    Ultrasonica cleaner

    Varmintor 4.0/banish 30?

    I completely agree with you. I ordered the 4.0 in mid November this year I recently got an email saying mine was received by the ATF on January 25 so it took over 2 months for mine. On the other hand I have the varmiter 3.0 and really like it.

    Air rifles

    I have the Benjamin trail 1500 .177. I used it as my trapping gun I have no problems dispatching coyotes with it. I usually just take one shot to the head I have tried lung shots and with certain pellets you will get complete pass throughs.

    North Dakota State "B" Boys Basketball Tournament (GO STANLEY BLUE JAYS)

    Id say there's a good chance that shot will make sportscenter top 10. I'd say there's also a good chance the kid that about blew his knees out in celebration will make the not top 10

    Lake Winnipeg Update 2017

    When we were up there the 3rd week in January we stayed at the canalta in Selkirk. The first night a group of guys had a sled house stolen out of the back of their pick up they never touched anything else that was strapped down

    Lake Winnipeg Gear

    There are some pick ups diving on but they are limited in some areas. There are quite a few areas where the ice broke up when it was 15-18" thick and created some big ice piles The atvs without tracks are getting to most places the snow is hard enough to dive over with them.
