Hunting and shooting thread

[Stihlsmoking]

Here's a rack I saw last year. A worker at the gun section of my local Dick's sporting goods shot it in selinsgrove behind the jail. Now its mounted in the store for your viewing pleasure. Scored a 205 I believe.

I'd take one like that, but I got a good one this year I hope one of the other guys gets I nice one. I'll probably take first legal one I see.

Did some sighting in today. Getting ready for opening day in Pa.
hear there's 12"s and more on the way where we're headed should be a good time.

Middle one is a that a 740 742 etc in what caliber?
I had one in MT 30.06 when I lived out there.
Liked the semi myself with mounts that flipped to the side when open sites were needed.

One of the twin ear wide 8 pts teased me during day light. About busted his butt.

Got pics of the twins and reaper chasing does after dark too.

New 10pt showed up at my other land . Now if he will just show up 4hrs later on Monday morning start of gun season.

Dad still hasnt seen the 13-15pt in daylight this year in same area. Only on cam.

To be truthful come gun season meat will hit the ground first chance. Then back to looking at racks.

My email said that is now changed. The governor signed. Semi rifles are allowed in rifle zones.

Here's one my son got. He's the skinny one holding the horns. My dad on the right, at 90 still hunts. He was a timber faller. My son also works in the woods, he drives skidded. That leaves the other two, one of them is a dog. They both work construction. We hunt Blacktail, this is a nice one for our area. Our shots range from 100 yds. to 500 yds.

That's good to know but don't have any semi'auto deer rifles cause they were useless there ?
