    2023 - 2024 Predator Season

    I had a pretty good season, so it's only fitting that the last weekend was wrought with F up's. First with the crappy windy weather blowing Friday Pm out the door. Then me missing a broadside chip shot at 50 yards and having a feeding issue Sat PM. Then having my buddy drop a dog only for it...

    2023 - 2024 Predator Season

    It was an old injury that was covered with hair. Never saw this dog before. I'm guessing it was a straggler that normally wouldn't have been going into another males territory, but wasn't afraid since we killed most of it's competition. That's the 10th male coyote taken on this property since...

    2023 - 2024 Predator Season

    I had better luck taking down a three legged male dog. Saw this one going down a fence line in an adjoining field as we were getting to our first stand location. When the wind started to shift, he took his last breath.

    2023 - 2024 Predator Season

    Dropped this one at 180 yards with the backup RIX L3/20-250. The ocular zoom feature and the laser 20-250 made it an easy shot.

    2023 - 2024 Predator Season

    It's fun hunting at night and is also a good security option, you should try it. Rix L3 scope and an AGM TM15-384 spotter will get you to the edge of the thermal black hole for under $3.5k. SJC

    2023 - 2024 Predator Season

    Dog 3 was from a pair that came to a spot 170 yards away before the wind shifted. My buddy nailed it with the 22-250 Impulse. He didn't see the second dog run up the hill, so I took a half assed shot before it disappeared into the woods.

    Small male. 22-250 first hit and finished it with the 20-250. Last kill with the backup Adder scope before it was sent to a friends home.

    2023 - 2024 Predator Season

    Here's the video I took with my X50. We alternate being the shooter after each coyote kill. Two dogs came in but the dog in the woods on the left disappeared and my buddy who was sitting couldn't see the dog coming in through the tall corn stalks, so I had to let him know or he would've tried to...

    Another one down. January started off fast and furious, but has died down considerably. Don't know if hunting is the cause or their just getting better at avoiding us.

    Started 2024 on two new farms. The first farm we took down 3 coyote. This is a video of the second dog we took down that was scenting the trail of the first dog my buddy shot a half hour before. While we were exiting the second farm I spotted what I thought was a coyote on the road. After...

    Decided to end the year on a bang coyote hunting, but the coyote had different plans so I dropped this fox at 20 steps with a 70 gr Nosler BT out of my Enhanced .243 Impulse. My Buddy filmed it with his new Thermion scope. Not pretty. Fox Explosion

    2023 Deer season

    Dropped this small 8 point opening day Am @ 315 yards with the Blaser R8 in 300 WSM. Had bigger bucks on camera, but I've been bitten in the behind with letting bucks pass in hopes of bigger bucks appearing. The freezer was empty, so down it went.

    2023 - 2024 Predator Season

    Small male down with my friends newly Re barreled Savage Impulse Predator 22-250 topped with a spanking new Pulsar Thermion XP50 2 Pro LRF. Made for long range shooting, but he ended up dropping it at 20 yards on the road as we were walking into our first stand location of the night.

    Predator light recommendation

    I would suggest a Wraith scope because it can be used day or night, but these lights are the best out there for the money. https://sniperhoglights.com/gun-mounted-lights/

    2023 - 2024 Predator Season

    Ended my week off coyote hunting by taking down one of the dogs that we think chased the landowner last week while he was checking trail cameras and walking his dog's. Two dogs were flanking us while we were walking through the woods, but they closed the gap quickly after we entered a field they...

    Double down Sat Pm. 40lb Male and 31lb female. Spotted and called them in from over 400 yards away. I dropped the female first and then my buddy dropped the male after I ran out of ammo. I spotted it in the woods for him after I stopped recording. Looks like I hit it in the foot with my last...

    Predator hunting advice?

    SCR worked for me. My upper is chambered in 35 Gunner, but .223/556 will drop them no problem. Your set up for navigating and spotting, so If the funds are available I recommend getting a dedicated thermal scope for the rifle. This thread should probably be in another section.

    Remember these prices ?

    I was helping my uncle clean out a closet yesterday and we came across a small box filled with .22lr ammo. It's been there a long time. $ .84 cents from an E.J Korvettes store that he worked part time at in the early 70's.

    Found some old 12GA..

    I've fired good conditioned paper hulled shells that were used to train WWII gunners without issue. "Good conditioned" being a key factor before even contemplating on firing them. If the shells are in good shape, you shouldn't have an issue. I would fire them singularly if using a semi auto...

    What do you use to clean brass?

    I clean brass with untreated corn cobb media for an 1/2 hour, empty that media and them then add some Dillon polish treated media and run it for an hour. Been doing it that way for decades and while other methods might get brass as clean as surgical instruments, I don't want to mess with water...

    getting back into reloading

    In my 40 plus years of loading everything from the 20 practical to the 50Bmg, I've never bent a die, even when I had to use a 4 foot crowbar on my Lee 50 Bmg press to extract a stuck once fired under lubed case. I cracked the shell holder in the process and Lee sent me one for free. Being I've...

    West vs BRICS

    Is it too far fetched to think that Putin with Chinas backing encroached on Ukraine and are stalling the invasion with the intent of draining the US economy and the military's resources knowing that the Biden's/Dem's are heavily invested in Ukraine ? This is a chess game and Biden's playing...

    getting back into reloading

    I had one, but I load while sitting in a chair and the high top positioned handle isn't conducive for that, plus the priming system has a lot to be desired IMHO. Forget about loading pistol rounds with it. I sold it to a friend who loads a lot of magnum rifle cartridges and that press has more...

    getting back into reloading

    All presses have wiggle, it's the quality of the die that makes the real difference. When I used to shoot a lot of rifle matches with my 30.06, 308 and 260 , I used a Dillon 550 press with Wilson and other match die and it loaded them just as concentric as a single stage press. While a single...

You guys/gals or anyone that self identifies as something here are...

    getting back into reloading

    I've taught a lot of people how to reload ammo with my Lee single stage presses over the last 30+ years. If you want to load for several different calibers, the Breech lock feature is as good as it gets and light years ahead of the old style screw in presses. Spending more on a single stage...

    My season ended with empty brass in hand and two dogs that while alive, they needed to clean their britches in a creek afterwards. Weather sucked and I didn't see a dog in range till Sunday after 11 Pm. Ended up missing that dog and another one that was a gimme broadside shot within 150 yards at...

    Birthday rifle for my brother - suggestions wanted

    I know all about ballistics and the 100 fps added to a pistol cartridge in a carbine is still pistol cartridge velocity. I agree, they should include a possibles bag with a pair of lead balls with each pistol caliber rifle. Those rifles do have some use though, such as training children the...
