I guess we can continue to stir this pot over and over despite the numerous discussions we have already had.

My son works 9 on and 5 off so today he was on his first day of being off so he and I went out this morning. I got 10 MD, 5 WW and 7 Collards. He got 7,2 & 6. I had to get back to work and made it in by 9:30. I always open the shop at about 6AM so it was nice coming in and the coffee was already made.

Another thought would be to parkerize it. I did that with a BAR in 300 WM I bought when they first came out.

Great story and video. If I was lucky enough to arrow a deer from someone elses tree stand I'd probably leave them $20.

Welcome, I'm a NY'er myself but I have lived here for almost 40 years and hunted 33 a few times including the October hunt. Hiking in from the closest road is what people are referring to. That hunt, depending on what elevation you hunt "could" see temps in the 30's at night and 90's in the day. But most likely the nigh time temps will be in the upper 40's to 50's. I have always managed to get the meat out and cooled down (into a cooler) in 4-5 hours with no problems to the meat.

ISIS and a Dirty Bomb is a very real threat. The next coordinated attack will be an all or nothing attack and is going to make 911 look like a kids birthday party.

It started off slow but as it got closer to sunrise the birds started showing up. My son had to work and I had the day off so I made the best of it. After two hours I used up the 60 or so shells I brought which were a mish marsh of old shells I had collected over the years. I even had one Active shell, but I didn't shoot it. All in all I came up with 34 doves, 2 White Wings, 11 Mourning Doves and 21 Collard Doves. There were lots of pigeons but I didn't have any #6 shot.

That looks like some sort of Horn Worm Catapillar and the spider looks like a female. Excellent picture.

Big fish. What rod is that Calcutta on?

Never hunted it myself but since it is so visible I would think it gets quite a bit of action.

That is pretty awesome. Just being in the woods with family makes it all worth it somehow.

Good news for the east valley. I'm waiting for the Unit 32 one to come out.

I know exactly what you mean as my son did that very thing, once. Completely caught me off guard but I never let it happen again. Don't mind saying it scared the crap out of me at the time even though it was a single six 22 and I was standing 6" behind him with my hands almost toughing his elbows.

Nice. What size line are you using on that Calcutta 30?

Adam, Rio shut down foot access to the 300 yard range a couple of years ago after an incident. There are gongs there to shoot at but at the main public range you can only run targets out to the 200 yard distance.

Can you park there and hike in to hunt?

The video is nice and sharp but I'm not a fan of heavy metal music and couldn't get past 4:19 without turning it off.

The more I think about it my thoughts are it is in the ignition switch. If the solenoid was faulty it would just engage the starter. The coil needs to be hot in order for it to remain running and for both the solenoid and coil to get voltage it has to eminate back at the ignition switch. If you can get an owners manual from Haynes they usually have the wiring diagrams in the back of the book. I don't believe those old trucks had any computers on them yet.

Ford made life easier for mechanics when they installed the solenoid relay on the fender wall and not on the starter. So it is easy, and cheap to replace. I've done my fair share of mechanic work and would be happy to take a look at it. I had a 76 with a 390 so I know a little about these trucks. If it sat for a long time and you smelt burnt wires I'd be suspecting mice have been nibbling away on the wires but you never know.

Sherman, You will need a $5 Migratory/Waterfowl Stamp to hunt Dove which you can get at any G&F Retailer. You also need to plug your shotgun.

Who owns one? Do they need constant attention? They seem to be smart as a whip, and maybe smarter than some people I know. I looking for more of a companion then a working dog.

Pretty much all of the Food City stores have had them for a week.

Make a pot of coffee and read this. http://forum.snipershide.com/snipers-hide-bolt-action-rifles/221658-26-nosler.html
