Do you hunters re sight or practice shoot your rifle before the season start ...
For sure, that is a Priority One.
Not only just before season , always shooting through out the year.
Absolutely. I just sent in my gun club renewal payment today actually. I handload every round I shoot also.
In our gang it's a must... Just so we don't injure deer. ... And give free meals to the yotes!...
anything can happen since last year
always several times threw out the year. As well as practice with the 22 with the same action.
I shoot it throughout the year and most definitely just before the opener... You need to get comfortable and confident with your firearm (tool) in order to use it properly. I also practice a lot of free hand shooting with my .22 which really helps me shoot tight groups better.
I may be sticking my neck out on this one, but I would think not taking the time to ensure your weapon of choice "is on" is irresponsible. I sight before going, and once I get there (as I travel a fair bit to get to the hunt and stuff gets shuffled around a bit).
I never stop practicing
You're not sticking your neck out at all.
If you're not sure if your gun is on, then you shouldnt be in the bush.
I shoot year round, increasingly up to the time of the moose and deer hunts. Likely 60 minimum from each of my large calibre rifles, and a few bulk packs of .22LR. A couple cases of shot as well. I always shoot minimum two shells the weekend before each season opens, with the box of shells I will be using that week.
