I know you know, but yes it does LB. That upper is a 25 WSSM that Dan build up. Got it tuned up with some 100gr bullets as deer season starts here on the 22nd.

Speaking of uppers LOL.
Got this rifle from GAP just before we went to TX. Just sighted it in down there. Not really a night time coyote gun, so it did not see any action.
This is the first 5 shot group shot after I got home. 700 action 26 in. Lilja barrel 17 Fireball 100 yards

.177 is a pellet diameter .172 is the bullet diameter thus you should deduct .172 from your outside spread rather than .177

...which opens his wallet group to a very modest .344, right? Imagine, trying to impress the Peanut gallery with a .339" group!

LOL it is an inside joke inspired by recent events Leonard. Sorry.
Randy and the rest of the thugs were on chat the other night at the Midwest board. When a thread popped up on PM about bobcats. Randy, decided to entertain everyone on chat and posted that cats don’t smell any better than people do on the thread at PM. Then back to chat he goes and starts a betting pool on who would be the first to correct him in his misguided ways. Randy would have won as I understand it but everyone was surprised at the venomous attack that came from a dark horse. LOL I am not sure how all the contestants placed?
Good hunting.

Okay, I made one of my infrequent trips to PM INC. and read about bobcats and the shit stirers.
I'm afraid I have to agree with the WY guy. I know that a cat doesn't want to circle downwind, but that doesn't meran he cannot smell a human; if he just happens to approach from that direction.
A bobcat doesn't think you can harm him with anything, so why would he be afraid if he smells man? That's the exact opposite of a coyote who may not know, but he isn't taking any chances. A cat sits there, knows you are where you are, and doesn't think you can see him or doesn't understand why you might want to harm him? It's complicated, but I know damned well that a bobcat can smell me, downwind. Is his semse of smell not as good as a coyote? My guess is it is not. But, it's good enough to detect your stinky ass from downwind.
And, Geordie! Holy cow, man! You misspelled at least one word; twice! Zero credibility. lol
Good hunting. LB

LOL Look who’s talking!! LOL The forest is not behind the trees Leonard. Randy was just jacking people around with the comment that cats smell no better than people do. I am sure a few pages of testimonials, tutorials and hot links to prove him wrong will entertain us for the next day or two. Ya just got to run with it. LOL
Good hunting.

Snow in Nebraska and rain in Missouri. I guess it goes without saying that those of us who work outside got bored with just circling the trees. LOL

L: "Of course, I was exaggerating about returning to check in four hours early (just like you have been doing) and of course, you jumped all over it. I know very well the rewards in making every stand count."
I know where you are coming from.
This is the problem with internet forums, one person would read your statement above ("just like you have been doing") to refer to checking in 4 hours early while others would read it as a reference to exaggerating. I'm sure Leonard was referring to exaggerating because the only time I have ever checked in early to a contest was during high winds and blowing snow that made it virtually impossible to call. Just wanted to clarify a potential misunderstanding with the readers.
Yeh Leonard, I know that taking a good number of bobcats is no easy feat even in an area with a lot of cats. First it would require finding a good area with lots of cats which would be a skill in itself plus the patience that would be required to to get the killing shot but cats are still cats. Of course night calling being different than day. Bobcats are not nearly as responsive as most coyotes due to their lazy and complacent behavior which in itself makes them difficult. They are slow to approach and slow to leave. Your description of cats in your recent post is consistant with my observations.
Cats can smell a lot better than people give them credit for, they simply don't react to those odors in the same manner as coyotes as you pointed out. I also realize that Randy Shaw and/or Q were just razzing some of the egos on the other forum with their comments and not necessarily being serious.
Nothing like picking on those who think they know more than they actually know. LOL!

Kevin, once you click on "Image" you have to put the code between the brackets that you have previously uploaded to a hosting site.
Once upon a time, we never saw white tips in Nevada, now they are common. Wonder why?
Good hunting. LB

I believe I was made an honorary member of the GSPHA a few years ago, my membership probably run out lol. Because of my operation I'd think Jan would be to early, but maybe next year. I'm not that far from Idaho. I think I housed a couple of the GSPHA members at my motel down in NM as they went hunting with one of the ex winners of the World hunt. Geezzz, and I never got to go hunting with them that time. Yes, I am interested in the state hunt up in Elko for next year. Sounds like fun, plus I'd get to meet some of the local pros. Thanks Kevin
