Got the draw results letter. I get to go hunting :-)

Dino in Reno (Nevada)

Ahh, surely there is at least one more Nevada draw winner here.
And I know, "Don't call me Shirley"...

And now to add to the post count, 25-06 or .270? :-)
It's a joke, I'm going with a 1954 M70 in .270. Anyone have an El Paso Weaver K6 with the post and crosshair you don't need so I can finish off the rifle?


Dino in Reno

But where?

I got 10 Late and a El Paso 6X (fine CH).

I'm heading out east of Denio again. I like that area. It's real Nevada. High Desert, big open land.
I am holding out for a 6x Weaver post and crosshair. In fact, if that exact reticle was availabe I would by a brand L, S&B, Z, or N in a fixed 6x but it is not. Some are close, but just not the same.
I have a 4X with it and it seems just fine in field use to me.

That's one of my jackrabbit areas. Never done deer there. G'luck.

Thanks.
I like the way the basin and range lands look. You find springs, creeks, and wells in the oddest spots.

"wells in the oddest spots" can cause sudden disappearances.

Macrabbit, For that we have a century and a half of mines... In fact there is a death from falling into these every year or two. Watch for them if you are in a new to you area folks. Following an old trail on a bike or ATV can bring right up on (in) one.

Gives new meaning to "claim jumping".
