I hear ya fallguy just thought I would throw that out there :wink: . Oh and I know about haveing a kid at home I am a single dad and have custody of my daughter. Try working out all the coyote hunting when you have to find babysitters and stuff. NOT FUN :( . I am not from Bismarck either so I don't have any family here. Oh and you shouldn't worry about banging them up all guns are tools used for killing :shock: . Some old restored muscle car you take to car shows is something you should worry about scratching not a rifle :D
I would rather have a slow hit than a fast miss...

Question for you guys that uae a wrap to camo your gun

Can you wrap the barrel to the forearm of your rifle and not jeopardize your accuracy?? I have heard that it doesn't matter and I have also heard that your shot grouping will not be as tight.

Any comments??

No I would say you shouldn't wrap the barrel to the forearm.If you wrap it tight and cause any unwanted contact between the barrel and the stock you are going to have problems.

The rifles that I have dont' have free floated barrels. I wrapped my Ruger 243 the past two seasons and haven't noticed a change in my accuracy when wrapping and unwrapping. If there is a change in my particular gun it is so small I cannot tell. Would that make a difference since my barrel isn't free floated?
