Thread: 1st Crow With RRA!!

  1. #1

    Talking 1st Crow With RRA!!

    Hey I went to a farm near me and spent an hour or so lookin' for a crow or something to shoot with my new toy!

    Didn't see anything at all came home put the dog on his cable and signed online. When I went back outside to let the dog in guess who was sittin' in my field about 100 yards away. Heckle or maybe Jeckle not sure which! LOL!

    Anyway two times I've pulled the trigger on critters with the RRA and twice stuff has died!! This rifle does double duty as a huntin' rifle and a great self defense rifle also. Especially if ya got about a dozen or so 30 round mags for her!

    The 69 grain SMK went straight through him without much to do not anything like the 50 grain blitz which explodes em. Oh well it's a coyote load anyhow the crow was just in the wrong place at the wrong time! I just ordered 500 65 grain Sierra Game King BTs!

    They should do a little better job on game. So far I'm plum tickled to death with the RRA or should I say they are tickled to death! LOL!!

    How did you prepare the crow? I mean, how did you cook it?

    Yes, I am wondering that also, Surely you do not just go around killing things for no reason ?

My answer to the former is, I once thought idealistically that I would live like the Native Americans and not waste anything. The first time I killed a rat ended that nonsense. Now, I don’t try to eat everything I kill and I don’t apologize for it either.

    Just curious. Was that crow a predator?

    I have eaten crow a time or two before.Oh wait not that kind of crow.

    There is nothing ethical, or in the sport of fair chase in dropping a crow at about a hundred yards.The last part of your name speaks volumes.

    Thank you, Stargazer, I couldn't find the words when I first responded, but you did quite well.

    This crow was taken at approximately 100 yards with a heavy wind!

    Notice the feathers on the birds breast the wind was so strong

    I had to lay the rifle on the wing to get the pic!

    Ok, Ok before you go gettin' all sappy on me although they are cute little fellers!

    Chipmunks can be a nuisance especially if you have an all wood house like my buddy does.

    Between the woodpeckers and the small mouse like critters his house is in danger

    so we thin them out! We won't kill em all trust me the woods are full of them!

    2nd shot wasn't necessary? YA THINK???? I dunno, those chipmunks are a tough little nuisance, you only put one through it's lungs it might have had enough left in it to come at you with those massive claws and huge teeth...no wait, that's bears. Well, I can see where it's a clear cut case of self-defence, after all, they are a nuisance.

    Sounds like an unnecessary kill. You can recycle plastic bottles and they will explode if filled with water and shot with a big enough round.

    Killing for fun makes for bad Karma.

    I thought crows were good luck?

    I was thinking he should maybe change his handle to "CrowKiller" and then there's this reservation out in Wyoming I think it is.....ah, never mind.
