Took 2nd place for the 3 heaviest foxes and this fox took 1st for heaviest fox. Not a large contest 10 teams but still a decent pot benefiting a local church. He didn't look that big up close until we weighed him. It was awesome to have Corey out with us with Hog Snyper and even got him on his firest every turkey Sunday morning.

Good job in the contest.
Quick question, is that rig of stuff (tactacam and other stuff) hanging off the barrel something that comes off and goes on with every "sit" or when you transport the weapon?
Reason I ask, is depending on where that rig sits on the barrel it may change the POI significantly based on the change in harmonics of the barrel. Would be much better to have that attached to the stock or something other than the barrel.

But a very valid point.. Typically I have picatinny mounts on my other rifles that I don't have to mount to the barrel. But also with the lands we were hunting I would not have over a 100 yard shot and I tested it with the mount son and off and did not change the POI. Now if I had to take longer shots i am sure it could easily change.
