So this year I had to change a few things up. 1996-2014 I was a dog hunter in Jenkins County. I killed about 2 dump truck loads of deer with an 870 and an 11-87. If you have never done this type of hunting you have no idea how hard it is to kill a deer running wide open with buckshot on the ground standing in a jungle with about 40 yards of visibility max. So I switched back to stand hunting closer to home. The drive to Jenkins County was 200 miles one way. Hunting with my AR did not appeal to me and did not seem fair. I mean come on the deer is standing still so I wanted to add a challenge to the hunt. I decided to go with a single shot rifle. I bought another house last summer and with 2 mortages and the expense of equipping myself... stands, trail cams, etc.... I could not afford a T/C set up. I went through a few Handi rifles and just did not like the set up. To heavy and crappy triggers. So I found CVA rifles. I have an Apex in .308( waiting on 35 Whelen barrels to come in stock) and a Scout V2 in .243 and 300Blk "that is for my son". I will be picking up a 7mm08 and one the pistols before next season. The triggers are awesome and are all laser accurate. I pulled off two doubles one with the .308 and one with the 300Blk. There are a few other guys on here who are CVA fans. There guns are all great shooters also. Who else challenges themselves to one shot, archery only, blackpowder, or anything else to add more challenge to hunting. Not bashing anyone who hunts in any legal way. Just looking for other like minded folks.
