Got a new one for small game - I just finished it up a few weeks ago.
As seen in the raccoon thread, but now it has a front sight and a flash hider.

This carbine has slayed many a prairie dog and I cant wait for my first yote. I bought the Primos "Lil Dog" open reed set and have been listening to the CD every night. I'll keep yall updated.

I weighed it without the optic, it came in right at 7 lbs. 8 lbs 5oz with the optic and mount. It balances, even with the optic, right at the midpoint of the magwell. Shoots ~1 MOA with SSA 115 OTM and just a bit more with SSA Barnes 110 TSX and 110 Pro Hunters (combat loads). |

THe green has a faded look to the edges.....How did you do that? What scope do you have? Since you have both front grip and bipod, have you considered the grip pod or T-pod? You would then have room for your hand on the handguard. http://www.fab-defense.com/en/category-bi-pods/id-158/tactical-foregrip-bipod.html http://www.grippod.com/ |

Thanks.... I just swiped the green over the scope while spraying and it faded in by its self.
The scope is the Leapers Accushot T168. It is on the lower end of the price range, but performance has been exceptional. Light, Fixed 6X power.. which i've been told is fine for practical coyote ranges. Wide field of view. illuminated recital, holds zero when remounted. http://www.cheaperthandirt.com/SCP615-1.html They say that it's no longer available... hummmm!!! I thought about a grip pod.. The harris is not that heavy and the legs can be adjusted for camber. I know the for-grip doesn't serve much of a purpose.. just looks cool I guess... well I take that back. I Went on a hunt the other day on snowmobiles and I was riding with the carbine upright across my lap and squeezing the pistol grip and the front grip with my legs while sitting down, worked pretty well to keep it in place. I'm just rambling. DPMS Kit lower DPMS Lower parts kit Any ideas on a nice adjustable single stage trigger? CMMG 16" M4 upper 1/7 Specter SOP 3pt sling DPMS Mangonel BUIS Man I can't wait for my first yote!! Might have to keep the pelt |

The thing I love about it is that I can touch it up or change it whenever I see fit, or just wash the whole thing off. I've used Krylon on my shotgun, mags, my hunting ladder, and even some nylon gear, and the stuff is great. Really holds up - and I'm not necessarily "nice" to my gear. |

Hey WW.... It is the Krylon Camouflage line and I used Khaki and Olive. I'm in eastern Idaho and there is a lot of willows and sage, especially central Idaho in the desert / lava flats. I will know in the spring summer how well this color will blend in overall. We just have soo much snow that the only way to get out in the fields is by snow shoe or snow machine. I've seen a ton of track in the snow... I'm just trying different tactics on bringing dogs out!

If you're keeping shots inside of 100 yds, and you're confident with the sight, then go for it. I know a guy that hunts very successfully with his EOtech. |

Sounds like a good plan to me. I have a 4 MOA Aimpoint and it works pretty well...2 MOA would probably be better. |

I thought about buying an Eotech a little while ago, I almost got one but then I decided that it just isn't practical for me. If you're going to be shooting inside 100 yards though then it would be great, just make sure you get a small dot. I would get the 2 MOA dot over the 4, and look at the Eotechs too because they make a reticle with a 1 MOA dot and then a 65 MOA circle around it, that's what I liked the most.

I took this pic on Friday evening after a long unsuccessful day of javelina hunting. It's a 20" HBAR with a YHM free floated rail (gets very heavy after awhile). The scope is a Leupold 2-7x33 Rifleman. Not quite enough magnification as I had hoped for, so I may upgrade in the future. With the tax return I am adding a Harris bipod. |

On the back side of the shell deflector thing, the camo job was rubbed off down to the original finish, so i just used some krylon to patch it up. |

AZ 5rd center fire law makes varmint shooting a bit more challenging out past 600yds on high wind days if you are having to walk your shots in or are shooting a moving target. I use 20 round mags mechanically limited to 5rd cap.

I just scoped it and got it sighted in a week ago. We were sighting in several rifles and I didn't really get to push it past 125 yds. It's my first experience with a scoped rifle of any kind and I'm not making any claims until I get my bench rest bipod. The barrel was a 16" wilson that I took off of my Entry Tactical and had cut to 14.5" before perm. attaching the break. I was very worried when I went to sight it in but I feel real good about it now, give me a little more practice and I'll post some targets. |

I haven't gotten anything living with my AR yet, only had it a week but it's a EE lower, Oly 16" upper, and a Simmons scope. Looking for a bipod and I will be out to take the snapping turtle/water moccasin population at my friends ranch again.
http://i75.photobucket.com/albums/i292/jaysensing/DSC_0084.jpg Up until now, I've been sniping the random water pests with a .17 HMR but it was a PITA to headshot turtle from long distances over water, the slightest deviation was a miss or a ricochet off the shell because it just didn't have the energy. |

Why do you want a VFG? I find that for hunting they just get in the way, and bipods, unless you are shooting from a static position, like p-dogs or such, are just extra weight. That's my point of view as a predator hunter, anyways.

The VFG is just more comfortable to me, I guess..
And the bipod is just something to have, I guess it makes sense about getting in the way. |
