Jeep! Took 3 shots. I don’t have a rangefinder so I guessed, I was about a mil low and needed to add more hold for wind. Second shot elevation was perfect but not quite enough wind hold, So I adjusted again and sent the third one and watched him fall over an absolute amazement! Lol

The XJ cockpit is kinda cramped, but that window does make a good perch for a rifle.

 

[pmclaine]

Cant imagine the joy of living in a place where the world around you is nothing but rifle range.

No, Wyoming sucks. There is nothing fun out here. And we hate guns.

 

[RTH1800]

Bender, Ks is exactly like that as well.
Kidding.
If we get one new easterner I vote PMClaine! He is a good guy just geographically misplaced.

 

[MtnCreek]

What is that critter? Around here a song dog is a yote.

 

[RTH1800]

I think it is a PD. Around here, coyotes don't let you get 3 shots unless two of them are full speed.

Nice shooting! I'm just an hour north of Cheyenne and have been working on a RPR project and a 1760 yard range on BLM land with some prairie dogs. My goal is to have a 1000 yard pd by this time next year. I'll have to get you up here sometime.

Where are you at? I was just an hour north of Cheyenne LOL. I was about 8 miles south of Wheatland on a state section.

Wife would never leave the ocean and truth be told looking out at vast expanses of water mesemerizes me as much as vast expanses of prairie.

Maybe Ill luck out and we can treat Great Whites like prairie dogs soon.

You've never been to Chicago ?

Yep! I know some of the wheat farmers out that way and did some shooting years ago east of I-25. Wheatland is where I live. I'll try to train myself on how to use the private message function and send you my contact info.

Hey! Can I go back? Lived 9 years in Wichita and hated the citiots around me.

Happiest hunting ducks in my little private pond near Augusta or deer in the WIHAs in the southwest.

Are those rope burns on the body???

Didn’t you see Wind River?

 

[Wheedle]

What did you shoot it with? I'd love to get out that way for some long range rodent slaying, But I feel .300WinMag and .308 is a little much, and a bit spendy.

 

[ken4570tc in WY]

Bender,
I sent you a personal message with my contact info. Sounds like you were somewhere south of Hwy 34 or near Bordeaux.

 

[Alphatreedog]

Nice shootin Bender . How many pidgeons did you kill ??

 

[Badfinger]

Are those rope burns on the body???

Hmm, look more like tire marks

 

[pmclaine]

Didn’t you see Wind River?

No.

Hope its not like Brokeback Mountain.

I may change my mind about that AO.

No way do I believe Laramie or the Cheyenne areas ever get 15 mph winds.. I think you are pulling a fast one.


Wait, I mean no way is it ever that calm- lol

Good shooting

.223 55bt. With a rem 700 tactical 20” 1:9 with a lane scorpion king can

 

[Pappakap]

Congratulations, I always feel encouraged when I see other people have that type of success without running a $10,000 rig.

 

[Bender]

Oh. Fixed 10x SWFA for a scope.

Your shot reminds me of my personal favorite sage rat shot that was a big curve ball at 648yds 15 years ago. Held about 24" elevation and 36" of wind with a .223, one windage shot ,2nd kill. It was so rewarding at the time..... still is.

 

[Jefe's Dope]

in 15mph full value wind!

In other words, another typical day in Wyoming.
