Re: Id rather have a 243

The kids are doing fine. Justin is 11 and Jared is 9. I have attached some pics of them from a while back prairie dog, er, I mean cow pie hunting. They had more fun shooting the fresh pies and watching them explode than shooting pdogs. Oh, by the way, 45-70 works good for bunnies too.

Jimmy,

when the kids ask me what over kill means, I show them that picture then compare side by side, a 22LR. to a 45-70.

and when they ask me why, I say because hes nuttier then a squirrel turd!

Speaking of kids, hows the boys doing?

Poor me still haven't gotten my shooting iron.. The little lady keeps me broke.. One of these days. I'll lock on the Savage only in 223.. I have read some good things about the new weatherby but don't know anyone who has one..
