First morning out hunting

[capetown]

Well didnt get my moose today but saw a cow and baby, 2 nice size white tail, and the biggest black bear ive seen in a long time. Was only out for about an hour so i will go back tonight and Im sure i will get one. Have a white tail tag as well but the big guys arent close to coming out yet. Need the temp to drop . Still 25 degrees during the day here

[capetown]

[Lunk1]

[bigZthedestroyer]

Hate bear!!! If i thought that i could ship it across the boarder, i would. I dont even really need any meat this year. I will probably give most the moose away, make jerky and sausage out of deer. Bull Elk is a general tag so i might grab one if these 2 tags are filled before the weather drop to minus 40. If I dont, i wont lose any sleep. I wont get drawn for a moose again for 2 years so i have to get this tag filled

[S&S_ShovelHead]

Where do you hunt? My gfs dad just got a nice moose in the Yukon.

Thye bear is a little (alot) fatty but you soak a roast in teryaki marinade for acpl days then sprinkle heavy with Rosemary and toss it on a grill or smoker mmmmmmm

[MickeyKnox]

i'll mail you a cheek..(not an ass cheek)

[capetown]

Lol. I know. 180 grain bullet. And no but it did drop an elk last year. So i guess my answer is no, i never have dropped a moose with this gun but i know it will.

I know it will too, hell that's what I shoot. Are you going to stick a bear with your knife, lol.

an odd six will drop an adult moose with ease. what's more important is, shot placement and the type of bullet.

Thanks your a real pal!

I agree...06 was pretty much all the old timers ever used...remember it was the main caliber used in Military rifles for alot of years and the guns and ammo were readily available WW11 era so it was used on everything from fox and coyote to Moose and Grizz

[MickeyKnox]

capetown, zero your rifle to 275yds. you now have a 10" point blank range (PBR) of about 325yrds - no holdover. and anything out to 325 is a chip shot with a rest and a quality scope.

Yup the old m-1 grand! Nice rifle, this old man used to deer hunt with it at my old hunting camp. Thing weighted a ton!

[Lunk1]

Not a better battlefield rifle was ever made!!!

[Capebuffalo]

Factory loads or do you load your own?
I like
Loading my own. Just a little hotter than spec

[Capebuffalo]

Not worried about the mauling I'm worried about.

It cuddling afterward that scares me

[Riptorn]

Shol. Sounds to me like cape wouldn't mind being a twink sans cuddle. Lol

[capetown]

Well it didnt happen. Got to take the boy to see Hotel Transylvania instead. Was well worth it. My boy is 5 now. He really gets the jokes now and we laugh louder than anyone.
Maybe later this week i will get out.

I have it in for 200. 300 yards is about a 2 inch drop. Im really no good at messing with my scope and am just glad when its in.

Yup, bull tag. I saw a nice bull tonight too!! Too bad it was in the middle of the highway while i was going to movies. Lol

In Jersey we can't use rifles, so this year I'm gonna be hunting with a new Savage 212, it's a 12 gauge BOLT ACTION rifled slug gun...I was previously using a pump action Mossberg 20 ga. with a rifled barrel, I'm effective to about 160 yards with it. The Savage 212 however is supposed to have an effective range of about 300 yards tops, that is pretty damn impressive for a 12ga slug. I use Lightfield Sabots, but I'm going to be using Hornady SST's this year, to make up for the loss in flat trajectory of the 20ga. I hunt mostly deer, but also enjoy snow geese, pheasent, and duck.

[Rwy]

what a bunch of hill billys lol

umm gonna go shot me a dear
