Re: Thinning the herd/coyotes

Thanks AR,

Shot them from a shooting house on my farm. Mixture of crops and CRP ground. See picture from house. Different rifle. Caught them passing through/hunting in the morning.

The rifle I used is a 6.5 x 47 Lapua built by APA. Surgeon action, Manners stock, SWR suppressor and 5 x 25 S & B scope. 130 Berger VLDs.

Sweet shooting and pix!

I did something similar...kinda, built an 8x12 shooting deck off the hayloft of my barn. I like that long rail protector, is that a couple pairs of pants legs sewn together with filler? Thats cool, have to see if the good lady can knock something up for me like that.

Keep whacking them dogs, freeloading bastaards!

Cheers,
SB
 
Re: Thinning the herd/coyotes

Southbreeze,

The bag to the right of the rifle is in a sled I built out of finished oak 1xs. They slide back and forth over the sawmill 2x4s I built the house out of. The sandbags are old pantlegs cut to length. You turn them inside out, sew one end closed and the other closed except for aprx. 1 1/2". Turn them back right side out, fill with sand through a big funnel and hand sew the last 1 1/2" closed and you have a redneck sand bag!

Dude, that's just sweet! Cool idea and yet another example of red neck ingenuity. Thanks for the lowdoown on the construction.

Nice looking iron as well, what can is that? For my tight work I use an SRT camp 45 integral suppressed and longer range is a halo equiped M4.

Cheers,
Breeze
