My predator hunting highlights from 2022

[Geno]

A single 2022 predator hunting highlight was tough to decide on, so here are 2!
A jackal headshot at 482m first up.
The terrain made accurate ranging tough, so the 610y range was too far and guessed it closer to 520-550y. I held low on her chest knowing that anything closer than 610y would be a proper hit. Bang, top of her skull


Second was a jackal and caracal double at around 400m.
I saw the caracal first, and noticed it was on a mission and not interested in my call. I then saw the jackal it was having a scrap with. I went for the jackal first knowing I would get a chance at the cat with the second shot.


All with the ATN Mars4 75mm 4-40x thermal scope.
FOXPRO. X2s caller
Rem700 .243win + 70gr Nosler Varmageddon

Good shooting.

Are you using electronic callers or doing it the old fashioned way?

[Geno]

Both, but mostly Foxpro electronic callers.

Hi Geno

How many nights(outings) did it more or less take to shoot all these animals?
