It's tough to be patient, I know, but while you heal, you can sit back and watch all the shenanigans of our governor........ :? (Who I actually voted for, 2 times!) :wink: Good luck.

Slowly getting vision back, looking through a brownish, milky cloud now, but I can see through it! Wife took me to the big C in Scarborough yesterday and I bought a bucket full of 44wcf cowboy loads, (well maybe not a full bucket but all they had anyways). As soon as the ground freezes up again I th...

Has anyone ever had their master/dominant eye shift after an injury? How do you deal with it? Switch shoulders or what?
I am having some funky things going on with my vision and am wondering what may happen down the road with my shooting.

Never had their pull-ons, but wore their smoke jumpers for a some years, also tried the Hathorns. Ended up going to Wesco's just because of my foot shape.(The White's jumpers would bite my heal a little and jamb my small toe a bit, until they really broke in). They put out a real high quality, well ...

I may be loosing my mind, it is Friday after a bugger of a week....but, I just went to Dick's Sporting Goods web sight looking for clay pigeons. The white Flyers they carry have an optional 1 or 2 year service contract available! Now does this cover you for hits? or misses? or handling breakage?

Do a search of Cabela's Gun Library. It shows quite a few 38-40 rifles all around the country, pretty spendy though: http://www.cabelas.com/catalog/search.cmd?form_state=searchForm&N=0&Ntk=GunLibrary&Ntt=38-40&x=18&y=3 Shasta h stuff! I'm looking for a new repro for about 12 old...

I made a few calls today but just got the "nope, not available". I don't see anything listed in .38WCF from Uberti.

mack

I've checked the local shops, and they all say there is nothing available. Who builds Cimarron?

mack

Is anyone currently building a '73 Win/clone in .38WCF?? I've got a real hankerin' for a crib mate for a Colt I have gotten a hold of.

Well I had a chance to try out its sibling, one year newer and a custom order from Winchester. It had the same little hitch, not quite as pronounced but still there. I think it must be due to the slight bolt/stroke difference from the 2 3/4 inch guns. Anyways I going to run with it. geobru, don't ge...

Well, we ain't gonna live for ever, and no ones figured how to take it with 'em... so my thoughts are to pass it along to the right souls while we can!
Win- win, happy kid happy you.

OTH, I've got a 5D ("E" or "SE" ??) on my '94AE trapper 30/30. It works OK with the standard front post... sort of. My 150gr load, (moderate, Sierra Game King over 3031, 2000fps) shoots 1" over point of aim at 75yds. (the edge of the clearing from house). Sight adjustment is...

As I recall, the "Uncle Henry's Golden Spike" was a pretty good blade from a user standpoint, and they looked good to. That's a nice looking sheath for it.

Grizz,
I don't know about the Viking in particular, but it sounds like a cam issue. Cracked, maybe just gummed up. With my wife's machines, I always start with a thorough cleaning.

For what it's worth, a 205gr in pure lead from a Lyman 427098, as cast/un-sized, worked for me in two old "oversize" '92 bores. Red Dot and Unique Cowboy loads shot pretty well in both. If the '73 checks out as sound, they may work for you. If the bore is rougher than it looks, you will do...

Life is not boring! It's people that are boring! Chronic pain is a sure-fire buzz-killer tho! 'Chronic pain' is all fake, made-up by malingering patients who are drug-addicts. Even patients with multiple sclerosis don't have real pain, according to numerous 'pain specialists' I've talked to. Unless...

Doc, My cousin had a border collie when we were kids. He developed the the taste for fresh poultry. Every couple of weeks he would get off and do the rounds. My uncle bought a lot of chickens over the years. he never found a way to break that dog of killing chickens. My thought was to give the neigh...

mack

Well, no show on the guy with the '92 this week. May have been a BS story, or maybe he figured it was a $10,000 piece. I'm sort of disappointed, thinking I should have moved on the Mosquito, for trading fodder if nothing else. Any one had any experience with the SIGs? They seem to be nice little pie...

What lever gun chambering would you recommend for wooly mammoth and cave bears?

Water is back on! Steamed the line out, the freeze was about 40 feet from the barn, just under the edge of the access road. Had a nice day today, it almost touched 30 degrees, and the sun was warm. Moved some wood up to the house. More snow tonight they are saying, down to 10 right now.

mack

I would think you would have enough snow on the ground to insulate any pipe reasonably buried for the climate of the region. Our big scare for frozen pipes came last year when we got lots of very cold weather long before we had appreciable snow cover. The frost was very deep. Well below 6 ft in man...

mack

Well, water line to the barn is frozen, dippin' water from from tubs tonight for 7 ponies. Haven't seen this since the winter of '76-'77. I have folks coming into my repair shop trying to trade for snow blower repairs.... I passed on a SIG Mosquito .22, told him to bring something in a lever gun.......

Well good news and some bad news with the storm here on the Kennebec. Bad news is the dog can't get off the porch to pee until I go out and shovel. Good news is that I just got word from #2 son that he passed the kidney stone that's been bugging him for 4 weeks,(he was home drinking beer all day I t...

They are really hyping these storms. Most are non events if you've been around a few years. We routinely go off grid 3 or 4 times per winter for a couple of days at a stretch. (longest was 37 days, the fuel bill for the generator began to hurt) I can't believe the number of people that go over the e...

If it will be a "using" blade you might find a liking for that rubber bumper. I have a cold steel master hunter carbon v that is the handiest thing with that sticky grip.

Some of you guys are buyin' higher up on the hat tree than I am. I do a Stetson Sturgis when its cool and a palm leaf from Big Bend when it's hot, both with horse hair stampede strings.

Nice piece of wood! What is your draw? 60# @ 28" could stack pretty high if you draw 30-31". May take some conditioning, but will be worth it. Compound guys may poke a bit of fun at you at first, but when you learn to snap shoot well with a recurve they will wet their pants, while they try...

I don't particularly care for the guy , or his politics. (His acting is OK/so-so.) But I almost think he has a bulls eye on his backside, for all the poo he gets into.
