A little rusty....

[Bob Rankin]

I’m a tad rusty, but I’m just starting to warm up. Made it out for a few stands this morning to help out some local farmers. I went 1 for 2 and saw 9. I’ll give it a few days break, then get after a group that have been killing Elk calves.

Whatcha shooting? Asking for a friend...

Whatcha shooting? Asking for a friend...

This rifle is a 6.5 Creedmor, shooting 140 grain ELDM’s. Surprisingly it punched right through at 115 yards. Not a drop of blood, hell... I couldn’t even find an entrance or exit wound.

Is there any fur on them that could be used for tying or is it too soft?

There guard hairs Dyed in purple is something I use as an under wing on muddlers.

Bob, do you harvest the pelts? Have you had any tanned?

I harvest them when they are in good shape. I haven’t tanned any though. A guy can only have so many hobbies I may try one of these days.

I bet the tails would make great wing material or some great clousers (red foxes clouser). The color looks similar to a red fox tail.

Bob
Do you sport a man bun to go along with that Creedmoor?

 

[Bob Rankin]

Really.....?

Really...?

Really...?

There seems to be a large faction of the new Creedmoor club that is of the man bun type.
I'm joking, of course, but this is the joke on a hunt forum I visit regularly.

 

[Bob Rankin]

Well... No man bun on this guy. In fact, no hair up there at all. I’ve owned and shot all kinds of calibers of rifles, and its just plain hard to complain about what a 6.5 can do. To each there own.
