Welp I guess this is my intro post. I’m new to hunting, so new I’ve actually never been. I live in Atlanta and plan to hunt public land for now till I can gain access to private property. None of my family hunts but I’ve always had a slight Intrest but never made the move. It’s harder than I thought to find veteran hunters to take you out and teach you so I’m diving in solo.
With that said I planned all week to head over to allatoona wma in Sunday for my solo intro hunt. The wife (8 months pregnant) agreed I could use the alone time and I accepted. I received my scope in the mail from vortex today and decided I’d go ahead and get everything mounted for the range on Friday. Well that’s the kicker; my scope rings for my ruger don’t fit my tikka t3x light. With only a few days left before I head out there’s no time to order online so I have 2 options. Cancel my first ever hunt or spend significantly more money than I want to in mounts local. Unfortunately I dont have much extra cash after picking up the other standard gear that I may have to cancel. I’m super upset but I guess that’s the way it goes. So i guess if anyway has some ring mounts that will fit a tikka and your kind of close to Atlanta please let me know. Even if I can just barrow them for the weekend that would be awesome.
anyway here I am still excited for what ever is to come for me. I look forward to meeting experienced hunters and learning from this forum.
