2506 come to life with 100gr nolser bts

man do i love this rifle.

just yesterday i got a batch of loads brewd for hunting this weekend.

took her out today well and yesterday to.

did some hiking in the lower foothills and came across some does and alittle forked horned buck. definatly no shooters but that gives me hope for tommmorrow

anyways the load was tested on a coyote at about 150yds. well within range for most all loads fired from a larger centerfire to blow the coyote aprt.

coyote was broad side looking at me. i was laying over bipods with a bead on his internals. this is were i preach about the 100gr balistic tip as dual purpose all around varmit deer getter.

i squeezed off a rd knowing full well i couldnt miss. recoil is so low and i was on 4.5power. that i saw full impact a mushroom cloud of dust on the dogs shoulder i also through the scope saw the dog flop over dead in its track not one single movement.

man i love this rifle. paced down the ridge to just shy of 150. flopped the dog over off the exit side to find that the bullet hand exited leaveing a hole smaller than my pinky. but get this. i could see the blood splatterd for 10yds, kinda cool.

the ruger rifle and 2506 are one heck of pair. also give the bipod and varix III one heck of a thumbs up.

i have so much confidence in the set up. we will see a deer before monday come sunday the little bucks are shooters. sundays the last day to hunt.
