Hunted Tensas this afternoon with my 280 Ackley. We're on our extra two weeks of DMAP. Had 20 does all come out at 5, but my freezer is full and I'm looking for horns

all day every day.

Have to go to College Station for work trip 2nd week of June. Thought I would tack on a little hunting trip while I was there. Does anyone have rec's for a hog outfitter that would take me on a 1-day or 2-day thermal hog hunt that time of year? I'll have a Air BnB or hotel in CS/Bryan so that's not an issue. TIA

Issaquena county, 280 Ackley watching a long food plot. Woodies cutting up all over the place. Got an old cull 6pt walking around, today is his day.

Tensas, food plot on the river, 34 degrees
280 Ackley. Yesterday afternoon was deader than shite. Hope it's better today

Tensas, box stand over a food plot along the river.
280 Ackley, had a 9 pt on camera last night, hoping he shows up in the daylight chasing a doe

Want to cut cable and ditch Cox, but ATT doesn't have fiber available to my address. Is the ATT "Internet Air" worth it in BR or should I stay with Cox until ATT has fiber in my n'hood?

Have a traverse 30 Nosler, ridgeline 28 Nosler, and mesa 6.5 CM models, all purchased before the private equity sale. I hand load for them and they are very accurate rifles.

They sold to Ancor capital in 2019 just when word was spreading about them. They got super popular and ramped up production right as covid happened. They went from boutique gunmakers with experienced staff to high production with whoever they could get to run the machines. They changed things internally to increase profits. QA/QC went to dogshit, rifles weren't grouping, machining looked like shite in the chambers.

My buddy bought a mesa 6.5 CM in 2021 and it looked like they reamed the chamber with a shrimp fork. LOTS of people had to send back their rifles for warranty work and the company wasn't always the nicest about it. Go to any Cabelas or Scheels and you'll see plenty of CA rifles on the used rack from this period.

The internet hasn't been very kind to CA about it either. Hopefully they've been listening and got their shite together. Outdoor Life has an article saying the new Evoke is the shite, but I'm sure Ancor pays for ad space too.

With the Evoke at $1k and with CA's track record, get a Bergara.

I agree with you that I have better and more important things to worry about. My kid just told me they have a project due at school Friday...at 7:45pm just now. :rolleyes:

coonassholes lease some land next to me and put pics of grown men holding a spike and 4-pt on their FB pages like their proud of them. And saying shite like "we need food on our table!" All the other clubs around us have agreements for 8-pts or better. I'm trying to pool some resources and go to the land owner with a better lease deal to get the assholes out of there.
