Met a few hunters last night at the Deer Lake Motel going here and there. We arrived today at CAMP 8. Conne River has been under new ownership. Robert Hanson is a hands on type of guy doing what he has to do to keep things going in the right direction. Camp is really nice, main camp and couple of camps for hunters as well. Dinner was excellent, pot roast, gravy, masked potatoes, corn and mashed turnips.
Our fridge is full of soft drink.
We took a few shots with our rifles and all of us were still righ on. I bought that new SAKO S20 .30-06 and i was inch off the bullseye at 112 yards leaning on the guide’s ATV with a shirt as a rest. I’m shooting 1” group at 200 yards from a bench 150 grain bullets. Very pleased. Guns a little heavy but i can deal with that. Thumb hole stock works well for me.
First impressions today is A+.
Hunt starts tomorrow. To be continued.
