Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Slumlord and Renegade..Let's do this..

Only Barnes bullet I have ever recovered.
Shoot em in my ot6
My ml also



Put a 70 yard sprint on this buck when he got behind a line of screening tree trunks.
One morning when me and slumlord were walking out and calling it a day.
He walked within 30 yds of my stand
I had already left 20 mins prior to go get slumlord and leave
Fughing cold in the low teens that morning with wind.

No see his eyes, no see me
Make a move, dont hesitate doing it.
Nothing to lose, everything to gain.
Got braced against a big ole tree
Waited for him to walk into the cross hairs
Put a high shoulder break down shot on him.
Smashed both blades, 2 vertebrae
Lodged under hide

Name of this .22 was.....

"Tree rat head shot black hole of gravity death machine"

Short version....
Lol!!!
Ocd as fugg about certain schitt.
Tree rat hunting head shots is one of em
Learn your hold over and under from 10 yds out to 75yds.
Do your range work.

Savage MKII bull barrel w/ sightron SI 3-9×40 scope
Hollow butt stock filled with 1 pd sinkers stuffed with wally world bags, balance carrying and weight for bench group shooting stabilty.
Limbsaver pad for longer lenght of pull issue only/ better gawt damm fit.

Shooting velocitors weight sorted shooting the 51.8 gr ones
Get about 30 35 of em outta a box of 50
Get a brick at least
Make sure your lot#s match
Some lot#,s are more accurate
Buy couple boxes of different lots #,s
Shoot em
Buy up the most accurate lot #


51.4 to 52.1 is the weight range for box of 50.

CCI makes good ammo.
Weighing out blazer will blow your mind also.

Dont beleive the hype about rimfire gauging .22 rounds
Every quarter turn will give you a different measurement based on rim thickness and the collet riding around a uneven ogive

Long bearing surface area and consistent weight rules.
Reason why you get nice 10 shot groups at 50 yds with flyers that blow your group out of the 6 7 or 8 that go into 1 ragged hole.
Is rounds off the 51.8 weight.
Cci blazer
Cci small game bullet
Mini mags

You can weigh these out on a digital scale and find the weight
That will give you 30 35 of em all exactly the same.

Take a magic marker put a dot in middle of plate.
Weigh each round exactly their each
Dont jar your plate dropping a round that last little tiny distance
Weights go up from low side to 51.8
Weights go down from high side to 51.8
Let em settle at 51.8 for 2 to 3 seconds
Make a quick cat like snatch and grab up with the round
Anything not in your majority weight group

Plinking ammo
Not zeroing ammo
Recal your scale every 15 to 20 rds.

If ya dont wanna do all this schitt
Go buy 15 to 20 + bucks a box high end .22 ammo.
And then pissed off about flyers still.
But not as many times.....

Sabre tooths?

He gets arbys at home 😃😂😂

Man I'd like to squirrel hunt with you, Rene. But, I prefer to back up against an oak, look for a moccasin curled up between the roots in early season and have a 12-15 min sit.

If I see something swinging the leaves a hundred yards way through the canopy I still sit and give any nearby a chance to die.

If nothing shows I try to neak toward it and neak up to a vertical trunk to take a rest for my Win 63 or Browning auto 22.

Early in the season before some leaves fall and if I hunt in the river bottoms with cat squirrels I go with a Benelli 20 with cheap low brass dove load 6s with the IM choke, as they rarely slow down in an open spot not covered by leaves to give a shot.

Do you have mostly greys of Fox squirrels? Man, I love young squirrels fried or older in rice, like rice and chicken, or pressure cooked a bit and the meat put in cornbread dressing.

Do you ever hunt them early in the season while they are still feeding on pine cone seeds. You sneak along watching for pine cone petals floating down and reflecting a bit of yellow from the morning sun.

You sneak in under it because there's too much veggies between you and it to get a shot. You get straight under the falling cone petals and looking up can only see a bit of fur each side of the branch above it is sitting on. A fine and pleasant misery.

Dude
Think about this
I have never been physically around you when you have shot a deer

And you have physically seen me shoot 3 or 4.


LOL!!!

I had actually thought about this a couple months ago. Treestand ponderings.

You were down in the creek bottom when I drilled that 450 marlin buck beside the log cabin

And you were in the next hollow over that afternoon I shot that buck 170 yard thru wall to wall hardwoods. It was the day after I did my afternoon dialysis

lol

How many can say they killed a deer 2 hours after a dialysis treatment??
You can tell my face was puffy after I went humpin it back 1/4” mile to get your truck, then I took your truck to go get my pathfinder, you stayed with my buck after dark to keep the Yotes off it.

Where u been? How’s the Boot?
