Blued and Walnut kind of day.

Tell us about the rifle?

Jim,
It's a Browning 1885 Low Wall in .243, out of production now under the Browning name but being churned out periodically under the Winchester banner.
Sweet, svelte little rifle, weighs dick nothing. 24 inch barrel feels like 18 due lack of receiver. I get over 3100 fps with an 87 V-Max.

That's cool!

Back to plastic today...

Out with the dogs

First ground hogs of the year.

Been playing cat and mouse with this guy for a couple weeks and his luck ran out today.
82 yards, 150 grain ELDX ( I know, I know it’s overkill but it’s what I had in the truck ) The ELDX opened him up pretty good.


Next one was out back of my house, later today, near my range. Had time to grab the 6x6.8 loaded with 70 NBT and take the shot out the back door. Told the wife she’d better hold her ears. Lol. No exit on this one.

They don’t drag as easy through the mud as the snow. But they still come to a dying rabbit.

Pretty saddle gun there, Ben !!!

Is that dog breedin' that yote - or eatin' that yote?

Fetching the fox, jumping over the fence.

First thermal two-fer. Lined them up and got both with one shot.





Snared this sow the next morning!

ya!

GWB

Had a good day P-dog hunting with my son

Good job on the feral dogs. They aren't a good thing to have around at calving time....or any time.
It's been a few years since we had an infestation of the damned things. It got so bad and they got so spooked that I and neighbor resorted to wolf snares.

been slow here in Northern Minnesota 20 starlings with a 22 LR , 22 K-Hornet smacked 1 possum , 2 feral cats

Where's the rest of it?
