GENERAL CATEGORY / HUNTING AND FISHING / Opening Night!
|
on: November 07, 2011, 09:41:40 pm

well, no huge buck on opening day, but had great hunt that night! while sitting in my stand I noticed all the areas that had been rooted up in front of it, as well as the area around my feeder. Sun down, moon up time to change species. Went back to camp, ate a little bit, changed gear and weapons. put the .243 up and broke out the SKS Paratrooper, recently scoped and sighted in with some PCI ammo loaded with Hornady V-max 123gr. headed out back to the stand which is on the south end of a 20 acre meadow. as I skirted the tree line, i could here some rustling and grunting in the trees, so i stopped, moved closer to the trees and just as i got ready a large body made an apearance about 30 yards in front of me. moon was bright enough that i put the x-hairs just behind the ear and squeezed. the V-max did a number, he went down and never moved. large amount of blood pouring from his mouth and nose.

How do you like that nd3? Nice hog!
it worked ok as lond as the temp was above 65 degrees. 3rd time i used it the hogs got spooked an' ran at about 150 yrds. the Millett has a large objective (56mm) and good glass, just a little moon goes a long way. i sold it last month cause I just didn't use it like i thought I would. If you buy one buy the Subzero for the cold it's worth the xtra cash. my focus now is buying a Ruger Gunsite carbine and putting a good 1-4 X 24 scope on it and mounting a PVS-14 night vision on the rail in front of the scope. should be a good day/night setup.
