Thanks for watching Buddy and it makes you feel better after a big purchase for it to work out the way you want too im super happy with it for sure

Thank you brother I appreciate it. Gonna try to get some videos on getting a deer with this. I'm just not good at self filming and shooting most my hunting is walking and stalking in lake bottoms and swamps so when I see one it all happens so quick. But I did order me a elevate hang on stand gonna try to get better at carrying in stands and setting up to get a little higher and wait a little longer

Thank you I almost got a shot on a decent 8 point the other day. It was windy wand I was just walking slow thru the woods seen him but it was to many small trees between me and him and couldn't get a clear shot. I'm dying to get a deer with this new rifle. Got a decent 6 point with 270 this year and a doe with my 357 mag rifle. So it's been a decent season but want another badly lol

@@muzzleblast88 Congratulations. Been a tough year here. I usually have a couple or three doe with bow before gun season and only harvested one. Trying to help my teen son get his first compound harvest and we haven't been successful thus far. Still at it late season.

Thank you for subbing I appreciate that I don't have nice cameras or know how to edit just try to make simple videos . I live in West Tennessee. We got a lot of does and some bucks but I never see the bucks lol

Thank you brother. How you been buddy ?

Hey, I'm doing well. Can't believe this year is almost over but it's been a good one for me. Looking forward to 2024 and hopefully adding some more Rugers to the collection. 😁 I hope you and your family are doing well and have a great holiday season!

Thank you jimmy

What deer rifle you use?

@muzzleblast88 weatherby vanguard weatherguard bronze. Cost enough to be built well and rugged. But don't cost so much I don't wana use it in the brush n rain n snow ect Great ballance of cost and usability. I couldn't be happier

I had that problem with a 44 mag carbine I use to hunt with. Shot a doe in the shoulder and look like a grenade hit that one side. U can stick your fist in the hole but didnt penetrate died from so much blood loss ran couple hundred yards

You could have bought a .270 and got the same ballistics with ammo that’s half the price.

@@jti2007 I know it if I coulda found one one of the main reasons went with 6.5

I wished they made more models of the Hawkeye myself it's one of my favorite platforms. And so far I've had no issues or jams. Got two deer with it so far. Love taking it hunting. And with gloves on and it was freezing both times after the shot on the deer fed perfectly. It's not the smoothest action but it works. The rifle is more accurate than I ever could be for sure I love it so much I stuck the Ruger Hawkeye compact 7mm-08 in layaway

@@muzzleblast88 that’s my thoughts exactly as well, they need to come out with a few new models of it to gain people’s interest. They’ve essentially done nothing with their lineup of Hawkeyes in the last 10-15 years other than offer slightly different stock colors/configurations. It’s a shame I couldn’t tell you the last time I saw one on the rack at a gun shop. I’m glad you like it, I have a few of them I just wasn’t sure how the prc fed in one, I’ll be getting one soon!
