Title: My new yote popper
Post by: possumal on February 01, 2009, 09:49:36 AM
I have just put together a T/C Encore Pro Hunter in 204 Ruger, with a Bushnell Banner 6 x 18 Dusk & Dawn scope. It ought to be a shooter, will post results later when I have had a chance to work on a load or two for it.  I felt like it was time to give these big old Kaintucky yotes a sporting chance with just one shot (lol) :laf: :laf:.  Here are a few pictures for you:

Al that is one SWEAT looking rifle and yes make sure you post your shooting results with lots of pictures.

Only problem I see with it is it has a stock for a right handed shooter.  :biggrin:

That's a nice rifle.  Some of the guys at our rifle club can fire a shot, break that thing open, reload from the stock cartridge holder like the one in your picture, and fire again just about as fast as you can work a bolt gun!!  Some of them hold a couple cartridges in thier left hand to speed thing up even more!

I'm leaning that way for sure Frog.  :biggrin: If it came with a collapsable stock, I'd already had it.  :sneer:
