Good news is he was stupid enough to brag about it online.

I've had one and know lots of people who have had them as well. Nobody was happy with them. Used to be lots of them for sale on here and other forums for a fraction of their original price. Definitely one to avoid.

What a bruiser! Nice job to all those involved!

I'm 100% guaranteed this year - putting in for a bonus point.

Awesome - love the colors on those. That big hook jaw rocks! Thanks for sharing!

I was in the market for a Leica but definitely need to check this one out. I'm on my second Vortex and aside from awesome customer service don't find a lot to like about it.

I'm way too hard on my pants to buy the $200 ones. Too many barbed wire fences, etc. I do have a couple of nice/pricey shirts and jackets that I like. Lot of thin layers are key, but most of my hunting pants are $30 BDUs with lots of pockets. Might try some 5:11 some time.

I've got one but it's not for sale

Great job! Patience and hard work paying off.

Looking forward to watching it.

We had a great time over the last two weekends hunting turkey. We had 2 junior tags and two general (early) tags. Went 3 of 4 so far. My middle son, Nick hurt his knee chasing a big old tom - tripped on a rock at full sprint and landed directly on his kneecap on another rock. Took him out of baseball for the last week of the season. Here's the pix. My youngest, Josh got this long bearded old tom opening day. He's 4 for 4 now on opening weekend since he was ten. The next weekend it was me and Matt. Friday I took this really nice bird. Saturday it was Matt's turn. After some close calls, we were ready to call it a day when this guy showed up. We still have time for Nick to get back out there and find one, but it's getting tougher. The birds seem to have bred out early and we're finding lots of solo toms and bred hens. Fun times, hope you enjoy the pix.

Congrats! Beautiful gobbler!

Sweet pistol. I'd buy it if I had discretionary funds.

That's a true gem - not many have the 22RE and a solid front axle. Too many projects going on for me, but these are very rarely available. Sweet rig for sure.

Darn nice bow. Someone is going to jump on it.

We will be up there somewhere. Good luck everyone, and thanks to all the parents and mentors getting the kids out there.

Very impressive bucks! Huge congrats and welcome to the site!

So Cool! Great job and thanks for sharing those hunts with us. Really freaking awesome.

I'm in the same boat. In my 6.5 I've worked up some really great loads with 140 gr. Accubonds and their performance on game is limited to one Muley buck at 400 yards but were absolutely devastating - I'm talking through both shoulders and a massive wound channel. I've done a few loads with the 142 Long Range version but haven't really compared them at 4-500 yards. The old saying, "If it ain't broke don't fix it" might apply here as the regular accubonds fly great and have fantastic terminal effects. That said, I'm going to load up some batches of the Accubonds and LR Accubonds that are otherwise identical and see if one out-performs the other at 500 yards.

Man, that is awesome. My oldest is looking for his first rifle, but I don't think he has enough banked for that one. I love the wood stock too.

Wow - that's an awesome set! I'd be looking for him this year for sure.

I'm sure there was a pretty good waiting line for it - I was in it. Good rule of selling is whoever shows up with cash first wins.

Dang DesertBull, they didn't give me any of that. I came home, took a couple shots of NyQuil and slept until the next morning. But you ABSOLUTELY need to use the eye drops they give you - for me it was something like a month, several times a day. Not sure if that's still standard procedure.

Wow - I didn't think it was legal here. Not a fan of the practice, for what it's worth.

Anybody can shoot a gobbler in a roost tree. Ethical?, in my opinion, No. As far as I know, it isn't legal either. Call 'em in, learn the language, make it fun and challenging. That's the whole point of hunting turkeys in the Spring!
