I want to see your predator set-ups!
« on: February 26, 2023, 07:30:02 PM »
Just like the title says, I would like to see or hear what gear you guys are running. I'm new to predator hunting and would like to see what works for y'all. Packs, calls, guns, shooting sticks, you name it! Thanks

Both are tack drivers and sub MOA out to 400

That's a very nice looking setup JJ. I bet it's a tack driver too.
