If there's a dot on it, you know I've pulled the trigger 8-)

Tried to get it zeroed with the scope down the hall way, should be indicative of where I was aiming :liar:

So do I :cry: Today was a hunt of epic proportions and major fails on many parts. The first was hunting the rain for almost 10 hours at 5 degrees with snow clouds above me. The second was almost tipping a quad bike in a 4WD rut. The third was watching my R93 in 416 fall off at the same time and dissapear into the mud. The fourth was my buddy losing his $600 GPS. The fifth was watching a guy slide backwards 30m and smash his hilux into a tree. The sixth was watch at least four stags on the GPS that didn't run past. The seventh was my mate missing a stag from 6m in thick ferns.

Shotkam survived its dunking and its still functional. I've swapped it back to the 20G for more sedate hunting tomorrow :lol:

Sometimes that is the way it goes and goes and goes, then things break your way and it’s all good again. Hope that is tomorrow for you.

I believe there isn't much scarier than slipping backwards down a hill in angel gear waiting for the stop or the end.
