Hi all, just got back from my first trip out with my new Foxpro FX3. So far I'm pretty happy, here's a pic (your welcome Bigbore!!:mrgreen::mrgreen:)

I had two more come in to the call, but they both busted me before I saw them. I seemed to have the best results with sound #22-Rodent and #16-Cottontail distress, the Crows, Hawks and Magpies sure get curious once they hear the call! This thing is tons of fun! The gun is a Weatherby Vangaurd sub MOA in .22/250, shooting a 45Gr. Barnes TSX over 37.5 Grains of Reloader 15, good for 3700 fps and deadly accurate(ask the 'yote!). I set up on a small hill just off a deactivated FSR facing a 90* bend in the road. I placed the call in a frozen Marsh on the outside of said bend and let the Foxpro do it's thing. This female came down the road from around the bend and stopped facing me pretty much dead on in the middle of the road, the bullet entered the right side of the chest and came out just in front of the right hind leg. Shot distance was roughly 80 yards(according to the old "eyecromiter") and after a flop or two it was all over, wooo-hoo! Foxpro rocks!!:-D
