well its time to take care of the chicken/duck eaters. I live on 5 acres that borders tree farm and they come in from the forest, have caught many of them on my cameras but never shot one. I have a pasture in the lower corner of my property and plan to use a call to bring them in so I can start eliminating the dirty dogs.
so to some questions, would my ar15 w/p223 scope be a good start or should I use my .308 (seems a little overkill), also have a mini30 (7.62x39). ?? i don't have 22-250, 243, etc.
when calling I plan to sit in my tree stand hidden about 100 yards from the call area (lower pasture). how close will they come to the call? thinking about placement of e-call. could go as far as 40-50 yards from the edge of the tree farm.
anyone ever call in a 30-40 year old forest? guessing too much cover and obstruction to get a clear shot but there are a couple good spots i can think of out there.
do the tail wagers work ok in tight spots? i don't have one but could easily set one up using a servo from my RC car.
thanks
