Pretty cool dead head I found. We only had a few pictures of him each season, but he didn't look that big in any of the pictures we had! Scored him just over 150! Shame to find for sure, but glad to pick him up before any rodents ate on him!
Got some good news on the camera today my main target but showed back up! He's been MIA since Nov 28th! Can't wait to see what he looks like next year!
You got to know the drop 1st! Haha
And ya my cousin and uncle do a lot of competition shooting out to 1000yds all summer I ask them drop info and I just get an answer in mils 🤣. and so I'm gunna go with them and play with one of mine and see how it does!
Decided to test my #s I shot during the summer on the drop of my savage 220 today.
These were the real life #s out of my gun with accutips.
200 yds with 3" about 13" drop
250yds. 3". 20" drop
200yds with 2 3/4. 20" drop
250yds with 2 3/4 30" drop
I took a shot at a coyote at 250yds today. (He was quartering away) Knowing it was going to drop 20" aimed high about a foot over the top of his head height figuring head is maybe 6", so I let er eat and smoked him.
Yupp... It's an a/r 10. So u really have to chuck it shut which I have been trying to do when I use it.. but got screwed today for sure. Got to break out the bolt action for my rifle spots for rest of the season. So frustrating 😞
Well, had a nice broadside shot at 70yds on the buck I saw yesterday coming out of the thicket he tried to go into last night.haf a few does pass thru earlier and was giving it till 930 then I said screw it staying till 10 and he came out at 935... 😡. Gun definitely didn't chamber correctly.. if I was a quieter i would throw in the towel now.
Can't catch a lucky break here during gun! Passed up a.few more small bucks, some ffawns and does. Did pass up a decent buck Tuesday morning (I'll add pic). And tonight almost got a crack at a good one but he came out on this little trail I was watching literally the same minute I got settled into my spot on the ground and he came out 30yds from me 😡😡. I needed 1 more minute! And I would of been set n ready! Ughh the chase continues.
