    spring Draw results are online now

    Still waiting for mine to update but my son and I drew turkey and I drew a pig tag.

    Bears and missed shots/spooked

    In the 90's I would run across the same female every year down in 29.

    Barrel selection?

    What would be the velocities of those two say at 500 and 750 yards?

    SOLD

    Coyote season is upon us. I have two of these and unlike most other AR's this will fire everything out there from the good stuff to steel case Tula.
  5. I've had to cut wire fences before.
  6. That stinks. What did you do to get out?

    There are roadless areas where you can hike your tail off, thank god.

    270 Ammo & Brass 45 Long Colt Ammo

    I'm interested in the 243. Can you PM me the info?
  9. I am looking to get my son a scope for his birthday with a $300 budget that will be mostly used for Squirrels. The 3x9 that came with it is an el cheapo and doesn't cut it. I have a Leupold 2x7x33 Shotgun/Muzzeloader on my Nylon 66 and it works just fine for me. I think 3x9 is overkill for squirrels since most shots are 40 yards max, more like 15 to 25 yards. What are you using?

    I work on 10th Place and will buy coffee and two donuts of your choice for the base. LOL

    Thoughts On A Shotgun: Keep or Sell?

    Tough choice. I think he would understand. My son bought himself a Tristar a few years ago. Has been a great gun. I did have to replace the o ring and got it at ACE along with a few spares. I believe it is the same one used on the 1100.
  13. Stop stressing over it. Take what you have left and go hunt. Buy something close and if you run out resightin. A different lot won't hit the same spot anyway. Good Luck on your hunt BTW.

    Lead Core VS Solid Copper Ammo

    When Barnes came out with the X-Bullet I loaded some 120's in my Savage. I think it was 69 grains of RL19 or 22. Anyway they were about 3400 and I smacked a 3x3 high up in 29, maybe 220 yds. DRT Didn't even flop. Side canyon shot, he was about 30 yards lower facing away. Bullet hit about the 4th rib back and went through the backstrap and out the left side near the elbo. Lost a golfball size of meat. Boned it out, gutless method. I was alone and put him in my frame pack and hiked from 6400 down to the bottom of horseshoe at 4600w here we were camped. Should have rented a camcorder and saved it for Youtube. I would have been famous as the Godfather of the gutless method. LOL Taught lots of other newbies I mentored way back then when I had time to do that. Late December tags were close to 800 for 29 and some years you could get a second rifle tag. Mexican Gray Wolves were commonplace. Never needed to be reintroduced. I ofter wondered if that white Couse that G&F had a picture of in the lobby with a few other deer was the same one I chased for a few years. Talk of the town in Paradise, back in the day.

    Finally...

    Well done. Hope you have many more years of hunting them to come.

    Vegas Superbowl Weekend

    My brother turns 60 on Friday. He wants to stay at the Bellagio so he can see the fountains but after looking at prices he thinks he will stay at the MGM. I spoke to one of my sisters and assigned her the chore of getting prices for five rooms for the first and second there and then maybe MGM on Sunday since we will blow out on Monday. Little does he know but we will make his wish happen so any insight info on how to pull this together would be really appreciated.
  17. I thought about putting this in the Campfire but since it was more toward cooking I'll post it here. https://honest-food.net/on-trichinosis-in-wild-game/

    rifle for wife

    I only know a few people who like the old nostalgic rounds.
  20. My son is looking at one in the 20" bar, upgrading from his Poulan. I thought maybe a Stihl? Just hobby use and where to have serviced and where to buy, from a dealer?

    The mom and pop shops are the best. My mothers parents lived on Francis Lewis Blvd and I was born in Hollis. Dads family lived in Mt Vernon. I grew up further out on the Island. Slices were 25 cents when I was in HS.

    Ya know. There are really two places where forengors come into the US. NYC and Arizona. I have seen the face of NYC change over the decades. It's what makes our country great and NYC with it's 800 dialects, welcoming attitude is what's it's all about. Rat Race? No. Just a littler faster pace. Born there but it's too pricey for me to live there.
