I would have been dumpin lead on that buck when he got near you in that saddle! How funny would it be to drop him right in front of those two buttholes!

#4 buck is money. -
Get a small alligator clip and tie a section of fishing line to it with a small fishing swivel then onto your squirrel tail. You can clip it onto any small limb or bush. I have the same set up but use feathers. it moves quite a bit with the slightest breeze.

I highly doubt the number of deer dropped in a unit so dramatically in one or even a couple of years for that matter. I have been in your shoes a number of times and I believe it all has to do with weather, rainfall, hunting pressure etc.(theres many different factors) say it doesnt rain the same amount or even at the same time of year as it did in years past you will have different feeds coming in or not coming in so the deer move to the food whatever that may be any given year.

I have one of those tents they are definately worth the money. Really nice when its cold as heck and you throw a heater in it! Makes getting out of bed a whole lot easier! One thing you need to do is if you have to pack it up and its still wet is set it up to dry when you get home they mold up real quick.

So....I have a little problem here & was wondering if anyone else has delt with any accuracy issues similar to mine. I have a kimber montana in .300wsm with a leupold 6.5-20 mounted on it. Im shooting factory loads until I am able to load my own shells and do that whole thing but the way this guns shooting right now is no where near where it needs to be even with factory shells, which i have tried many brands so im pretty sure thats not the issue. At 200 yards it is all over the place in any which direction (mainly 4-6 inches to the left or the right) which leads me to believe it is a scope issue. Not knowing a whole lot about this type of thing i took the scope off tonight & am looking at this IMO ridiculous kimber ring & base mount. the rear ring is held in place by two opposing flathead set screws into a small groove in the ring. To me that seems like a good place to start looking for my accuracy problem. I may be wrong (good chance) but if anyone has any helpful tips or past experience with this issue i would appreciate some help.

How was your grouping before you messed with the screws? was it all over the place? how far off was it?
-
Thanks for the info i appreciate it. Saves me alot of time as opposed to the trial and error route. I am going to try & set the screws as evenly as possible & if that doesnt work i will be buying new ones. My buddy just bought a scope lapper kit so i will use that and try & dial her in.

Ya thats why i was asking you all for your opinions caseys full of it!
-
I wasnt asking you meat gazer! I figured you were still sleeping. Anyway should I have to do all sorts of custom work in order to get a smaller than six inch group at 200 yards out of a Kimber rifle? I didnt think so. Were not talking getting it within 2".

Glass too long and you may see wild emu! Another good reason to buy good glass!

I would bet 70 or darn close to it. -
HAHA! Thats fricken hilarious man! I think that will answer his question!
-
I would say get the one that looks best to you. If the leupold is clearer than buy that. eyeballs vary as do scopes and their prices....
