    So, I went to the PF/QF banquet last night and won a gun, FINALLY! Now, it was not the gun that I wanted to win but it was the gun that I was able to afford entry into the contest to win! It is a Ruger 10/22 with a synthetic stock, I have to pick it up at Range 54 in Wichita. I am hoping they will be willing to give me at least the majority of the price of the .22 off of something like:

      Jonathon that rifle will serve you well and as processhead said have good optics. That caliber will reach out, the challenging part right now is finding ammo. Practice with what you shoot, reloading will give you more options.

        So, went and picked up my gun last night. They had a sale on a savage arms 6.5 Creedmoor with a scope so I got credit for the 10/.22 breakdown and bought this. Not the.fanciest gun in the world but it’ll do what I need!

                processhead it is a sig saur Buckmaster. I don’t know much about scopes but it seems like a decent one and I at least am familiar with the brand.

                    Jonathon Your going to have fun with that rifle. Good caliber and Savage has made great strides in the bolt gun world in the past decade.

                      Jonathon Nice looking set up, now get to the range and get to know it. One bit of advice, always shoot before a hunt never assume that it is still sighted in.

                          Update…we have some serious oddness with this rifle. I will talk about it on the podcast and then update everyone when it finally gets figured out but all is not as it seems to be and someone (not me) might have made a rather large mistake. Could be a large bank error in my favor…that PatrickB is called a teaser

                                I’m guessing this is 2x what the 10/22 would have been worth. Id’ say you REALLY won this time.

                                          Update…we have some serious oddness with this rifle. I will talk about it on the podcast and then update everyone when it finally gets figured out but all is not as it seems to be and someone (not me) might have made a rather large mistake. Could be a large bank error in my favor…that PatrickB is called a teaser

                                          Well knowing the unimpeachable character and high moral standards of Jonathon , we ALL know he will do the right thing, report the error and pay back the difference. With interest… lol
