For
most eastern varmint hunters a trip "Out West"
can be a dream... for Tom and the crew at Dog Be Gone
it is a "Dream Come True"! In this second installment
in their great line of varmint hunting videos we get
to watch the crew dispatch prairie dogs, ground squirrels,
and rock chucks with everything from the slick 17HMR
up to the massive 50cal! Yes... I said 50cal! You get
to witness varmint destruction throughout the west, including
Utah, North Dakota, Montana, Idaho, and Wyoming!
If
you are looking for a "bang... pop... bang... pop" film,
you got it! With chapter titles like "Max Carnage"
and "Dumb Dogs" you know that you will get some great
impact shots. Tom and crew shoot everything in sight
with everything under the sun, including rimfire rifles,
center fire rifles, and center fire pistols. The forced
aerial acrobats of some of these prairie dogs are down
right amazing... but the most impressive must see is
the rock chuck who had the misfortune of getting in the
way of a 750gr A-max launched from Tom's Serbu BMG50!
Overkill... you bet, impressive... with out a doubt,
jealous... I most certainly am!
With
in-depth information on the customization of Tom's
now famous Savage to the great technical information
on the products that the DBD crew is using in the
film. You get to visit "Sharp Shooter Supply's" custom
Savage work shop where Tom's "out of the box" Savage
gets turned into a customized wicked varmint whacker.
You also get to look inside a custom ammunition
shop with "The Hunting Shack's" custom ammunition
manufacturing. They give information on everything
from 22 Hornet all the way up to the massive 50cal
and everything in between. There is also a in-depth
sections on the 17HMR, & .204 Ruger with ammo
breakdown charts for both as a "special feature" after
the video is over. Tom's true love for varmint
hunting and shooting is prevalent throughout the
film. But, the best thing about the film has to
be the
"comedic" comments by the crew mixed throughout the fantastic shooting of this
all around great film. I didn't find much in the way of disappointment as I
watched the video. The two insignificant things that I wanted more of were:
More
shot descriptions (caliber, bullet, rifle, scope,
distance...) Some of the shot had this, but not
all of them.
More
clearity of some of the rock chuck shots. Some
shots had a crosshair that showed the well hidden
critters... some didn't.
This
will be a great addition to anyone's varmint hunting
film section. After watching Tom and the crew have
a BLAST (pun intended) I think it's time to start
loading up some excess rounds for the 22-250 and
223! I will have to put them to good use some where...
Head WEST young man!
