"Functional, but not much "pride in ownership". ???, What does it take to have such pride? Shiny parts?, Goes bang when you pull the trigger?, You can afford it? I bet this gun does and has all that, so aside from ego, does it take a Winchester 94? Cause if it does, all the 94's I've ...

I used to build a wood fire under the barrel to scald them, takes a couple hours usually to get a high enough temp. I was doing that one morning, getting ready for that days pig, when my old man stopped by. He asked if there was something wrong with me, I asked "how else am I going to get this ...

One more point, if you replace your rear sight with a peep, you'll probably need to replace the front sight with a taller one, I had to with a FP, as have many others by all reports. Then the hood won't fit over the sight.

I think thats where mine is.

It works with a standard 336, kinda clumsy though.

Regular, or minty fresh?

I don't think there is anything so classic in the grouse woods then a hunting bred English Setter. If you want a pointer. A Brittany would work too, maybe better. Forget the Labradodo's, Yes they can be trained for other purposes, but deep down they're a retriever, that sheds their weight in hair pe...

Probably, I've NEVER recovered a bullet, or fragment of same, in any of the dozens of deer I've taken.

Find bad sample, extrapolate, call chicken little.

Rimfire, I'm in far north Florida, AKA New York, seems that way anyway since half this place lives in your state according to the license plates I see here in the summer.

LOL, Spam really IS made of meat, pork shoulders actually, saw it being made on one of the cable channels.
Wally World has Spam, and their store brand, dirt cheap, get the lower salt one.
My old man loves that stuff, fried it's pretty good.

I guess I'm in the minority, I've always used a bead and sight it dead on. Just seemed more natural, and faster, to put a round bead into the center of a round hole. Of course, 99.9% of my shots are under 100 yds., and it's all game shooting. With the Williams Firesite , the bead is so small it real...

You can render any fat,.. beef is tallow, hog is lard, sheep is ?, sheep tallow? You start with any raw fat, but the fat around the kidneys is considered higher grade. Ask the butcher for some beef fat trimmings (suet), and render down likes been said, don't be in too much of a rush to pour off the ...

I must have just come out of a cave, lol
Last 22's I bought were mail order, and all THEY asked was what's your credit card number?

Was in Walmart yesterday, AKA "The evil empire" by some, lol Anyway went to buy a box of the Federal bulk 22's, no problem right? The woman asks what type of gun?, I said a 22, she says again, what type of gun?, again I said 22 caliber. She says , yes I understand it's a 22, but what type ...

Butter....

Usually a redi mix, but sometimes from scratch, best way I've found, and it's already been said, is putting the mix into a HOT cast iron pan in the oven.

Now let's talk about grits!

Did you have any problems with the cartridges chambering?

The kit neck sizes only and some of my brass will chamber, and some won't without more pressure then I care to apply.

This IS with brass fired in the same gun.

Well at least I'm not in the Gay part.... I'm in the useless part.

Thanks for that.

Mostly , Large animal vets, don't make near the money of a small animal vet. That's why theres a shortage in rural areas, but they make a living, and like's been said, for a commitment, opportunities can probably be had. On the plus side, the majority of vet students now are women (girls). So if you...

If I recall correctly, on one of these boards, by someone who has used this round in his line of work for 2 legged varmints, the choice's were... Win 150 gr HP Federal 125 gr.

That's good,... but for a TRUE story, I know a co-worker that used to take his wife out to Burger King for an occasional romantic dinner. He would buy 1 whopper, extra lettuce and tomato,then take out the lettuce and tomato/pickle, that was hers, he ate the plain Hamburger, that was it, nothing else...

I think the medical portion can be kept for 1 year under COBRA, this would be the same plan you have, or had, now.
This would give you time to research other options.

Some good advice here, but sometimes things can go horribly wrong. I know a guy that was driving to work one day, a garbage collection day. He noticed what looked like gun barrels sticking out of a can. He stopped and discovered a can FULL of rifles and shotguns. Seems like a recent widow hated guns...

Where is it written that only wives' feelings, likes, and dislikes, take center stage? Place of your own? Good luck with that, it's ALL there space. I don't know, must be getting old and cranky , but I'd of told her "The smell won't kill you, and if you don't like it, go to bed. She'd still be ...

This comes up on the trapping sites periodically, Seems lots of people claim to see "black panthers" but not one has ever been confirmed caught, shot,or run over. If you try to figure the odds of NO ONE bringing one in, when they're "seen" all over the country, well, you'd have b...

