Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire UPDATE - Shrapnel

He was in all the pictures so yeah I guess I'm gonna be that guy.

Pretending he did it with a iron sight lever gun is lame when he used a scoped bolt gun with a bipod.

Still a great bull but why lie?

This bear was shot with a scoped .284, but that's a iron sighted 38-55 in the photo.





The reason is I shot the bear from the top of the canyon and watched him die (also heard his death moan which sucked btw). I went back to the truck for a packframe and the 38-55 is easier to carry down the canyon than the scoped 284, and I weren't going down there with no rifle.

Cheers, lame loser

This could be a concern for Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks, one tag, two bulls. One shot with a bolt action rifle and one shot with a lever action.

LOL.

It's the same very nice bull.

It's also lame.

Just Sayin.

You two snuggling for the win?

Cum dumpster joins the convo...

Some of that would be incorrect. Moose here, in the North, are open in some regions for any bull from August 23-August 31. Then it switches to 2 point/tripalm/10 point. A 2 point used to be called an "immature bull" but that changed years ago to "two point bull". A two point bull has to have one antler with 2 tines or less on it. Seems pretty straight forward, no? As long as the tines are at least an inch long, and longer than they are wide. A two point bull could be comprised of a bull that has 9 tines with 2 brow tines or less on one side and 2 tines or less on the other. Or a big bull that broke his main beam off before it split, and that main beam is only a beam that is longer than it is wide and doesn't have more than 2 tines. Or a young bull that is just in his first rack, as long as one side only has 2 tines or less. That was the reason that the name changed from "immature bull" to "two point bull". The age of the bull is immaterial and all that counts is that he has one side with 2 tines or less. The BC regs spell out what makes up a tine pretty clearly, and a big bull that has fought hard can lose most of a side and technically meet the definition of a two point bull. Tripalm/10 point are what they sound like, either a minimum of three brow tines below the narrowest point of the antler, or more than 10 total tines on one antler. As long as they are at least an inch long, and longer than they are wide.(Same tine definition for all ungulates province wide.)

Former 24 HR poster drew trophy moose tag in Montana.

Killed very nice bull 15 yds from road using a bolt action sporting a high powered variable optic and a bipod.



It all seem like a winner doing winning things.

Then he claims he did the deed with an iron sighted Winchester lever gun?

WTF?

That is better...I cannot believe I didn't have that burns prick on ignore.

Junior detective with marvelous tan makes a fuss because guy with big moose took photos with different rifles.

WTF, over?

Don't waste your time on the prick...just relegate him to ignore and have a better day.

I am not surprised some one with your limited skill set sees nothing wrong with maximizing a photo op by switching rifles and pretending one used a less capable rifle.

Possibly others view this as dishonest because bolt actions with high power variables and bipods are a bit of an advantage compared to iron sighted lever guns.

It's a great bull, why lie?

It's still creepy you think my tan is "marvelous".

Slow your roll but:

It's not your bull, why do you care so deeply?

Earlier you criticized him for shooting a bull 15 yards from the road, do you really think he'd need a scoped rifle on a bipod to do that?

Or a better question, do you really think it's any of your business what he shot it with? Ask yourself why you're so concerned with other people's business.

Maybe he shot it with both rifles?

Or a Buzz Lightyear Ray Gun?
