Cee Zee:
That's a dandy lookin' Hoveround! Seems you're a little young to need one, but I like the way you have it upgraded! My brother uses one of those "Tactical Hoverounds" to hunt too. Of course, it calls it an "ATV". Whatever. That's his story, and he's sticking to it.
Heck of it is, he's a young man, only 53, and doesn't even walk with a hitch-in-his-gtitalong, but he sure favors using a Tactical Hoveround.
OP:
Wow, for a ranch/farm, take your pic. Anything from a .22LR to a .300WM would fit the bill. When I think ranch rifle, or farm rifle, I think of something that would fit on the tractor with me while I was working the fields. My cousins, in those situations, carry whatever they carry, but always a bolt-action. A .22-250 Rem is a definite favorite.
For me, if I were still driving the tractor around the fields (wow I miss that), I would likely go with my Weatherby Vanguard Varmint Special in .223, or my Mossberg MVP 5.56. On either one, I'd be tempted to mount my Trijicon AccuPoint 1-4 optic. Both rifles are superbly accurate, and that optic is great from sun-up, to high-noon, to sun-setting.
This is a great thread! Thanks for starting it!
