My wife hunts and fishes with me all the time. She has shot Javi, Coons, Pigs, her biggest a 350lb'r. She has been after me to get her a bobcat. So I bought her a new Remington model 7 synthetic in .223 and put a Leupold 4.5-14x40 scope on it. I'll go to the range and zero it next week and then look at getting her a bobcat hunt.

She is a keeper. Good luck and have fun huntin....

don't know how far coleman is from you, but there is a guide that charges 150 per person a night and there is a good chance of calling one in, if not definately a bunch of foxes... we called in around 10 in one night one trip. pm me for info

x2 Goodluck!

Thanks guys, she is a keeper. If we go to Cabela's are BPS she tells me to get a basket as soon as we walk through the doors.

She have a good lookin sister?

3 brothers, sorry.

Give us a call, we would be more than happy to help. We locate animals at night using thermal imaging scopes and can put her in range for a shot. We have more than 15 years of experience as a outfitter and are located here in central Texas. Our ranches run from Waco to Coolidge.

Thanks Craig I'll call you.

What caliber did she shoot all the other game with?

I have killed several bobcats and found that 223 is hard the pelt if you intend to mount it. I shot my last one with a 308 and a handload using 165 gr Corlokt spire point bullet, and the entrance hole was the diameter of the bullet and exited the size of a quarter. The shot was 80 yards.

Thanks for the info retrieverman. I have a safe full of rifles, shotguns, and pistols. Plenty to pick from. She wanted the .223 so that was what I bought her.

the last bobcat i shot was with a 17 hmr tiny entrance no exit

Only bobcat I ever shot was with my 30/06. It was definately an ugly exit wound and the hide was ruined.

The 223 will work well, just be aware that typical varmint rounds like the Vmax may make a nasty exit! If you really want to save the hide try some of the remington core lokt soft points.

Thanks stxhunter

this!!!!

i shot a beautiful bobcat with my .270 at like 60-75 yards, with 150 grain core lokt soft points, and the exit was pretty darn small, maybe nickel to quarter sized

did you get in touch with mike?

tannerlst I sent you a PM.
