Old dudes and old photos.

[mtnwrunner]

Came across this photo today.
"Long Range Hunting" before anyone knew what it was. Been doing it ever since.
1982, remington 700 bdl in 6mm remington, straight leupold 12x scope.
I'm still friends today with the other gentleman and we still shoot together at times throughout the year.
Let's post up some old huntin photos.

What are those critters? Just getting into LR shooting and still have a lot to learn.

The good old days and some photos are definitely priceless. I'll try and dig some up.

Early 80's. Even camo tape on the rifle and scope! Spray painted the leather sling too.

In case your wondering that’s a real Dwight Schuh hunting pack,!

So like 5 years ago was bowhunted in like 3 miles. Found a semi burried 1 gallon glass growler on a ridge that was in mint condition. Slipped it into the Kifaru cause it was BadAss with imprinted grapes & shit on the exterior , knew my wife would Love it. Googled the info printed on growler…..came back some fancy Wine company from the 80s ……wine jug pull must have been common back then
