Well, got up out over the weekend!
Man, all that rain grew the fields up over a foot higher than we left them!!!
Trying to get any solo video woulda been a fool's errand, so I took a walk with Daisy Flame. Grabbed my trusty tripod and the Geovids, and headed for a stroll down the tractor path...
Surprisingly, the rolling field betrayed a brown head popping up over knee high grass! Set the tripod up, locked the .223AI in and got ready...
That sucker took one in the back of the brain bucket @ 100 yds...easy chip shot. And look at how tall the grass is! Took me longer to find that chuck in the grass, than it did to shoot it...
As I was high-steppin' it back to the path, noticed a second coconut bean tucked in the bladed green jungle. This one about 150yds. Same exact damage from the 75Amax as the first few, makes a nice exit hole! And yep, still fireforming...
Called it a day right there, and headed back for supper with the neighbors. Drove back to the farm thru that pretty rolling country with a cigar hangin' from the corner of a big grin...truly blessed to have days like these! And even more blessed for the kindness & grace of good friends...
Videos next time, I promise!
P.S.
In case you noticed, swapped a 5-25x56 on top of Daisy Flame, might shoot some matches with that rifle this summer. Got a hummer of a load with formed brass, just need to chrono it...
