Rio, you must have a dead critter grave yard that is huge. I could bury one occasionally, but you stack them up every day!
My other auto is a .45
The bitterness of poor quality is remembered long after the sweetness of low price has faded from memory

Ripsnort, My Ruger .22 is beat up from riding in my Jeep for over 25 years, it quit shooting last year?? Kaywoodie and Ed to many letters, tore it down and did their magic on it and got it running again, It's killed a couple of dump truck loads of critters over the years,and still shoots better than I can if I use good Ammo. been thinking about buying a new one but don't know why??

No pic as I didn't carry my phone this morning. 1 sow coon came to the call.
10 gauge Federal Premium #5 did the trick.

BPS.
Got it for HS graduation. Gave it to my buddies boy last year. I killed a little bit of everything with it in 29 years I had it.
Killed a lot of turkeys with it that could have been shot with a .410.

Glad you are the one to have those problems. Damn fun hunting but I don't wish those bastards on anybody.

Must be coyote breeding season because I looked out the window this morning and saw one in the field behind my house. Grabbed the .270win, stepped out on the front porch and peeked around the corner of the house. Here came at least 4 of them straight towards me. I could tell it must have been a hot female they were chasing. She stopped at about 60 yards from the house and I dropped her. The second in line took off across the field right to left and I rolled him at 115 steps. That shot is definitely up there with my all time best.
Buzzards got to them before I could get a picture.

Brother and I went out last night and sat a while on a hot spot. Had a sounder come in about an hour after dark. He'd never shot a hog before, and thought it was cool to get it done with digital night vision (Wraith) on a suppressed AR-10. I enjoyed watching it happen through the thermal handheld monocular. He hit her with a typical lung shot you'd make on a deer, which is a touch far back on a hog, but the plus side was that she ran nearly right up to where we'd parked the Mule on the woods road. A 10yd drag is a good thing
