Tons of white, long winter and the Scenars that Scenar turned me onto are perking well in my lil 300 WSM. So, please post up pics of your victums via flight Scenar and help me relax a bit during this long butt winter. Gracias Perro

Have the Scenar's proven better than Bergers or is depending on rifle. I am sorry I don't have pics since I have never used the Scenar.
Also, Mark can I PM you about a non hunting/shooting subject concerning Bozeman?

Dober, I was thinking the exact same thing the other day, must be a long Winter....(grin)
Once it warms up there are a couple deer(currently frozen) that I wanna use for bullet test dummies. Gonna be a very simple test, shoot a 155 Scenar and 175 SMK into a shoulder at about 3000fps and see what happens. Poke the carcass with a stick and then feed the leaded up meat to some bald eagles......laughin'!

Almost loaded up a couple of Pat's 155's for a 100 yard Bambi test last Fall. Still haven't shot steel in over 4 months. Can't get out to any good safe spots and it's been cold, halfway afraid to shoot the 300WSM's when its cold, weakass scope might break again.....grin
Chilly couple days/nights ahead. They must calving down that way now, gonna be some cold babies hitting the ground, not good.

I know scenarshooter has posted many good pics on here I'm sure you've seen. But those were with the 308 at reasonably longer ranges if I read correctly. Not sure they would perform the same at 300 WSM velocities especially at closer ranges. Then again maybe they would be fine...

Yeah Pats used them a lot, Stick mentions them a lot just looking to see more dead animal pics from the guys. Long winter, need pics to think of spring bruins and such.

As someone who missed the last hunting season being away I can appreciate that there is no subject too trivial to think about when waiting for the next hunting season. I'll settle for any dead animal pics.

When I saw this thread I got excited thinking you were asking scenarshooter to post kill pics of his animals. His pics will NEVER get old!

Drum-dats exactly what I'm looking for is pics of dead animals via flight Scenar. Pats used it a ton I know, Big Stick talks about it a lot so I would guess he's used it a lot as well. Just bored and wanting to see more pics of dead critters..<g>

Mark, This is all I've been able to kill with them so far.... Scenarshooter's load out of my .308. Considering the huge investment I had in that gun, I was kinda a little proud of this group until I read (according to Swampman700 on the 308 hater thread) the 308 is no good and groups much better than this can be routinely shot out of Marlin lever guns. You might think about trading in those 155 Scenars on some 180 Corelocs...I hear that's where its at. It has been a tolerably long winter so far, but it can't last forever....

It won't last for ever bud, we'll be watching greening slopes via some good glass not too long from now. The 155's shot very well in my 300 WSM, think you're gonna likey that rig and you're more than welcome to beat the heck out of it come spring while persuin a bruin.
Lets try to catch up this weekend.

(side note 180 CL's they are the deadiest shroom in the woods right...)

Thinking Stick and Scenar have missed this thread. Hope they find it and start putting up some dead animal pics.
