    Private firearms sale question, please

    This would be great if anyone can access it.

    Adam is the man. Help a brother out.
  3. I have a bunch of fresh corn. Maybe I'll cut some off the cobb and put it in the blender then strain it to add some flavor. Enchilada sauce is not the flavor profile i want.
  4. Oh, NO NO NO NO! Here is where I'm, at so far. Bought a fresh pork shoulder roast, ~ 3 pounds from Food City. Took me 20 minutes to remove the bone and cut away all the fat, sinew and other undesirable stuff. That took two Tecate Lites. The limes went into the meat to help marinate and tenderize it. A few beers and limes later the cubed meat is still resting. The meat will get "lightly" browned in a Beehive Dutch Oven I got from Casey quite a few years ago. I did get some Roma tomatoes today from Food City @ fifty cents a pound but they won't be in this. Probably some onions, carrots and cilantro to taste. Maybe some potato too but cut into small cooked cubes added in the last 20 minutes or so.

    High end Rifle question

    Yeah we can't all be Lance. LOL. Decide "realistically" what your hunting style has been. Ask yourself, What is your shot/kill ratio record? How far was your closest shot, how far was your farthest shot? Do your really really really need a sub 1/2 MOA rifle and if so under pressure will it matter or will you still miss by 10 MOA?

    High end Rifle question

    I've never had a rifle that shot better after 100 rounds. That's just completely silly to say that. Whether it was a rifle bought solely for competition or hunting.

    And I won't charge you mileage.

    Spy Point Trail Cams

    Anyone use them? One of my sisters lives in a very rural part of Colorado and been getting visits from bears and lions leaving tracks on the driveway probably coming from the pond which is about 100 yards from the house. She is a few miles from town out in the stix. I thought a Spy Point would give them up to date pics since they have about 150 yards to take the trash cans out to the main road from the house.

    Russ, this is a fair price and they don't come up very often. I had one in 7BR. One ragged hole at 100 yards. Jump on it.

    Interesting snake

    We only had Garter and Ribbon snakes where I grew up. Garter snakes were more mellow than Ribbon snakes and less likely to bite but they would always secrete a stinky fluid when caught, except the young when they were first born. If a snake wasn't available locally you could pretty much order anything you wanted from the classified in the back of Field & Stream. There were also buyers so if you had just about any reptile or amphibian they would buy them whether it was one or in lots. Stick them in a box, take it to the post office and send it. One year my dad bought me a Florida Indigo Snake. It was midnight blue with an orange belly and 4' long. Very docile. I fed it mostly toads which were plentiful.
  12. If you can get out early in the morning at sunrise to scout that helps a lot.

    Dragon Bravo Fire

    We're a month away from the beginning of fall up there and probably three weeks from full containment. Precipitation really won't happen until later this month and into September which will push greenup, but deer are browsers. The Forest Service may not open it up, even with pressure from hunters with the potential for more deadfalls/blowdowns and the lingering possibilities of such.

    4 free bait casting rods, 2 reels

    Cool. Hopefully they will go to someone who really needs them.

    .270 Remington 700

    I don't see a floorplate so I would say yes, there is no bottom metal.

    We probably had rain for a couple of hours early this morning about 1AM in Mesa. I'll take it. But then it always seems to start raining two weeks before Dove season.

    Sea sickness

    Four patches of Scopolamine at Walmart for $25.71 using Single Care App. GoodRx was a few bucks more. I do a patch the night before and it lasts for three days. Makes your stomach a little tight and limit your alcohol consumption. Have you Doctor call in a prescription.

    What's for dinner tonight?

    I have also had them in orange but there is not a huge difference in taste. Orange and yellow have more beta caratine. It may have more to do with our hot dry climate for them not showing up much here as they are usually don't get shipped too far from where they are grown. On the east end of Long Island the land is very fertile and that area also gets a lot of rain (40"-50+" a year) so there are lots of farms and also vineyards. Most farms have roadside stands or small stores and different varieties of watermelons have been very popular since as long as I can remember and most aren't much bigger than a soccer ball. Back in the 50's and 60's there were corn and potato fields everywhere.

    The whole State needs this. Last year sucked for rain and so does this year. Bark Beetles are going to decimate the forests.
  23. My freezer is down to a few Elk roasts. I have not idea what is available or what the dates and cost is but I know there are some available and could use some input.
