I didn't get nothing but a bunch of confused cattle. I was set up on a nice little mound, with taller ones behind me, with the wind in my face and managed to call in a real nice herd of cattle. I guess this is gonna' take a little more practice. I used two calls that day, both by Sceery. The first one was a course cottontail and the other was a jackrabbit call. I'll just keep trying until I get one that comes into range.
Anyone have any hints for this rookie? I had good cover and I know that there are coyotes in the area...they can often be seen in the pastures just trottin' around.
Also, I managed to do some squirrel shooting with my new Howa Varminter Supreme in .223! My long shot of the weekend was a surprising 406 yds. I was using Ultramax 55gr Nosler BT that day. My rifle seems to like the 50gr V-Max reloads from Black hills the best though. At the range I was getting .5 MOA with 5 shot groups...not too bad for a factory "cheapie"!
Until next time,
Steve
