    AEA My ultimate deer rifle

    Great looking rig. What’s your ethical range for deer sized game?

    Airgun deer hunting in WI is legal as of 03-15-24

    Yes we will have to wait and see what the gun requirements are. Small game mammals and pests hunting with airgun and air bows has been legal in WI for many many years. Will hopefully harvest my first airgun deer in a few months. November.

    Airgun deer hunting in WI is legal as of 03-15-24

    Just thought I would share that wi passed a bill to allow all big game to to hunted with airguns. Caliber and energy limits have yet to be determined.

    Ground Snowshoe tacos.

    Yes the Snowshoes also just slowly move off. They are confident in their ability to outrun predators. Seem to work well for them unless the predator has a airgun. :)

    Ground Snowshoe tacos.

    It’s closer to beef or pork. Hares are more of a red meat. Cottontails have a white meat. There is a different texture than beef. But I’m going to play around with the grind size and grind it 3/4 frozen. This should help bring it closer to beef. But I’m not to worried about it. I don’t mind my...

    Ground Snowshoe tacos.

    Another productive outing for hares. These three were shot walking the logging roads on public land. Both my father in law and son spotted hares, in the pic. The hares are starting to change, still white but loosing a lot of fur when handling them. Sent these three into the grinder. It’s not...

    Banner day for snow shoe hare.

    6 was the max for one spot/drive. Then move to the next spot of cover. If you find one there are normally others within a few 100yards.

    Banner day for snow shoe hare.

    A springer would have worked well. The PCP was handy for follow up shots and ease of use for the kids. I need to get me a good springer. It does add a little something to a hunt.

    Banner day for snow shoe hare.

    Yes we did! Hares are a great way to start the kids off. Easy to see once you know where to look and they don’t jump from tree top to tree top. Lol

    Banner day for snow shoe hare.

    Yes, the boys cleaned them up. They were going to try to tan the hides too.

    Banner day for snow shoe hare.

    Had a very productive hunt this am. Got together with my brother in law and his two sons. Did a few “drives” more of a slow push through productive Aspen/poplar slashes. And some spot and stalk off the sand roads in the pine plantations. It’s a up year for hares around me. That and the unusual...

    Bushy Tails for Dinner

    Good tip on aging the meat. I do the same with hares. Makes a big difference.

    Any guns you regret buying"

    I think it was a Nova. Got it to have a beater gun to let friends shoot. Ended up not liking how blocky it was. It shot fine out to 50 yards and got more shots per fill than the huntsman. Sold it and got a PP 750 when they first came out. That’s been a great little gun. And better suited for...

    [WTB] A stock for my PP750

    The stops on my factory rod style stock broke. Im looking for any suitable replacement. Just as long as I am able to still use the gun as a rifle. Thanks

    Gun, Platform, Caliber, & Shot Placement Choice.

    Nice shot. I have been going low power these last few weeks also. I had forgotten what 10-12 fpe could do with the right shot placement.
