    VINTAGE MAUSER 98 CUSTOM 25-06

    Harley that's been pretty much the standard twist rate forever. It's a great cartridge. If you are planning to only shoot longer bullets then a faster twist would be in order for 130's but the usual 117's are more than adequate for shots under 500 yards.

    I think it's time for a new dog

    My son has a Shedding Machine, I mean Blue Heeler. He's no Skid Boot by a long shot but is friendly and at about 4 years old pretty mellow. His mother was a farm dog so no idea who the father was but he looks 100% Heeler.

    A friends daughter has a French Bulldog that is a few years old. Loves to play fetch and is super friendly.

    Trump

    I think an Independant would practically have to walk on water to get elected. Maybe in 20 years.

    Long range 30-06 load?

    Back in the early 90's I loaded for my BIL's 06 with Win 760, 56grains IIRC. Might have been compressed but was very accurate, even in his hands. It was his Caribou load so I probably loaded 165gr Partitions. We put a lot of mud on our boots that year east of Nome. One shot was all he needed but it wasn't more than 100 or so yards. It isn't a finicky cartridge. Biggest challenge will be bullet choice so I would stick to a lead/core based bullet to stay within the 1:10 twist and the restraints of the magazine.

    Trump

    All religion is a scam. Biggest farce mankind succumbed to. Look what it did in Iran and other Muslim countries. Oh wait, lets not forget the Crusades, Kool Aid, The Great American False Prophet, etc,etc. They all just want to be "kings" a "demi-god" and rich, rich, rich with unquestionable power fueled by greed. Do people really need to be told what is right or wrong. Does the Pope need a bigger gilded Vatican? People sin six days a week but get vindicated for one hour and tossing $20 only to be asked where were you Wednesday night? We missed you!!! Muslims hate Jews, Hindu's hate Buddists, Catholics hate Protestants and nobody knows what the heck to do with Mormans as each group thinks their the only ones who are in the right and going to get their 76 Virgins and their own kingdom. All about money and feeling smug, righteous and better than everyone else, including family all the while acting humble. The Donald cares about nobody except maybe Barron when he was younger and will probably throw him under the bus too, someday. He talks a good line, people yearn to hear it in desperation hoping for the promise of no taxes, controlled immigration and prosperity but it will never happen, ever. No matter who is ever elected. Some States have no State Income Tax and some have very low sales tax. The government needs to figure out how to implement that nationally. Watch Diesel, it adds cost to everything, which just is passed on to the consumer. Crude up 20% in a week. LOL. How many innocent people Trump is supposedly liberating have to die in Iran on his way to victory? Probably killed more civilians this week than the Ayatolla did in six months and displaced thousands with random bombings to people who struggle to have a roof over their head and feed their kids and elderly parents. They were better off two weeks ago, He will do the same thing his buddy Vladimir is doing in Ukraine in Iran and in the end nothing will really change. Great time to work for Raytheon, lots of overtime.

    Fishing boots

    I wear the thick Smart Wool socks for extra cushion and wear them almost every day when I wear work boots. Toss them all once a year and buy six new pairs at REI.

    Sold

    The Ser Number puts the manufacture date at 2012. Swarvoski leaves no stone unturned when you send them in to be gone through. I have sent multiple ones in for 20 years and they never dissapoint.

    Fishing boots

    I have the same Grundens but the lower ones that just cover the ankle. Love them. I bought them in 2019 and used them on a five day in Mexico and lived in them and then three days in Westport where I just wore them each day which was 10-12 hours each trip. I wear sock's so I have some cushion since once the action starts you're standing for hours at a time.

    Yeak but any of the Swarvo 15's and better than the run of the mill wannabes. HD's might give a slight edge in the gray hours or looking into the shadows.