Gee, from reading all this, I see my approach may have been lacking. I told my son and every young male I come across that "Girls are yucky" While this is so often true, I got the feeling they didn't believe me. :D While I can't recall a specific "talk", things got discussed when...

The cheap BSA red dot I put on my son's 336 was only good during normal daylight, night shooting would have been impossible. A low power scope, even a cheap one, works well after sunset for longer then you'd expect.Depending on background, you can usually see closer range targets at night if you hav...

gcs

Cheap red dots don't work very well in my experience, poor low light visibility, and no magnification, with a limited field of view. Can't comment on the good ones, other then they are pricey. Red dots are fast on target though, and about idiot proof.
I'd go for a low power scope

That's way too neat and orderly for a possibles box, I have possible boxes, shelves, closets, bags, rooms,tabletops, cans, jars, milk crates......

Takes me days to find stuff sometimes.

There's as much taste difference WITHIN the species, as there can be between species. Same deer can change taste depending on the season also, just depends what they're eating, and when.

There was just a TV show on one of the bug channels about these fish a few days ago, claimed the giant snakeheads can get to FIVE feet! Seems they get released by aquarists, ?sp, and they get illegally imported for food from Asia, and some then get released into local waters. Fish and Game depts. ar...

Now I know this doesn't include anyone here ....

, but my 'ol man always used to say, " Never work with a guy that smokes a pipe, He'll spend half his time trying to get it lit, and the other half trying to keep it lit, and you'll end up doing all the work."

If it's the landlords daughter that's living there, what makes anyone think he's willing to do anything about it?

You do anything to the house or occupants, prepare for retaliation and or a jail stay. Tough talk aside, is it worth it?

Just move away, but realize that this stuff is everywhere.

gcs

It's only a hassle if you let it be, just chuck the groveling letters and forget it. Or call the big office and request that you only get a mailing once or twice a year, or how ever they do it. I try to give them a little extra besides the dues, I hope it helps. The money requests are no way as freq...

Are you cooking/smoking, the sausage before you re-freeze? then definitely yes, Raw, I'm not so sure, but I don't see why not.

From what I've seen, the Latinos don't like each other, as well as not liking Blacks. Ever wonder why the Bodegas show the flag of the country the owner comes from? Cause most will only go to "their" peoples place. It's kind of funny, the Central Americans hate the Mexicans, the South Amer...

I don't know if they're still sold, but Sportsmans Guide used to sell a cheap Russian Military 15-30x variable that while a little clunky, wasn't all that bad,(for the price). Even came with it's own tripod. At 50 yds you could see holes on target easily, probably to 100, though I didn't try that. I...

Well, If you use your house like a silencer you can use about anything. Set up in the middle of the room, and shoot through an open window or door, other then getting the powder smell out, no problems. :wink: Besides, one shot in the winter with everyones windows closed is hard to locate, during the...

Have no experience with the Silvertips, but from what I've read, they are a tougher bullet for larger critters, don't know how true that is.

Before I switched to the LR's, I used the 150PP with good results, I had faster kills then the Rem 170's I had been using, be advised that I found the PP's a pretty tough bullet, I compared them with the LR's and 170's, and they actually retained the most weight percentage wise in the test med. I us...

I'm in need of a new scope for my 243, Natchez has a deal on discontinued Brownings, which are Bushnell 3200 Elites. The price is good but still almost twice as much as an equivalent Bushnell Banner, which I have on another rifle and I like. Other then the "get a Leupold" advice, which is ...

" Don't waste game with lung shots"

Huh?
Any critter I've ever shot in the lungs wasn't "wasted", just dead, ate them too.

Something went wrong, but sometimes things do, I have a hard time figuring ANY bullet out of a 45/70 can't kill a little ol deer.

gcs

Why don't you send that same message to Winchester?
See if they can explain that, and maybe send you a new box of bullets for your trouble.

gcs

Have much of the same problems though not as severe, yet, The managed recoil will work fine on deer, a "Limbsaver" pad will also do wonders for recoil, you can even get them in a slip on style, try shooting in a more upright position from the bench to let your shoulder roll back more while...

If your gun will shoot them, try the Leverevolutions, you'll get a nice bump up in performance without doing a thing.

Read an article, I think last year, that the Benoits no longer use peep sights and have gone over to scopes, for that style of hunting, the peeps still work well though.
