That sucks. Ice for a couple of days, then heat.

By the way, if you bake Pheasant in something like Golden Mushroom soup, it becomes quite tender and is the best flavor of any bird.

As with any living mammal, to reach old age the individual must learn and be willing to prevent harm to itself. If the will to live is strong enough, the individual will be able to defend themselves with any means at hand to the extent which is necessary. In other words, you rarely grow old unless y...

One of our Terriers sits on both verbal command and ASL command. Since SightHunter is deaf, we teach our dogs all commands in both English and ASL. The other Terrier, a one year old Rat Terrier named Masked Marvel, is still struggling with the concept that we are not always wanting to hold him when ...

Oh, yes I do purchase less expensive and less features sometimes. I have a Stevens model 200 rifle. The stock is cheap, but the metal parts are all Savage brand quality with outstanding accuracy. It does not have an accu-trigger. One of these days, it will get one and a better stock at the same time...

I gave my son my 870 Wingmaster 20 gauge purchased new back in the mid 80s, and had it fitted to him due to his right handed-left eye dominant situation. It still looks almost new and still cycles as slick as oiled glass. If Remington still had the same quality now, they would not be facing bankrupt...

Former Army Infantryman here. If I feel the situation requires me to pull a gun on another human, my old training kicks in and they cease to be anything other than a threat until it is over. Two times in my life it has happened that I was threatened with violence and I had to be ready and willing to...

Back when they were first becoming common, the primary mode of transportation was either horse or foot. Some laws have come about since that time, and lever action firearms really are based on an older technology. Yes, the little changes to accommodate the modern laws could be added or designed in. ...

My hands literally attack blued steel. So for practical purposes stainless is the way I go if possible. Here's a "Me too". Can't own a blued handgun. They rust both in hand and on belt. Same with long guns, so they are either Stainless, Phosphate/Parkerized (PTR91), full stock (Garand) or...

I can just imagine the guffaws from the gun writers. Why, even the thought of a moderate load with a lead bullet being able to be accurate, much less put meat on the table, is worthy of ridicule and scorn. Only the latest laser accurate light speed projectile will kill. Deer are much bigger and toug...

Yes. Next year it will have to change.

I have known a few who would be able to carry that out.

It might have been iron. I didn't pay attention to that. I guess I need to go back and pay a little more attention.

Watched it again. I didn't hear it mentioned what the material was. Cannon have been used with almost any projectile and material that was handy during a battle.

If, and that is a big if, I ever get a chance to hunt a moose, I would probably use either my Marlin 336 in .35 Remington or my Guide Gun. I have read a little, and the consensus seems to be that the .35 Remington is good enough if the bullet is placed well. Of course, a white tail deer can run a lo...

Round lead balls worked for a long time before jacketed bullets became available. It is obvious that they still work when used as intended.

Good news.

That candle lantern looks great. I don't know how cold it gets where you live, but I can see it being useful for power outages in the winter. It would help with the heat it puts out, as well as the light. Our winters in the Dallas area rarely have much bad weather. A couple of weeks where we might g...

Slingshot ammo comes in little steel balls, and it could be propelled a little faster. A spring fired toy cannon could be a lot of fun with those metal balls. I guess i will have to get some iron pipe and start playing with it until I can make it work. To avoid broken windows, maybe I will need to w...

Cool. Years ago, my kids had some which used a sprocket at the back to hold the rubber bands. It was a plastic sprocket and the trigger would catch the sprocket and hold it from turning. Each trigger pull released 1 rubber band. I think it held 8 or 10 shots. It was purchased at a gun show. Www.the-...

He had a great idea for a holster. I have seen a few like that, but I am not sure if they are copies or the real thing. It sounds as if he was born tough. To be only 18 when he killed the rustlers who killed his father is rather unusual. The rest of his career sounds as if he stood firm for what was...

Always check the crown, if a rifle won't shoot after bedding it's usually the crown. I have an old 700, in 17 Remington, other then fouling that tiny bore it's a bug hole group shooter after a crown touch up. Brownells has recrown tools and fairly cheap if no access to a lathe. I am not fond of pla...

Now is a good time for her to be asking about whether her cholesterol levels may have led to this, and to be starting on something to help prevent any more such incidents. Statin drugs or fibric acid drugs to lower the cholesterol and fish oil with EPA and DHA to help lower the tendency for the plat...

I realize that I am really inexperienced in reloading compared to others on here, but what seems logical to me would be to load about 50 rounds with a 150 grain bullet and maybe 25 of them with 1 powder and 25 with another. Try using powders listed for the lowest pressure for the velocity and work t...

I wonder how much the CEO and other top execs make at the Parent company which owns Remington. Obviously a lot more than they should.

There is enough proof of the .357's capability to handle the job that there should not be any further doubt. The ballistics, the pictures of harvested game, and the stories from people who are known to be honest and truthful are all plenty to show the abilities of the .357 Magnum.

PillHer's Remington 700 SPS youth model in 30-06 is a tack driver. 165 grain bullets usually give 1/2 minute of angle or less, and 180 grain bullets about 1 minute of angle. My Remington 700 ADL 30-06 with synthetic stock is doing good at 1&1/2 minute of angle at its best. My wood stock Remingto...

Not any moose close to Texas. It would be quite a drive from where I live to go hunt one. I would like to try it.

Sadly, the days of beautiful hand fitted firearms which are found on store shelves for a reasonable price were over before I was able to start purchasing. I do have an older Marlin which was made before I was born, and it was purchased used from a pawn shop. The older firearms were, for the most par...

I rarely answer surveys with any truthfulness. What may or may not be in my possession is no business of anyone who takes surveys. It can be fun to mess with the people who cold call you for a survey. There is usually no need to be rude, but silly or nonsensical answers can be amusing.

I am just slightly North of Waxahachie. That is a couple of hours from the San Antonio area, so it is unlikely that I would have a chance to catch you.

Isn't that one part of the napkin ring series? Why would he cranbury it for such a long time? Could he have been stuffing it for a purpose? I can't follow any reason to do that. I just don't giblet.

Glad you figured it out. Once you get it fixed you need to shoot it and find out if it is anywhere near accurate. Puzzles can be fun.

Congratulations on giving a good home to a rifle in need of a place to stay. Some of those unfortunate firearms are homeless due to circumstances beyond their control and were not abused. Hope it appreciates you and never gives you any trouble.

In Texas, that would be on overgrown monster with shrunken antlers. The anemic border collie sized deer here in Texas are bred for antler mass the size of the deer. Well, almost.

Lots of good people on here, even if we do have a few such as myself who are interested in puns. Just a warning, I am not the wurst of the punsters on here.

It sure was nice of that little bunny to pose there with Nath's rifle. I seldom get a chance anymore to have such helpful animals pose with my firearms.
