    Predator Season 2025-2026

    I only use night vision for navigation. With the plethora of cheap thermal scopes available it makes no sense to purchase night vision or digital night vision. One reason I prefer the tube style scopes is that they use the same 30mm scope rings as a day scope and can be mounted lower than the...

    Predator Season 2025-2026

    Banner weekend and a personal best for us with eight dogs dropped. Five on Sat at two locations and three on Sunday at one location. Didn't recover the non photogenic third dog Sunday, but it dropped and was still for a good amount of time. When we went to retrieve it a heavy blood trail was...

    Recommendations for a Thermal Rifle Optic

    Like ATN, DNT optics are hit or miss and there's a reason most of the top optic sellers don't sell DNT. It's not worth the risk getting a lemon when there are so many quality and tested thermal optics out there to choose from. SJC

    Predator Season 2025-2026

    The second dog I got in woods that were just logged about an hours drive north. The leaves made it a quick and challenging shot, but the 20-250 is a laser beam and I put it right in it's ear. SJC https://youtube.com/shorts/iYucgoUC3_4

    Predator Season 2025-2026

    After dealing with the non cooperating dogs I went back to the cabin and took a little siesta. I got up and went cruising around when I spotted two dogs in a field I could hunt. Unfortunately after the shot my rifle jammed as my elbow hit the side of the UTV causing me to short stroke the bolt...

    Predator Season 2025-2026

    Well my season started off slow being it was so hot and bright with the Harvest moon. It got luke warm as the temps cooled and Harvest moon went away and I was able to drop two females. Before that happened I was dealing with major heartbreak as dogs were showing up in places I couldn't shoot...

    Recommendations for a Thermal Rifle Optic

    I would stay away from scopes using proprietary batteries and anything under 384 resolution. The RIX storm S3 is a great optic. SJC

    Predator Season 2025-2026

    Great job Mr JZ. I only put down a nusience fox after four long nights of coyote hunting. I have plenty on camera so I know they're out there. Hopefully the change in temp and moon will have an effect on the coyote in my area. SJC

    My dog doesn't like skunks, but they do a great job of cleaning up the bodies. As long as they keep their distance they won't end up in the crosshairs. SJC https://youtube.com/shorts/Jq8O62UEXO0

    Now the little mus are wandering about. This one was sitting on a grape vine and until it moved I thought it was a lantern fly cluster. Big or small it has to go. SJC https://youtube.com/shorts/PSfaAuel-Q0

    This is the last of the adult mice I've seen running around. Full size means a big target. SJC https://youtube.com/shorts/AV0cHTLR7lw

    Almost time to take the S60R off the PCP and get it ready for the real thing Oct 1st. I don't think the mus will be willing to sacrifice themselves to the 256 res scope that usually tops the PCP ! This mus was a crafty little bugger, but a little peanut butter exposed the chink in the armor. SJC...
