First thing that I did when I got out there on the state land was take a shot to see where I was hitting and it's way more accurate than I'll ever be when hunting. I forgot to bring any of my pin up targets but I'll bring some the next time. I've still got a couple of printed up target sheets that I haven't glued to card stock yet plus about 16 pinup targets all cut and ready to go. Anyway I did get one chipper while I was out there, didn't see a single tree squirrel at all, I was late to gate on this hunt.

Nice Wayne.....good shooting on both of them Chippers. I'm liking those Sentry rifles you got.
Well... maybe..."Late to the Gate... but.... Better Late than Never" ! I am glad that you could get out again.
You did another good job on the Video, it was sure enjoyable.
The woods around here, seem to be a lot thicker than what I see in your Video's Around here they can be really hard to walk thru in places.
It seems to me we have more ground foliage. Buckthorn, Sumac & Vines are growing all over under the Oaks, Ash and Pines. Lots of Basswood trees too. "Waite a Minute Vines" are what I call those nasty vines. They are as bad as the Buckthorns are.
I'll be standing by for your next post. Happy Hunting !
Best Wishes - Tom

if it ain't Bluegrass, it ain't worth lisn'n to . . .
good shootin Wayne and thanks for the another video that's very well done
i have a 705 on order and is a couple weeks out according to Mr. Melick. my question is . . . i have a bunch of wheel weight lead - some of it is the old material and some is the new material - would this make for good slugs for the 705 or would it be too hard ??

Thanks Tom, Chuck and Dave !!! Chuck wheel weights are a bad idea for small caliber airguns, I personally only use pure lead myself.

Thanks Zed !!! I doubt I'll ever see them gone from the state land, they're everywhere.
