My "go to" hunting, hikeing, COMBO.

Post by WCF3030 »

The case colored one likes a steady diet of Purina and table scraps.
While you can feed the reddish one pretty much anything.
One load they both seem to do well on is ham slices.

These pics were taken this morning while doing some shooting then going on a hike.
Image
We decided to see what toll nature put on some mature oaks over the winter in one of my hunting haunts.
Michael got a kick out of the blow downs and hollowed trees.
Image
Managed to get a 5 inch group with 15rds sitting at roughly 125 meters using the H&R 30-30 and a 1in 2 shot group using my Marlin 30-30.
Image
I say meters because I paced off 130 steps and there use to be a time when 107 steps was 100 meters.
Two final pic of my combo after an hour hike.

Great post. My son just turned 3 and I'm just itching to get him out in the woods more. We walk around over our 2 acres all the time when I'm clearing and burning brush.

Hard to keep the saliva from the case colored one off of the reddish one I expect.

Yeah. I have to wipe down the red one often.


Centershot,
I got lucky with that load worked great the first time out.

Way cool combo! I was sure expecting a rifle pistol combo, but this is WAY better. :D

That would be my first pick too.

Your welcome.
With any luck I'll be taking the "combo" on a day long trek to "Coyote Bluff" another hunting haunt to set up my coyote blind and see how the deer herd did after the hard winter we had.
I'll be sure to bring the camera.

I'd put a muzzle brake on the case-colored one and see if that helps. The other one looks good, but in my experience, the calibers keep increasing and so does the cost of feeding them.

Yes it is.
I think that he has had an apple everyday for at least a year.
In fact its usually and apple, banana and a navel orange everyday.
