Nice wrench.  Did she end up eating much of it? Maybe rabbit next?

She ate a front leg, a back leg, and tried to eat a back piece.  I ate the rest, and she wasn't lying it was tough as a shoe   She has had rabbit and loves it.  Who doesn't? 

I called about a Coyote .25 and it turns out they discontinued it.....and wouldn't say why  

They tried to sway me towards the Urban .25.....but I don't like the Urban (thumbhole stock and all that crap) so I'm out of the PCP mood again for now, which I'm kinda glad because I know how I am, and once I go there I will invariably spend 3k before I get satisfied with my setup.   I don't need that in my life right now, I need to buy a new truck this year.

That was pretty cool.   The thing I noticed during my starling hunt was that they didn't spook at all from the noise of the gun at 40 yards.  I don't think they even knew where the noise was coming from or what it was.  They'd flush out of the tree but come right back time after time.   It was alot of fun.

I wish we could hunt turkeys with airguns, I think that would be the ultimate.

I only have 2 ways that i will cook and eat it. My favorite is lightly browned, then sauteed in cream of mushroom soup, for an hour. 2nd is crock pot bbq. 

Well that stinks. I read a few reviews on it that were pretty mixed. Most said it was very accurate. I think after i buy my new to me boat soon that i will get the Bull Boss. I have watched probably 30 videos of it now, and with it being an Arkansas company, makes it an easy choice for that gun. Already got my next Hawke scope picked out for it.

As i look 16" out my front window of a goob of birds eating from the feeder, my hope is that dang armidillo comes back out. He has my yard tore to crap. Shot the one a few weeks back in the forehead with the 25. Guess this one didnt witness the outcome, and leave.

Well for some insane reason YouTube is giving the boot to all the really good airgun channels.  AOA is gone, Ted's Holdover, Matt B., Pyramyd Air, American Airgunner, ect.   

They've all been demonitized and/or completely kicked off of YT.  

Crazy, hu?  What the heck?   Can anyone make some sense out of that?  Airguns of all things.

Seen all kinds of complaints about it on FB.  Some say even certain food channels that cook wild game got the Ax.  One guy, Donnie something, posted a few articles this weekend in regards to youtube deleting channels, and that his sources told him that all channels that mention any type of gun will be gone soon.  Another Facebook takeover it appears.

Is this related to FB ?   Google obviously, but I didn't know FB was connected.

no but the blind lead the blind in those circles.

Having a blast with the new toy !

My best 20 yard off hand group happened today.  Could still use a little more trigger work but I don't wanna make it unsafe.    

502fps.  11.7ft/lbs.

Had fun shooting with my 10year old daughter last Sunday. She was a little   inconsistent at first but her last 3 5 shot groups were quarter sized at 20 yards. She made me proud. I did not fire a shot.
