Negatory there bucko, they be turkeys. Was just getting ready to take a shot at a grass rat and wouldn't you know it, a stink'n turkey started chase'n it and it ran back to the hole. Should've plugged the bird just for getting in the way. >:(

Made 812 yard shot last night. Missed hog twice with two spotter rounds. Once we saw bullet splash i made correction. Hold off was about a foot due to wind. Anyone interested in getting a long range rifle built call Harry Suarez. His work is outstanding and reasonable. 724-825-5938

I have a 12 to 42 power nightforce scope on rifle. Seeing a groundhog out to 1100 yards is no problem. Still trying to get into the 1000 yard club. Not successful yet. Must have a witness to get in this club.
