 Yup.

Passthru, any bow would have a hard time competing with a rifle, but a Mathews has a hard time competing with a real bow.

That's very nice. I need to get around to painting/coating mine at some point.

thanks, the stock was painted by Manners, it is an MSC-T
I changed the scope out (again) on the 280AI last night.
The 3-12x56 just felt too top heavy..
I put on my S&B 1.5-6 and it handles much better..
The glass is so good I can easily nail clay pidgeons at 500 yards with it..

Those S&B scopes are nice, a good friend has a fixed 6 or 8 power that is amazing.

you afraid of running out of ammo while engaging your targets? Those are simply some pictures I had in Photobucket. I have legal-capacity magazines. Those rifles are used for a number of pursuits; hunting is just one. They are all legal in Texas. This aint yankee/yuppie land Jackie.

What load are you running? Not sure if that was directed at me, but if it was... Chad @ Dallas Reloads actually has it right now. He's going to work up some magic with 100gr TTSX.
