Default First morning limit

Little rough on the free hand shooting

got limit by 10:34 switched area ..missed a Ruff

Spruce on roads except flock of 7 (10 total)

Ruffs just off roads 3 but spooky

Skating down the roads with last nights rain

Games on now

nothing like grouse on a fresh bun

Enjoy

David

X100.
Been practicing on pigeons for a couple weeks now.
I can hit them mid flight 1/4 times.
Still can't decide on my arrow head choice...

As always, thanks for sharing your story and pictures speckle!

Awesome. Where'd you go out at? I tried to go out around Redwater to Legal last night but nowhere to hunt and didn't have time to drive 2 hours to my usual spot. Know of any good spots around the Edmonton area?

Nice Dave! I went out yesterday afternoon and got five ruffy's. Had to leave the area to go after some spruce hens.
Had the dog or should i say kid with me. She found 4 of the five birds. Fun stuff.

It is not a 30 round clip.. And there is not a magazine restriction for rimfires and upland game

Speck, looks like a great day

Thanks all

my clip is Rem 30 shot

here is the new 100 round for the 10/22
http://www.cabelas.ca/product/62029/...-drum-magazine

Rabbit hunting would be fun

some of these areas the rabbits killed every thing green some years

still do in some areas just like Australia

we have had a very good spring this year

bring on the grouse

should be a good year later

have fun every one

take a kid hunting

David
