120 gr is great for Coues. Shot my 2nd Coues with it and it did a fine job at 220yds. I also shoot 87 gr for varmint. Shot a prairie dog at 450 yds and was pretty amazed. On the flip side I notice quite a scope adjustment needed when going to the lighter bullet. 87 gr seems to travel about 3" higher at 100 yds on paper so you should shoot both and document scope adjustments in case you have to change bullet weights without being able to range shoot. My 25-06 is a Savage with a bull barrell. Great for varmints but heavy when I drug it around on a coues hunt.

I believe Amanda sums it up pretty well. Wear out your butt rather than your boots. Glass, glass and them glass some more. I've spent 3-4 hours in 1 spot and then bam! There he was.

Lol!! I feel your pain.

Amen to that!!!

You're right. It's not legal here but is definitely a rush. You'd love it for sure!! I lived in Oklahoma for a few years and went quite often. We would also gig White Bass at night on a boat like the one in your picture. If you ever have the chance to noodle, take advantage and hold on to that fish!

Have you guys ever gone noodling for catfish?

I meant bowfish.

That's cool! Where do you blowfish?

I like a .308 for kids.The 150 gr bullet mirrors the .30-06 150 gr specs without as much kick. Just something to think about.

Are you stuck on a 9mm? Does a new .38 snub interest you at all?

Usually the 1st part of August if I remember correctly from last year. Like waiting to fall asleep the night before opening morning. Feels like eternity before we get results!
