What did you WITH your Ram this weekend

[HSKR R/T]

Heavier tow for it

 

[HSKR R/T]

Averaged 9.8mpg. about 500 total miles. 150 of that with an empty trailer into a slight headwind. Actually got worse fuel mileage with an empty trailer. 2nd load was heavier than the first, it loaded better, so not as much squat

stopped out to hunting grounds...chkd plots and apple trees

 

[SpeedyV]

Wrapped up a 1,200-mile drive this afternoon. Averaged about 18 mpg (hand calculated) while running 80 mph most of the time - not towing but carrying close to max payload. Another smooth ride.

Took the neighbor's boat out and did some fishing. Had a blast, caught some fish, no keepers but a lot of small ones and a few decent drum as well. The Back Country did great pulling the Carolina Skiff 21LS to and from the boat ramp.

 

[Wild Bill]

Camping at the ocean for 8 days in Harrington Maine...

 

[N0cturnal]

Took it to the beach.

 

[HSKR R/T]

Took home a Top 22 award at the local Operation 22 Til Freedom car show today. Was a wet day and fought drizzle/rain all day. They still had over 120 cars registered.

Avg. mileage (400 miles each way) 80% two-lane backroads with many 6% uphills and, stiff headwind: 12 MPG
Avg. speed: 70 MPH - up to 90 MPH when "safely" passing semi-trucks and other folks towing stuff.

I mean, if you have to bait your food in, how good of a hunter are you?

Well….. you think hunting deer with a 9mm is fine, so I know what kind of hunter you are.

My buddy does the same thing on his hunting properties.
I always joke with him about hunting in his petting zoo.
It sure seems like cheating.

I don't hunt deer with a 9mm. Not sure where you got that from.

I know you use a 243.…
You said 9mm is fine, I will try to dig it up.

 

[Ramroo]

If Nebraska allowed it, I would use my 9mm Carbine for deer, but they don't allow pistol rounds for wild game hunting.

That was your comment on the scopes thread.

Obviously not taking 100yd+ shots with it. Would be no different than shotgun slug or muzzle loader for range. You probably have no issues with either of those for hunting.

9mm is ridiculous for deer hunting. Anyone arguing that has no respect or regard for ethically and humanely killing a deer.

Some use shotgun where no rifles are allowed.

Muzzleloaders are fine.

Arguing that a 9mm is the same as shotgun or muzzleloader at range is also ridiculous.
ANY range ballistics along with terminal ballistics of 9mm, vs shotgun or muzzleloader is not even remotely close.

You said you would use 9mm if allowed in Nebraska.… and you are questioning what kind of hunter I am. They are not legal in Nebraska for a very good reason, stop people like you from using them.

Many hunters using deer rounds in high power rifles don't humanely kill the deer as they don't get a critical hit first shot and have to track the deer. Every deer I have shot has dropped instantly with one shot. Only one required a follow up shot, but they weren't running anywhere.

And anyone baiting game in order to get a shot sure as hell doesn't care about ethicslly hunting. So don't try to give me that lecture.
