Sept. is almost over :!: :!: :!: :mrgreen: Has any one been doing any hunting :?: :?: So far we have been out for coyotes, deer, bear, 3 kinds of grouse, doves, and will get some ducking in before the mth. ends. This site seem slow..... What are you all up tooo these days :?: :?: :?: :?: :?:
"Bout all that's open here is squill. I think Dove season(the first part) is over for now. Geese may be in, but I've never done any of that. Deer season(archery) doesn't start until the first Sat in Oct. Rifle and MZ deer season opens in Nov, as does small game turkey and bear.
I've been dove hunting a few times, and limited out 3 times. With the rain and the cool fronts we gotten down here, the doves have moved south. Will have to wait until more come down from Oklahoma!
I've been working on a good hunting load for my 14" 7-30 Waters, Contender. My mild fireforming loads with W748 were very accurate, but when loaded up for speed, 3" - 4" groups were the best I could get. After 4 more powders and 3 different bullets, I finally have a load that runs about 3/4". Now I'm happy.
:mrgreen: Was out this am for ducks. Killed my first limit of mallards and teal with my Browning BPS 10 ga. :twisted: Never owned a 10 before, but this thing is murder on ducks. I am not sure what the reason is, no real long shots, but typical duck stuff. The came down dead with a load of WW 1's. Little ones/ big ones were just hammered. It is a bit heavy, but for performance like this, I can put up with it. My dog had a wonderful time. She made a couple nice retrieves.....
We got some teal and woodies last Friday and Saturday. Constant steady rain made for tough conditions, but was still enjoyable.
