hey ed

[dave2288]

you always use a lot of the same guns for hunts...why don't you use your 1250, or winchester?  are they not as good, or just too heavy?


i know jeff also uses a lot of the same guns*when he says he goes to the gun rack for one gun, but ends up takin either the panther or talon, lol....they call to him*

I have several babies setup for night hunts, the CFX  and the B26 Sporter as of right now. The 1250 is almost finished up with a tune, odd and ends and will be my big game hunter so to speak for up north this winter. My buddy has got several cabins on thirty acres of land and the area is teaming with foxes and bobcat's, the 1250 will be setup for night hunts by then.:) I did plan on taking the RWS 34 out for a nutter hunt in the morning and if you look back in my ALBUM the winchester has taken some nutters and the TAC1.22 has many rabbit's under her belt as does the ShadowSport. I really wanna get the Quest 1000 out, shes scoped and I gave her a tune right out of the box. She still needs a few rounds of lead through her to season the barrel. My B26-2 is a hunter too and shes due to get out and thank's for reminding me, gess I better spread the love with my babies, don't want them to think that I've forgotten about them. The CFX.22 with all the extra's on her is almost as heavy as the 1250 but I never minded a shooter with some heft hehehe. Ed

[dave2288]

no problem ed...how do i view your album?  i def. missed the winchester hunt stories.  its also been a while since i saw your viper in wood out...shes a nice looker, too.  i also miss lookin at your tactical looking b3 next to squirrels.

what do you plan on taking with the 1250?

absolutely LOVE your stories, ed!  keep em up!

I have news for you Dave. Ed can hit a nutter at 40 yards by just pointing his finger at it...:)

Gene

I agree Gene,,,,,, give Ed a rubber band and a paper clip and he'd come home with enough dinner for him, the Mrs. and guests  :)

Jeff

[Timmyj1959@yahoo.com]

Yeppers,,,, just like Jeff said!! Ed is a true hunter fer shure!! Tim.

[only1harry]

No need for rubberband and paper clip.  Ed buys them from a local guy along with nail polish.  He 's learned all of Tim's tricks  :-)
Actually he just uses a fishing line and reels them in :)

Com'on Ed, lets see all those other guns!!  hehe.  I 've only seen maybe half of them in the last 12-13 months.

I just point it in the general direction guys, my baby does all the rest hehehe but when I'm punching paper to zero em in I draw varmint heads on a sheetof paper with a black Sharpie and I make them smaller then life size so at thirty yards I really have to focus to get it in the sweetspot.:) Harry I'll get some pic's of my babies in my gunroom/2nd airgunshop, my other shop is outside where I have the lathe, drill press etc., will have to fire up the heat in it real soon. Ed

[dave2288]

hey, ed, how does your powerline shoot?  what kind of numbers do you get with it?  mine is only lube tuned(plastic stock), and its way too loud for me to use even after i tried to smooth it out(using r sauer's guide)...much easier to cock though...i'm gonna get it proffesionally tuned in a few months(and do a lot more...actually, in a little over a year, you should be seeing it for a camo job...after i get a sporter stock from s. corcoran...then the whole thing is goin to ya for a winter camo, along with a scope...i want the whole gun to blend in).

Dave

[shadow]

Send the stock when your ready buddy, I'll get it winterized nicely for you.:) My Powerline shoot's real nice after the tune, smooth cocking and a nice solid thunk when shot. Still has got a little kick to her and chrony says high 800's and at 30yrds she makes a nice varmin killing pattern. I have no vibration from her now but I did cut the but pad off and cleared out a area in the stock and filled it with memory foam, should be in hunting form shortly but want to make sure before I turn her loose on live game. Ed

[dave2288]

what else are you gonna do with her?

Dave

[shadow]

I'm sketching out some idea's for a urban camo to put the black stock to use.:) Ed

[dave2288]

I DIDN"T KNOW YOU DO URBAN CAMO!  ...ed, i feel like this is the beginning of a lot of camo-ing for my guns upstairs...you really made my day just now when i read that.

Dave

[shadow]

I cover it all buddy, can take you from the city to the woods and I also do Desert. The urban camo is also useful for night hunting with shadows of light and dark, a bloch camo pattern or stripped urban. Ed

[dave2288]

ed, i looked in your album...only one pic of the 1250, and one of the winchester.  also, i miss your tac1...and i absolutely LOVE your shadow winter stock...you should just post a pic of all of your guns saying what each is.
