[QUOTE="Coyote Shadow Tracker, post: 2835925, member: 116439"] If you are looking for a GREAT shooting platform for PD hunting the RASS is a way to go. I have got to SD and when finding a PD Town set up this RASS where I had yds in any direction. I was using a .204 Ruger with 39gr SBK and a .223 with 50gr Zombie (ZMAX Hornady), 55gr SBK and 65gr SGK. The RASS is a bit heavy, I carry it in my Duffel Bag from the USMC. One of many hunting trips for PD and Chucks I set it up in a field in NE PA and had 600yds+ in about 290 degrees field of view to shoot. I shot 19 chucks from 300-500yds in about 3 hours. This was in the same field! I also had an umbrella to keep the Sun off of me. Had other hunts in SD with the same. One thing about using the umbrella is that if it is real windy, it will shake the RASS other ise it is great to keep the Sun off of you. Now the other shooting chair in the pictures are over 40 Years old. Thousands of Chucks were shot off of this chair. I can't remember the name of the builder, but he is long gone anyway. My second dad and best hunting partner has a new chair even though it is 40+ sitting in his basement. He does not hunt anymore and Hopefully I can get this other chair from him or his sons. He is in his 90s now. I always remember him pulling a pocket size note pad from is left top shirt pocket with all the farmers names and locations of chuck fields. He also kept a tally of every chuck he shot and what field. He shot thousands! I have many of those fields stored in my GPS unit for when I get back to NE PA. [/QUOTE]
