Bravo.
When I buy a rifle to put under my orphan SS 10x it will be the 6mm Creedmoor. I am skipping the 6.5.

36" of white stuff....a few seasons back. My pack with my gear and rifle weighs 35lbs. I'm trying to get it a little lighter every year.

Those are some damn nice dogs....
Ping pong balls for the win. Once you've wrestled everything else in life is easy. Dan Gable I keep my circle small, I’d rather have 4 quarters than 100 pennies.
Ain’t easy havin pals.

That folding stock doesn't seem to be hurting the accuracy any. Do you hump that outfit around in a backpack on snowshoes? I do, or have quite a bit in the past....getting a little tougher every year.... I'm toting a shorter, lighter rig in my pack this winter, and I'm kinda liking it...;) Great picture of the dogs Would you like to share the details of your lighter carrying rig.

Those look like late season coyotes that have sun bleached fur. They get really pale up high around here too.

Pat, nice shooting. I love those 105 hybrids, great accuracy,slice thru a crosswind, and absolutely kill the critters.

Brad,
Unless you've spent a few winters living in the northeastern corner of Montana, you don't realize it's above the Arctic Circle....

Brad,
Unless you've spent a few winters living in the northeastern corner of Montana, you don't realize it's above the Arctic Circle.... Mule Deer; Good evening to you John, I hope that this first Sunday of 2020 finds you and Eileen well. As mentioned previously, I grew up on the eastern side of Saskatchewan, nearly into Manitoba and roughly a third of the way up. Anyway John, as such I can state that it's been scientifically proven that when the north wind starts to blow southward from Fort St. John or Grande Prairie, the 3 dozen trees between there and Bismark and Sioux Falls don't impede it's velocity appreciably, thus making for the Arctic Circle conditions in between. So it is that Wolf Point, Scobey or for that matter Maple Creek and Assiniboia get the balmy weather we all grew to know and love... When I tell my kids folks used to freeze to death going home from church or curling back when, they just look at me and shiver. All the best to you and Eilieen in 2020. Dwayne PS: Those are dandy white coyotes that Pat has for sure. We don't see them that color or size here.

Have you used those Bergers on deer or elk? I’ll bet that setup is fantastic in that windy, open country! I really need to call GA Precision one of these days. Definitely a bucket list rifle to me.

Always nice to mount the scope back on the picatinny, and have the point of impact the same as the wore out barrel...no re zero needed on this new barrel.
Dang, that's almost like cheatin"

Must be brutal! That is a beautiful rig and I’m green with envy.
