We are getting toward my favorite time of year!!
I put a new scope on the 17HMR and I need to get to the range to get zero set. I often switch from the Mach 2 to the HMR during the winter.

Mine started shooting 6" groups at 100 yds. I threw a different scope on it, but haven't shot it yet to see if it was the scope or the gun.

Got my single shot sportster and my RAR out a couple weeks ago, and checked the sights. Good to go. Just gotta get my hunting clothes ready, come 1st week of August.

IF I can get a 1/2 hr window of no or light rain, I'll run outside and shoot the 17 HMR to see if it's the gun or the scope.

Been watching this guy. Hoping to get him this year. Could’ve killed him easily Turkey season but……not squirrel season then.   |

I can't believe the season's almost here either,I haven't even gotten my hunting license yet. I hope I don't entering the contest like I did last year.

I'm gonna say this:
I have been in the woods a little bit getting ready to start cutting firewood and the mosquitoes are HORRIBLE! They won't stop me from cutting or hunting, but I'm telling you, stock up on bug spray!

The little woods I hunt rarely has many mosquitos in it but that reminds me,I think I might be getting low on that,I need to check sometime. |

The skeeters ARE horrible this year. They waited for a long time to come out and when they did, they all came out at once. 24% Deet isn't strong enough to keep them from landing on you.

I must be an odd ball but it seems to me the higher the deet percentage the more that land on me.
