Utah Upland opener was a success! RIP cottontails...

[AaronKrebs]

I found a honey hole for cottontails and have been keeping tabs on it for months, just waiting for the season to open. I left home at 4am, Labor Day. I saw a few dozen. Came home with 5. The Taipan .25 never lets me down. What a good day!

Excellent photo! Nice work on the hunt and the framing.

What a great picture. For me, most grip and grins never convey the emotion of being there. This one does.

That's awesome shooting with your Vet and a nice photo!

This was my first taste of rabbit. My daughter loves squirrel stew. I assume its more for playing cook than savoring the flavor. It's just OK to me. So I battered and fried the rabbit! It was great!

I've heard a lot of good things about those Taipan rilfes. May have to add one to my collection!

Hell yeah nice to see another Utahn around here. Nice gun!

It's my most useful rifle. Predictable out to 90 yards. Great truck gun. Plenty of power. Has a good pitch with the original shroud, so no need to add a moderator if you want to keep it compact. True anti-double-feed. I could go on. The Taipan is just so practical!

Yeah I’m gonna get one eventually. My Barra 250z is one of the best small caliber guns I’ve ever shot, including powder burners. But thats because I’ve put a lot of work into tuning it. It is lights out to 125y.

My karma EQ .30 is my new coyote gun. I’m still working on the right slug tune for it and I have some mods coming for it so I’m pretty excited about it.

If you’re ever in the cedar/saint George area and wanna go shooting hit me up.
