At least you got one. I did get to spend a couple of days in the woods with my favorite rifle though. I heard an elk bugle from the Cache Creek but not even a doe was to be seen. I can't wait for this get together and a chance to get some pigs.

This will be my first pig hunt. Have several new to me rifles that need to become proven killers. . A Springer .30-06, a Savage 99 in .300 Sav. Saw someone bringing a muzzleloader that should be good to 200 yds. Also have an XP-100 in .250 Ackley which a) is hard to shoot in the field, and b) might be a bit light, although I've seen that a .270 can kill a pig. ;-)
I'm looking forward to meeting this Becky everyone is talking about. I really hope she is as easy as everyone says she is!
Fred Fred most shots will be under 100 yds. We have killed a lot of hogs on these hunts with .223's so the .250 AI pistol will work good. The blinds are hard sided so it will be easy to get a solid rest for the XP. Ill bring my Savage 99 in .250-3000 open sights.
I've always been different with one foot over the line.....

Been digging through my shelves and found three boxes of 35 Whelen handloads from years past. One using the 250 gr Partition (south Texas nilgai 1999), another with the 250 gr Speer (two Alberta black bear 2005) and the most recent with the 225 gr TSX (NE BC elk and moose 2008). I am thinking I may bring the Speer load. This, an EdM tweaked M77 RS, will be my chitty weather rifle.
Conduct is the best proof of character.

Thanks 7. That means three rifles, the xp, shotgun, fishing rod. . Good thing I have a truck!
Question for the group.: wife wants to come down, but will has no desire to participate with this group. . How does she know this never having been on the fire? If she goes to what she calls the civilized world while the rest of us are makin bacon, will I be handicapped not having a vehicle? She swears she will pick me up after the hunt. .

Fred No vehicles needed. They drive you to and from the stand. No need to leave we have everything we need. Food, drinks, hogs and Bobby "RockChucker for entertainment"

Fred My wife and children came last year. They/we stayed in the Hampton Inn in Carrizo Springs about 12 miles south of the ranch. It took me less than twenty minutes to get out the door and show up at the ranch. Due to the oil bust the rooms were reasonable. I think only two other rooms were being rented. I would start checking for rooms now though. Tracy

Becky is indeed pretty easy. I'll try to bring Hyedi - she is a bit more complex and mercurial
