    NAUGHTY TEENAGERS

    Was out waitn for a deer to come out for a evening dinner.Watched a good stag at 460yds,i couldv shot him as i practice a bit of 400yds shooting at the range.But at that distance he s liable to be a wounded walking stag,il try and get closer.As i tryed to get closer i came across a young spiker trying his girl friend out.I thort theyl do for the freezer,easier to handle than a big pissed up stag.Shot them off the shooting stick at about 140yds.Havnt had a deer for 3 months,tryed hard enough even with a couple of misses.So i was pretty pleased with my self.Name:  20220406_073548.jpg

    Well done.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Hi nor west,only about 22kgs,wrapped and weighed.Not much on the youngn,but very tasty.Just use a tika 308,18 inch barrel.Jaeger 1.5x6x42 on top.Can shoot moa out to 400yds with it.Great little evening scope.The big stag was tempting,but there was a fare bit of cross wind and getting on to dark.I just enjoyed watching him,so he gets to live another day.
