Having a good day at my hunting spot, other than a bear came back and pulled my feeders off the trees.
Get some range time in with the ladies anyways.

very nice looking!
Are you getting bigger bore for the bear, or just going to tickle it with what you've got?

Thanks!
I've got a 12ga loaded but not chambered with alternating slugs and 00 Buckshot. (not pictured but not planning on using it unless its me or him/her)

Yeah it is, shooting with the LW poly in .22. Using the slug liner in .25 in the impact and it loves the Baracuda hunter extreme very much, mainly shot the MP molds slugs I cast though in .22 and .25 and they were doing quite well. Was able to hit 1/1.5 inch spinners with them and smashing them, thats the extent of my range there.
Shot some of the varmint knocker in 28gr and they did spectacular hitting hard too.

And thanks everyone else, well pretty disappointed that after i moved places from where the feeders are and built a new one I came this morning to see them ripped off the tree and all the seed gone again.
I have an idea where I basically make the feeders a porcupine of 3 inch screws screwed from the back or just cover it in plywood that's been pre screwed. Do that basically all over it, I doubt the squirrels will mind much but it wont be so enticing to the bear if everywhere he touches it its like a porcupine. At work they finished screwing off the floor and had lots of strips of 3 inch coated screws in plastic strips left over and were getting thrown out so I can use those. Wont cost anything but time, what do you guys think of my devious plan? I would also mount the feeder in probably 4 places to a tree with 2x4 thats been given the same porcupine treatment.

Sounds like it would work, everything kinda leaves porcupines alone. Certainly worth a try.
