That is ausome. I got a little fawn that my dad taxidermied that was only a few days from being born. Momma got hit.by car and had three in her.

These were in a doe that got hit and ran into my yard. I had to go out and shoot her.

Probably MEC stuff. The 600/650/750 series reloaders were pretty popular and affordable back in those days. I've got two 650's, one for 12's and one for 20's.

Would certainly be interested in seeing the pics.
MEC is good stuff. I've got 9000H's in 12ga & 20ga, as well as a 700 in .410 and a 600jr in 10ga. I've had all of them since the mid 90's. Never a bit of trouble. The 12ga machine has loaded in excess of 50,000rds.
The 9000H's are nice. Instead of pulling a handle, you step on a pedal.
I started loading on a 600jr in 1973 and have never owned anything else, for shotgun.

My wife has been begging for a little buck for the freezer for a few seasons now. We've been fortunate to harvest nothing but old bucks for the past 6 or 7 years. So yesterday, my daughter and I set out to fill mama's request.edited_1476574774014.jpgThat's my 16 y/o daughter's new "huntin' truck". She had it less than 24 hours before getting blood in it.

Oh, and that's my first (and favorite saw). 154se. I've had it for 20 or so years. Still the first saw I grab.

I'm going to share the one we have been after for awhile now, the one I showed the sheds from the past 3 seasons earlier.
Dad hunts him the hardest as it is 2 old guys in the woods. He seems to run my place alot which is very cool.

Never noticed that was a spotted fawn in front of him

Does he have a split on his right brow? Just went back and looked at the old sheds.

5yr?

If I remember right. Both sides split making double brows this year.
Would have to look at the rest of the pics again.

At least I was thinking this 6yr min This is the 4th season seeing this size rack.

All depends on how much you want to spend. If you have deeper pockets then me, Reconyx.

Other than that I've had good luck with the newer Browning Strikeforce, Bushnell Trophy, Muddy 12 mp. I usually run a couple dozen located over a handful of properties.

I refuse to buy any cuddeback cams anymore. Had very good luck with them years ago, but the newer ones are junk imo, literally threw 2 away yesterday

I'm a cheap butt so I buy cheap and if they break or get stolen I am just pizzed for 1.3 seconds. ;)
Then buy more.

Seems to be hit and miss. I have bought better ones in the past and only last 1 fing season. Put out next season and be fubarred. So I swore off the pricey stuff.
