Well.... I'm at McDonalds and Walmart again here in Eastern Oklahoma.. for the night... after a week of coyote hunting with a friend in Western Oklahoma. I killed a bunch of coyotes and even a 26.6 lb Bobcat with my 204... my buddy said that cat would pay for my room and board...LOL. We used his FoxPro Fury 2 for the first part, and I ran across a deal on a Shockwave... which he bought, and he called in another bobcat with it the next morning, using BayBee Cottontail rabbit.
I did manage to take a few pictures, but not as many as I wanted too... I just got lazy in all the action and stuff. I even got lazy about posting... sorry Guys.
These are Montana Sage Grouse sitting in the trees right by my van one morning.
I got a NEW WILD HAIR about two different rifle caliber/bullet combos, that I can't even sleep without thinking about them... and that's pretty bad when you think about rifle stuff more than your wife, after being gone for 6 weeks.
Anyways.... it's probably not new to most, but it is to me. I want two calibers built.
One... a 204 AI or 20-250, with fast twist barrels, so that I can shoot those 55 gr Bergers at screaming speeds... and... I have two other guys wanting to do the very same thing...ASAP.
And Two... a 22-250 AI or a 22-243, with fast twist barrels for the Berger 80 & 90 gr bullets. I really want to shoot the 90's with their BC of 551, which will require a 7 twist barrel...but a 8 may work as well. I can get my hands on a Bartlien 7.7 twist now... but I'm still in the thinking mode.
The whole purpose is too shoot light calibers, with heavy bullets, for fast wind bucking abilities... because the wind allowed a bunch of coyotes to live up there in Montana... and we just can't let that happen again.
So if anyone has any solid opinions... let me know... I'm all ears. thanks Guys... Dan
