Had a corded Rapala that bit the dust after lots of fish, bought a corded Bubba that didn't make it two season and I wasn't keeping as much (one of my daughters became allergic to fish, so was adapting), bought a Bubba cordless (got lots of blades now) and been satisfied for the most part. Yeah...
I enjoy and respect wildlife, I give them their area and I have mine. My yard is for my family and I, farm cats fine, dogs fine, most other creatures (skunks, racoons, woodchucks, etc) they can have all the other pastures, woods and fields.
I've been playing with that Merlin App and it is really cool. Solved the mystery of a bird sound I was hearing in the evenings just before dark, turned out to be a Wilsons Snipe and if you go to Merlin's Song list it is the Winnow.
All my years of trying to catch them in the dark with pillow...
well it's going to be a muddy mess Saturday working cattle. Neighbor's corral has a low spot that is soft on a dry year, I swear you could lay 5ft of rock on top of it and it would all sink to nothing. Pasture grass is looking real good for them to start out.
Thanks. Yeah first goal is to get load developed and then don't screw with it. Practice on my range which can get 600-800yds if I want before the corn gets tall and then get out in more terrain and shoot some angles in some hills on property we own, and practice different positions (bipod...
Oh I am great at making things more than what they need to be and like I said I just enjoy trying different things. I'm familiar with Barnes and know what I have had success with but the Badlands has my interest and I have never played with Swift bullets. In all actuality a bullet is the...
So it's bullet selection time for reloading. Been doing lots of research and have read a gambit of opinions from ELD and Berger types being great for some to less desirable to guides (currently Bern shooting 168gr Federal loading just because) controlled expansion bullets like Accubond, Swift...
Permethrin is a turkey hunter/forager friend. Used it some last year on some work clothes and hunting pants and socks and it really helped, should really do that again as I keep finding ticks. Follow instructions on spray bottle. Picked mine up at scheels but Amazon works too
Got a 10mm Rock Island 1911 that I enjoy. Got a couple 357 mag revolvers of dad's that I haven't shot in years (S&W and cant remember the other right now but chrom with pearl handle). I used to like shooting them but ran 38 specials usually for plinking. Mix a random full power 357 mag and the...
Looks pretty sweet. I'm sure you got a list of little tweeks to still do and will find adjustments to make as you use it. In regards to the window comment above, I'm assuming you are putting in a couple black curtains while hunting
Well one thing I guess I didn't mention is getting a better LOP of my 12yr old daughter and I'm starting to like a little more forward grip angle if I can get it doesn't have to be vertical. I like the shim system that Grayboe Stocks has, especially for me because I seem to always have to put a...
Never tried Forster dies, judging by the price they must be a step above the Redding and RCBS I am used to. In the past I have always full length sized everything, lately my buddy has been doing more neck sizing with occasional full length sizing. What are your thoughts on that for a practice? I...
I picked up that gun last night, for the price of $650 and after I looked at it again I just couldn't say no with a brand new one being $1,150. You could see it did have a scope rail on it at one time but looking at the bold and the muzzle brake there was so little wear it either was cleaned...
