Kat bones you are welcome as It is a pleasure to have you with us we are kinda like family with disabilitys and we each have our own specific problems. We can relate to each of our problems and difficultys and that keeps us close at least in my opinion. Once again glad to have you with us.

I'm "hooked" on woodchuck hunting myself! Started about 25 years ago when I was able to walk,now that's how I keep from going crazy during the off season. Enjoy...

Hey Jack woodchucks huh? I know we got em here I just havent ever seen one and if I did I wouldnt know what they were. I moved up here from Kansas 6 years ago so theres alot of game Im not familiar with but it sounds like fun. Thanks Jimmy

For 200 yards and under I use a .223 15" Encore pistol,and when I want to "reach-out",I have 2 different calibers I shoot. First is a 25-06 and my super long-range gun is a Savage 116 in the 7mm-08 with a 24X Leupold Mil-Dot target scope,I also put a Jewell Trigger in it that is set to around 4 to 6oz...

200 yards with a pistol man thats gotta be one bad momma. Ive been lookin at the Encore pistols and would love to have one but the price is beyond my budget at the present time. Ive heard alot of people use the 25-06 for varmints and I hope to get one soon, all I have now is a 22lr and a .270win. It sure sounds like fun especially at that range.Thanks Jimmy



Good for you Idahunter,, Way to get out there and enjoy. Also, thank you for welcoming in my post to the family of disabled hunters,, it trully means alot to me.
