this weekend we had a great time in Columbia Lousiana. I meet some really good people and hard a great time hunting hogs and plinkin away at turtles and snakes.
I had my trusty Marlin 22magnum with about 50rounds. I was making shots at 100+yards and even across the lakes/ponds my shots couldnt miss. i think the 4 i misses were due to the trigger pull or the dirty barrel. I busted a bird (not sure what kind) sittin on a branch across a 150yard pond about 40feet up with no problem. ..... Turtles up to 100 yards on the water. Im not just saying all this to brag.... ok yea i am.
Thanks a lot! [:@] Shooters/hunters have enough problems with all the anti stuff, and you got to go bustin turtles, and UNIDENTIFIED stuff (birds). Oh yeah, not to mention
unsafe shooting practices - like shooting across lakes/ponds, and birds sitting on a branch. Ever heard of ricochets? How about proper backstops? Know your target, AND
what's beyond it. Top it all off, you want to brag about it.
You remind me of a line from a favorite movie: "Texans, lowest form of white man there is!" (Robert Duvall in "
Geronimo")
ps: Think maybe I'll send this infor. to the LA. state G&F folks. How the heck did you ever pass a firearms safety course! Ethics need a little help too!
