Heres the second night....these all came off a 650 acre ranchette...I'd say they had a fox problem...they sure weren't overrun with rabbits or quail...

SW/central Texas baby!

We've killed 40 greys within 100 yards of my parents house this past year between me and my bros (mostly bros but I killed a triple)...lmao...😅.

They live on 20 acres....

Texas and fox my friend as you know don't get much better. Beautiful haul of greys BTW. Them things at times are hard to kill. They hold still for half a second at a time and are about 6" tall ...grin ..

The 17 still blows holes if the hit isn't perfect.

No sir, it is the 77/17 Hornet. But with the green lam stock, it looks like the RHP. I do have a Hawkeye Predator in 6.5 creed, and it's a dandy. I don't have the pred in 204, but do have the VT and an ultralite in 204. My advice is to grab it, as it has the same great 2-stage trigger as the VT and the mag barrel contour is lighter than the bull and the sporter stock don't have that crappy beavertail. A whole lot easier to pack around and hunt with......

I hated the fat, clunky, beavertailed abortion of a stock that came on the VT. So, I swapped it out for a walnut sporter. Now it feels more like the predator...
