A fine fat doe, that will be alot of fine meat. Good looking rifle too. What part of Michigan, UP or lower? We were in Charlevoix county by a town called East Jordan in the lower peninsula. On a farm that has been in my family for a long time. It is a nice 80 acre farm that has lots of deer but the...

My friend Cory and I just got back from a ten day levergun hunt in Northern Michigan. . We had a great time we hunted mainly with leverguns and on opening day evening this is what he shot. 20 yds broadside with a Marlin 336ss. 30-30 Win 150 Grain handloaded bullet, that he made himself. The deer onl...

Win 38 55: what county is your property located in? I will be up in Charlevoix county in Dec. for the Michigan muzzleloading season. Our family farm is north of East Jordan, and continues to give up many whitetails each year.. my bro. and my mother live there. Les Wow! That is almost scary our fami...

Alright here is my problem. I own a wide assortment of deer killing devices. Ever thing from compound bow to long bows to modern artillery. I have a very nice piece of family owned land in northern michigan to hunt on. Half of this property is dense woods the other half is wide open fields where sho...

You should have stayed put in that stand, from some of my similar experiences, They kick up deer and the deer end up running back in the same direction that the dumb @@@'s came from, then you shoot the deer. Some times people moving through your area actually help you. I am an avid bow hunter and so...

My first Hi power rifle was a Chinese SKS 7.63x39 mm. I bought it in unissued condition packed in a crate of
10 rifles, all the rifles were in perfect condition for 49 bucks out the door. I wish I still had that gun it was a lot of fun for cheap plinking.

Semper Fi Marine's and Happy 233 a day late. Also Thank you to all of the other vet's out there on this veterans day.
I do remember when I was 19 in the First Gulf War, I thought anyone that was over the age of 24 was ancient.
Funny how that works. Semper Fi

CNN has another poll on there main page.
This time it is about Joe Horn the Texas man who
shot two robbers robbing his neighbor's
house please vote for Joe.
By the way I really hate CNN I think they might be
the biggest antigunners of our time.

That will be a sad day when the old war horse of the infantry is gone.
When I was in the Gulf War we were shooting .50 cal ammo in a M2
with manufacturing dates inside the ammo cans from 1953.
The Gun fired flawless and so did the ammo.

They just put it up 10 minutes ago. We need to get the word out to fix them numbers.
CNN is highly biased against guns anyway.

Just wanted to get the word out that cnn.com
Is having a poll about the recent ruling on the gun ban and wanted everone here
to go give it a vote. It is on the main page at the bottom right.Thanks.

I have a mid 1980's Sheridan Silver streak in stainless that I bought new as a kid. It is still an awesome pellet rifle. About 4 weeks ago I had some flying rats (pigeons) in the backyard. At about 20 yards I took ones head clean off with the .20 cal pellet. The rest of the flock got the picture rea...

Well since no one else wants to make the first comment I guess I will do it. As a Marine myself I know where he is coming from. After so many days in the field with no action you want some action. After all that is why people sign up for the CORPS. Awesome video makes me proud to have worn the Eagle...

That's great. Don't feel bad if that's the last note you get from him. He'll still need to get as many from you as possible, though. If he actually has time to even think about writing, then as Kim noted, things may not have really kicked off, yet. Do you know if he is still in Receiving Barracks, ...

No. They were the really really loose fitting blue jeans with the underwear showing.

I do not think all that is needed . The last 4 deer I shot were in blue jeans.
That were washed at least 100 or more times in regular detergent.
Same with the hunting jacket. The deer don"t care what type of detergent you use.

Wow that is awesome Nice Job. We need more people in this world like this.

I bought both of my children numbers matching Ruger 10-22's last Christmas. That went over really great until we went to the Range. My Daughter Wanted to try my Savage 17 HMR With heavy target barrel and a very powerful 12 power scope. She shot a 10 shot group that would fit on a Playing card at 100...

I will come if you guys get a date. This could be a lot of fun.
I think it would take me about 4 hours to get there. I live around Chelsea, Mi
Set a date and I will be there. With lots of guns.

I just bought 2 boxes of Black Hills 38-55 WCF 255 grain ammo from
Midway. I was just wondering if any one has tried this stuff and if it is any good. I usually shoot Winchester 255 grain jacketed.

I have been into Traditional/Non traditional Archery since the age of 12. I currently have a 1968 Shakespeare Wonderbow Ocala Model x- 17 ,55 #. A 1961 Bear Ranger. This was my first bow. It was given to me buy a good friend that worked at Bear Archery in Grayling Michigan. He personally knew the Gr...

The weapon, a Barrett, was seized in an ATF raid. A round fired from 100 yards away tore through a car door and both sides of a bulletproof vest like those used by Mexican police.


No kidding jack. I seem to think it could go a wee bit further that a measly
100 yds.

Wow I must be a real Bad American Because I believe in all
of those. Plus a few more.

I have a brand new Marlin 336 ss in 30-30. I want to put a scope on this gun and was thinking about getting a leopold 3x9-40 VX II. The question I have is what to do about mounting it to the rifle. What type of rings a bases are you guys and gals using. Also are there any other scope's that might be...

Well I am from Michigan. And I am really tired of this snow.
We got about 1.5 feet of it on ground and it is not going away
any time soon.

I am from Michigan and when I first read this I was thinking that Northgate would be somewhere near Clare Michigan. Because that is considered the Gate way to the North of Michigan.

Wow that is cool. Where at in Michigan.

Has any one on the board seen any of the new Mossberg leverguns
in 30-30 yet and if so what was the price. Also how did it look as far as quality.

My Great Grandfather must have thought it was good enough for
his deer hunting in 1912. By the way that is a Winchester 1873, 32-20
built in 1884. Which is still in the family

I travelled with the SDT for a couple of weeks back in 1978, just because we happened to be going the same way. After spending that time in close quarters observing their behavior, listening to them talk about other Marines, and seeing how they are encouraged by their superiors to look down on the ...
