When I go squirrel hunting with my boss he always brings his Ruger 22/45 handgun but uses it mostly for kill shots if it's not dead after using his rifle. I believe he also uses a .357 handgun for deer but has gotten one in close enough to make a good shot.
Finally got to test the sights last weekend. I really enjoyed them and can't wait for squirrel/rabbit hunting to start now. Got to practice more while standing but at least now they are sighted in. Still a little worried about hunting in early morning since it was a tad bit hard to see top of...
My friend went to Rural King in Columbus yesterday and they apparently told him they get .22LR almost everyday. Don't know why that store would get it a lot but other stores rarely get any in. I just got my first 22 last year so don't really know what a good price for .22LR ammo even is.
The only reason I bought the 870 over the 500 was because it was on sale for the same price as 500. My buddy I hunt with a lot has the 500 and it seems to rattle a lot. I don't know if that's because he tosses it on the ground(empty) or it came that way. Otherwise I think both are great guns...
Thanks for all the information everyone! Definitely will be getting these, now just have to decide on whether to get the TSR100 or TSR200. ScouT6a, I was thinking about getting a scope but haven't had much practice shooting so thought it would be best to get good with iron sights before I move...
Was thinking of making my first upgrade to my Ruger 10/22 and everywhere I look people seem to really like Tech sights. Since I only use my guns for hunting was wondering if anyone had any experience using Tech sights for squirrel hunting?
Gander Mountain in greenwood had around 30 boxes or more of Federal .22lr 50 rounds for $2.49. Went there late Sunday so might still be some there Monday.
Anyone have any land I could hunt waterfowl on Sugar Creek in or around Johnson County. Also looking for ponds or fields near them. I've been hunting for about 2 years and the only spots I have are ones that I need to go with a friend to hunt. They don't like to hunt as often as I do so I'm...
Got my first duck ever today. I've never seen a wood duck until now and I have to say it's a great looking bird. Going back tomorrow for more hopefully.
I'm in but I wouldn't call what I can grow a beard. It's more like a short patchy mess. Usually don't shave it from the beginning of waterfowl early season to the end of waterfowl late season.
