    Delta Titanium 4-24 from Sarvo on my .223. Will do a review when I get home. But so far I'm very impressed. 239 yard lung shot with the 52 grn Targex trundling along at 3270 fps.

    You depart with mighty boasts, but you come back having done little.
    Sounds like a typical hunting trip !

    Go the fluffy girl
    You could always take to her underside with the clippers. Helps them to cool down a bit when they are laying down.
    Nice job on the hoppers
