[QUOTE="huntinBuddy62, post: 1127155, member: 92601"] It really was alot of fun, thanks to my very thoughtful son, Branten. When he said he took me, he means it; he paid for practically all of it after a few years of planning and saving. (Wow!) He told me of his plans almost two years ago and I scrimped, scrapped (literally) and saved and finally got a proper long-range rig: Savage Model 10 Predator Hunter in 6.5 Creedmoor with a Vortex Viper PST. What a tack-driver it turned out to be! After teaching him to shoot years ago, Brant taught me some of the finer points of L.R. prone shooting and handloading. The obvious side benefit being more time together. I love how it all came together on this trip. We hunted and shot well,and our equipment performed excellently. My Hornady 129 SSTs were horribly brutal and his 140 A-Maxes did no favors. By the way, I didn't know the Opening Day mishap resulted in a break until a few days ago, just that it hurt. But with everything Branten did for me, I wasn't even considering giving up the hunt. I love him too much to let him down like that. I'm glad I could prove him to be a good coach: he does get half the credit on my kills. [/QUOTE]
