That's messy..... you mean to tell me that all you found to pop a armadillo was a 260?

Looks like you hit him a little far back and may have lost that on-side shoulder meat...

I thought you only hunted at long range!

I thought you only hunted at long range! That is long range for a left handed savage shooter.

I never said how far away he was.
But if you want to try me I have a range we can play HORSE on. With your MOA SFP scope.

I'm good with that as long as there is none of that running stuff.

I don't know why people think we do lots of running in those types of rifle matches. Out of 50 stages you may have to hustle on one. Where cardio and being fit pays off is manuevering through barricades. Rarely any running. We have guys in their sixties shooting and they're damn good! They also have no desire to run. They're their to shoot, talk trash and tell jokes.

15' from your suppressed 260 is what I read..

I guess it was cheaper than 22 ammo.

I'm not so impressed with the "bullet performance" but I think the armadillo has (had, ever so briefly) his own opinion.
