Title: 1st blood with new rifle
Post by: buglebuster on December 19, 2013, 10:15:18 AM: Went out this morning to try and kill a dog with my new remington 700 sps tactical. Got to my location and waited till it was light enough to see and walked in. I set up on a little rise and let the johnny stewart preymaster rip. 5 min later I had a coyote bombing across left to right in front of me. I raised the rifle and it stopped and boom! Dirt nap! 60yd shot and the 50gr v max did great, like always. Made 3 more stands but didnt turn anything uo.

I think the cat he's talking about would probably be the one doing the eating :chuckle:(https://hunting-washington.com/smf/proxy.php?request=http%3A%2F%2Fimg.tapatalk.com%2Fd%2F13%2F12%2F20%2Fhama6emu.jpg&hash=6617a29c2d1127aa8cf3fa62d8fd85666a120856)
