Hello from Vancouver Island
Hello all.
I'm from Vancouver Island, British Columbia. New to Blaser rifles. Can't wait to get the new R8 and hunt North America with it. Look forward to chatting with you guys about hunting, adventure and fine guns.

Re: Hello from Vancouver Island
That sounds really good right now. Want to trade some of our rain for your sun? Mind you though we have lots of nice mountains to hike and hunt so I can't complain too muchMcardenal wrote:Welcome from sunny South Florida, USA

Re: Hello from Vancouver Island
I love living in South FL. But don’t get me wrong......I LOVE me some Mountain View’s, fast moving streams, rivers and dense forests. Especially Montana, Wyoming in the West and the Appalachians in the east. Just don’t think I could live through a full winterVancouverBC wrote:That sounds really good right now.

Welcome from another mountain loving Floridian. I’ve hunted BC and found it to be awesome.

I'm a mountain man myself, and I love mountain women.
I'm soft and I don't care.

I hunt, I shoot, I camp, I fish. They are the great reset buttons in my life.

Re: Hello from Vancouver Island
I am going with two Blasers (sold all my other junk to get a real rifle) an R8 Ruthenium Grade 8 which will be a collector for me and will go on the odd hunt and then the R8 Black or Professional which will be the work horse. Most of my game has been taken inside 350 yards so I am going with old faithful: the 308
