Your " Win at any cost" mentality is leading you to be delusional. There is only one delusional person making the rules here, and it is ME!  You have obviously misunderstood, I am not playing to win at all cost. By the way, you know where I live and I leave the keys in the car and the Triumph in case you ever want to take it for a spin... ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/eTaAe0F.jpg)

Who in the hell decided to let Professor Gwe be the judge and jury in this anyhow? It used to be a joint effort between me and JB..but he wisely turned the reins over to me.  No one has more experience shooting dinks! Its a curse more than a blessing......

Went out looking for freezer meat last evening. Walked up on two does and a nice yearling. I shot the delicious one with my wore out 25/35. 1894. First snap misfired. Second try did trick. Think I'll back off on that mainspring tensioner. New mainspring installed. Give a bit more umph! Shot fine at range. But they always do!
Sorry no photo evidence. Just one word, veal!!!! Very Dink worthy. Just a non contestant.

Too bad Bob!
Glad you got a freezer pleaser with the old school rifle...but the status and prestige that go along with winning the Dinkathon cannot be underestimated...

Thanks fellas! I really like that little cartridge. When i got home i got into the old war horse and appears weve got a bit of an headspace issue. So we'll just keep her as a special occassion rifle. Shame as damn bullet went (eventually) right where i aimed. And its easy to carry!!
Off to deep south Texas Friday. Who knows what we'll see!!!

Shrapnel uses his .25-35 for grizzlies...
Chuck Norris uses a .30-30.....

That's because Shrapnel taught Chuck Norris everything he knows about shooting!

Ingwe:
You and the Dinkathon have become a topic at our deer camp. Angus, #3 son, came in from the field and said he was sorely tempted when the buck with 1 inch antlers came out on the Opener. However, shortly after that a nice 10 pointer came out, and kicked his butt out of the field. In retribution, my son shot the 10 pointer.
Sigh!
We have all our buck tags filled here at camp. We took the last one in at 6 PM tonight. Another year has come and gone with nothing to show for it.

Sorry to hear about the 10 pointer but thank your son for not entering it..too many guys post pics of these monster bucks...completely missing the point and spirit of the Dinkathon.
However....if your son is old enough to buy whiskey the Judge may be able to be coerced into a larger than normal submission....

I don't get all the people using smokeless powder to kill dinks. What would Jim Bridger say.... This morning's entry. 50 caliber blackpowder, roundball. Killing deer since the founding of this country. ![[Linked Image]](https://s6.postimg.org/kyl9ryo01/IMG_1329.jpg)
