I am getting my stuff ready for fall turkey season. I loaded up 15 rounds for my Model 700 Classic chambered in .221 Remington Fireball. It's a very good round for turkeys.
I will be going to the range to get it sighted in for 100 yards, although it's already very close as I shoot that rifle year around. I will use it for rainy days watching the fields.
I am also going to take my shotgun as I picked up some new ammo for it. Winchester Supreme #5 shot. I always traditionally used #4 Winchester Supremes. My gun really liked Winchester #4's and Federal #6 shot. So I am going to take all 3, including the new ammo, to see what it likes the best.
I'll have both guns ready for turkey, and will pick up either one depending on where I am going and what situation I will be hunting in.
After the turkey is down, the bow gets picked back up for a week long archery season here for bear. If that fails, the rifle gets pulled out and we got 3 long days of driving for bears up at camp in Tioga County PA.
I'm looking forward to it. While my deer is down, I got alot of hunting to do yet.
With the rainy day today, it would be a perfect day for turkeys...
