Are you gonna shoot a pig with that .300 RUM?

Not unless I get put in a stand 500 yards from the feeder

An acquaintance recently bagged a 160 pound buck at 88 yards. It was a good thing he had his 300 RUM topped with a 5.5-16x Nikon scope.

The idea for the RUM arose when watching a big aoudad, 500+ yards away, watching me, and a strong gusting crosswind between us. I think he was smiling at me.

And it is something different than my .300 Weatherby

Since the pigs in March will be eating size, I'm thinking .38-55 Ruger, and/or .300 Savage M1920. Maybe a M99 takedown in the same caliber. And probably a Kimber 7mm-08 in case it's raining.

Heck, maybe a crossbow, too

I wonderd when the 'culture club would show up, had that thought at medium well, I have a nose like a penitentiary bloodhound.

Warm/hot red raw meat smells like chit, blood in my plate is for fuggin vampires, you guys have a nice hunt this spring.

If there's blood on the plate then the steak is too rare (yes there is such a thing) and/or was not properly rested before cutting into it.

You have such a hard time expressing yourself...


Chill out. We will cook your meat to your liking or even put beans in your chili ( I personally won't, but I'll get somebody else to...) but your attendance at the hunt is required.

yes daddy REQUIRED

I'll bring my Sharps if Gunner comes...
