Hey I went to a farm near me and spent an hour or so lookin' for a crow or something to shoot with my new toy!
Didn't see anything at all came home put the dog on his cable and signed online. When I went back outside to let the dog in guess who was sittin' in my field about 100 yards away. Heckle or maybe Jeckle not sure which! LOL!
Anyway two times I've pulled the trigger on critters with the RRA and twice stuff has died!!

The 69 grain SMK went straight through him without much to do not anythiing like the 50 grain blitz which explodes em. Oh well it's a coyote load anyhow the crow was just in the wrong place at the wrong time! I just ordered 500 65 grain Sierra Game King BTs!
They should do a little better job on game. So far I'm plum tickled to death with the RRA or should I say they are tickled to death! LOL!!

I love mine it has a sweet 3.3 pound trigger breaks good and crisp.

Will keep em inside a 1/2 inch at 100 yards. What more could you ask for?

Great crow, like the RockRiver. I got a new fox pro spitfire and have been using the crow gathering and crow fight, those crows show up fast to that call. Can't wait until June and crow comes back in season here.

I recently put a Trijicon Accupoint 2.5 X 10 X 56mm 30mm tubed scope on her. It has the red triangle reticle here's a link to it!

Trijicon, Inc. : Brilliant Aiming Solutions

I highly reccomend it for many reasons it works great on moving targets on 2.5 power and with the 56mm objective it has great light gathering ability. I shot one 1/2" group with her yesterday and a couple that went 3/4" not bad for a yote rifle.
