Years ago we only had an International Travelall. We shot two elk, dragged them down the mountain whole and winched them diagonally into the Travelall with a come-along. Of course we drove around West Yellowstone with them hanging out until they spoiled... ![[Linked Image]](http://i235.photobucket.com/albums/ee202/bridgershooters/Elk/elkintravelall.jpg)

Keeping with the dog/truck theme: ![[Linked Image]](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c206/cfpinz/IMG_20130401_171209_zps511750b9.jpg) Keepin' it cool: ![[Linked Image]](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c206/cfpinz/IMG_20130821_173829_zps6ee97624.jpg) Hasn't left my side since I've been home from the hospital, it's a dog's life: ![[Linked Image]](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c206/cfpinz/IMG_20131116_213936_zps103bbd1a.jpg) This one's for Huntsman, I need a hair dryer as much as you do! And as an aside, don't ever get in a head butting contest with a cow: ![[Linked Image]](http://i28.photobucket.com/albums/c206/cfpinz/IMG_20130812_203925_zpsfea8c85b.jpg)

Thanks CFVA, I was never afraid of cows before, that is a little too western. Now I know the real reason for a truck gun is not just recreational.

I'll play, if I can get the image to post. Ruger 16 inch "Patrol Rifle" (basically a stainless mini 14 with 16" barrel and FS, 1x3 scope, and Lucid Snap Rack. I also have a nice DuHa under seat rack that will store 4 rifles under the rear seats of the truck. ![[Linked Image]](http://i736.photobucket.com/albums/xx2/K1500_sawdust/image_zpsb76fb1d5.jpg)

mike r They're nothing to be afraid of, every time I've been hurt by one it's been my own fault. The only time I take my rifle out of the truck is when we pen/vaccinate cattle, so my temper won't get the better of me and whack one. I've caught myself walking to the house a few times to get a gun, but that walk gives me enough time to cool off and realize how much money I'd be losing if I shot the bitch rather than sold it.

If he wasn't worth 1.30 lb right now ,there's a Black whiteface in the barn right now I would get some satisfaction doing that.
He really tucked them legs in quick now, didn't he?

Hope the heeler got some of the scraps, he looks malnourished!
Neighbor had a bull that kept getting in with my cows a few years back, and the owner wouldn't take any responsibility for him - plus he was a smartass. Ever seen an 1800lb bull clamped? Funny thing, the bull never came back after that...

I replace valve cover gaskets every 50K, if they don't need them sooner...

Cost cutter rifles come to mind for a truck gun, the ruger American would probably be the one for me.

Cull pen and a trip to town. Damn, you took one to the noggin! That dog is sweet, great pics.
