While I was in Texas I was able to help with a Texas Parks and Wildlife handgun hunting course.
I was able to meet four new handgun hunters, and Steve chose to use my rear-grip Kauger Arms Black Widow to shoot his first handgun deer.
The same 6.5 Creed Black Widow was used several days later by the new guys to hit steel at 400 and at 700 yards.
Night Hunting:
I was shooting my Non-Designated Rear-Grip Model 7, 22 Creedmoor with 80 grain ELD-M’s.
All of our shots at night were from the standing position, shooting off of tripods.
The other guys were using Rifles (22 Creedmoor, 308 Winchester, 223 Remington).
The first night out, I made a synchronized shot on two hogs (I didn’t use the carbon plate, but a direct connection to the tripod head for this shot) with another guy, then later that evening, I shot a red fox at a little over 200 yards.
My good friend and I made synchronized shot on two coyotes at 170 yards on a different evening. .
To do this at night, on demand, very fast shooting was the hunting highlight of my trip.
On another set-up, I shot a coyote at around 100 yards.
Hunting at night is so different, but it is also very enjoyable.
This trip was good in so many ways. Hanging out with a number of new handgun hunters, and making new friends was icing on the cake.
Again on my favorite shot, was the synchronized shooting where we each took a coyote at 170 yards at the same time.
Of course, both of us forgot to hit record!
