The new VTR is treating me well. Switched to the 40 grain. Nothing got away this time with a bullet in him. Another good size one too, 34 lbs. He was 402 yards, gave him 12" and few to the right for wind. So far I'm pretty impressed with the new set up.

Awsome slinger, the 40gr. Nosler Ballistic Tip is my favorite in my AR.

12 kills that I have actually found. Cripled a few more and knocked down and lost a few.

The set up was purchased at cabelas. Gun was on sale for $679.00, rings $70, scope on sale for $329.00. After tax I was almost $1200. Very pleased!!!

very nice, lots of dawgs up that way. I go to a place near o-town and I see a ton of them every time I go.

Looks like a great day. That one on the right looks like he's been spending some time at the gym..

Good shootin! It is hard to beat the .204 with the 40 grain V-max. I knocked a few down this weekend with the same combo - great minds think alike

Congrats and nice job. Just curious, are you putting the fur up?

Nice work. My VTR is jealous of yours.

Congrats, If I shot 3 at least I would be smiling

. Yep, I'm almost always using my 204 anymore too. It's a great coyote caliber.

I'm always happy to role a yoter or two. But its other missed opportunities that make me scower. I have a new nemesis I cant conquer.

ge has had 2 good chances and u have had more than 1 so i wont put them so close no more, now they wil b around the 300 yard mark now

Maybe I would have better luck shooting at them farther out.

509er · « **Reply #20 on:** January 26, 2009, 08:58:19 PM »

Remember that is Ducks 300, that means if he is shooting 300 yards is really 75 yards. If someone else is shooting, 300 yards is really 450 yards.
