Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunting Rifles Help: Ammo won't chamber!! (but brass will...)

Just like any sport, the better you get, the more you need to challenge yourself. If you don't have the desire to shoot distance, then you probably aren't much of a rifleman.

Ya' that's the ticket..........





ain't got a big loop turdy-turdy

and don't care much for shooting long distance.

and here after owning a couple hundred long guns and killing thousands of critters in the last 55 years I find out I don't qualify as a rifleman. LOL

One could almost get depressed.




on the run at +/- 15 paces.





on the run at +/- 30 yds.





a double, on the run between +/- 40 and 60 yds.



on the run, off rest, +/-125 yds



a two-fer at +/- 175 yds.

guess I'll have to be satisfied being a short range meat hunter.

Oh well, maybe when I grow up. LOL


JASRMHFT,

G, I feel your 'pain'....


This was about 1/2 hour ago.


Tried out a new piece, 7 or 8 paces.

Feel the Thunder!





8 or 9 pace laser tag.




Total pistola rookie but they are fun. Not as fun as rifles of course but...


If it's nice tomorrow afternoon we might drive up the road a little ways and blast some clays out in a stubble field.

Variety is the spice of life!

Now 'geedubya' don't ya know that shootin game on the run is 'Unethical'?

Now OTOH - if YOU are runnin while shootin...well that's different.

Jerry...

The farthest I practice is 250 yards. The farthest I've killed is 300. I may not qualify as I rifleman but don't ever bet against me on a running shot under a hundred yards. I can do some things to a buck exploding from cover that most tactical marksman can't dream of.

don't tell anybody, I wouldn't want them to think I was a stunt-shooter, but the critters were mostly runnin'. I was stayin' in practice by going the other way, riding my ATV, rifle over my left shoulder(Righty on the trigger), looking through a handlebar mounted mirror. I'm usually 9 out of 10 at less than 75 yds.

No pix of blastin' walkin' catfish on the walk.



These were sqattin' and hidin' in the brush when I shot em'

Ya'

Posting pics of texas pigs is like posting a pic of a mouse I killed in the garage.

Shot it at long distance of 110 yds. Featherweight 7x57,160 gr Sierra GK and an ol' Weaver 4x.

It wasn't in windage adjustable mounts was it?

Nope,even worse Talley Lightweights.

And you have these long range pictures to prove your obvious level in rifle superiority..

Elkhunternm, did you wipe the milk off his lips?

Nope.

ya'

they are indeed vermin'


and they're the best tasting bullet test media I've found. Plus I can kill as many as I want 24/7/366 (In leap years).


Anywho,

opinions are like noses, everyone has one and most of them smell.




10 yds.



+/- 50 yds.





+/- 90 yds.





+/100 yds.





+/- 120 yds.



+/- 140 yds.

(all killed with a rifle) Hint!

GWB

This grandson already shoots, but don't let him run with a pistola yet.

Myself I'm a Glock guy!

GWB

You're stupid.

The guy down the road has some pigs fenced in. Maybe he will let me shoot one so I can pretend I'm in Texas. Pics sure to follow!

How' bout some called in varmints and TOO's (targets of opportunity)



grey called in under 30 yds.



nailed with a Cooper M38, 22 hornet



I do luv me some single shots. Don't miss and one does not need a repeater.
