Hunting the Hunters
In the past I owned only shotguns (and a Marlin 336 in .35 caliber – with iron sights).
Now that I live in SoCal instead of NJ, I’ve developed an interest in rifles.
I thought a .243 Winchester would be a good cartridge, as it’s referred to as a “triple threat”; varmint, deer and bench shooter.
I never thought I would enjoy shooting paper, but scoping in my .243 was great fun.
I’ve recently purchased a .204 since I can only shoot paper and varmint hunt right now.
In the past eight weeks I have taken four coyotes; three with my .243 using 75 gr. V-max’s, and then just this past Saturday one with my new .204 using 40 gr. V-max’s.
Hunting the Hunters; Great fun !!!!
