Nice work! Have you ever tried tying your drag line around the lower jaw in the mouth and looping it over the whole snout? It keeps the head up higher when your dragging it and keeps it from snagging. I just recently started doing it that way and I like it better.

86er

I think that's a little too much. I have one in 20g for sale for $850. My friends who use them swear by them and have had good luck. One thing you may or may not know is that there are different bushings available if you are going to use primarily one load. For instance, if you are going to use a lo...

I shoot a RSBHH, 7 1/2" 45 Colt. I am using 300gr Cast Performance at around 1290 fps. Off the bench with the scope, I regularly get 2 1/2" groups at 100 yards. I can keep them in 5" off the bench using shooting sticks or a makeshift rest. With the open sights I can keep an 8" gr...

Just an update for this Dec session of the Temp Forum:

We have 5 hunters and one non-hunter so far. The trip is looking good. We will gladly take a few more of you. Save those tax refund checks to send in your deposits!

I got exactly the same thing when I tried to use the free internet access in the hospital waiting room on Friday. I thought I could pass some time while my son had surgery. It just created even more anxiety knowing I was blocked from the forum. I see it more and more frequently.

Despite the strong opposition of SCI and other sporting groups, the California Fish and Game Commission expanded a statutory ban on the use of lead ammunition in condor "range" in central and southern California (about a 1/3 to 1/4 of the State). Lead ammunition is now prohibited in condor...

Great story Nath!

For everyone's information - here's how this worked: First, I randomly selected 3 judges from the list of Leverguns forum members and e-mailed them. They each agreed to participate. Second, I received the nominations via e-mail. As I received them I removed any identifying information and all names....

I suppose that goes on a Marlin?

Great X-Mas pass-along for a fellow forum-er! Someone has to appreciate that!

Thanks to everyone who made this possible - again!

FOLKS - DON'T FORGET TO CRUISE THE CLASSIFIEDS LISTED SEPERATELY ON THIS FORUM. I JUST LISTED THE FIRST ITEM OF THIS SESSION ON THE TEMP FORUM.

86er

Thanks, I'd like in.

86er

Thank you all - Baed on the info I'm comfortable putting 9 in the mag and 1 in the chamber and knowing I'm not stressing it out. It would be rare for me to load that much anyway but a plan is brewing....

86er

Thanks - just to be clear, that is 11 rounds IN THE MAG? or total capacity?

86er

My 94AE is a 20" barrel with a full length mag tube. How many are supposed to fit in the mag tube? I have never loaded more than 5, and I don't have an owners manual - just curious - and I don't want to shove more than I'm supposed to in there. Any other opinions or comments are welcome.

Kimcook I'm on the left with the straw cowboy hat and orange band, and the camo cowboy is a customer of no relation.

86er

That's a nice looking one. I was a little skeptical when I got one (1964 man. date) but I absolutely love that gun. Good luck with yours.

86er

This is a picture of some of the herd from two years ago. There are chocolate, spotted and white deer. The cull is for antlerless only. http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n5/TARJARBAR/fallowherd.jpg http://i108.photobucket.com/albums/n5/TARJARBAR/fallowweb2does.jpg http://i108.photobucket.com/albums...

It's a great way to test your cartridges and equipment, mentally prepare for hunting and get some tasty meat.

86er

A few of us got together to thin the private herd of fallow deer I have. They live and breed within the 500 acre enclosure. This was not a hunt. History dictates that about 130 deer is a stable population that can sustain a winter on the property. Yesterday we counted 150 before we started. I shot a...

Come on Charles - let's go get you an elk.

86er

Les: I'm saying that if you know your bullet has the integrity to penetrate enough at a given range it can be done. I've done it a number of times. I am also very willing to shoot again, and again if necessary without regard to damaging the hide or meat. The feral hogs are considered pests, a nuisan...

86er

I find the 300 grainers hold their path better past 100 yards. My 20" barrel spits them out at near 1550 fps. I have shot at 150 yards and I know where to hold to make that shot. More importantly, I get a good group at that range. My SBH with scope is sighted in dead-on at 100 yards and keeps t...

86er

Charles: If you want the best guide youv'e ever had you need to send me the dates. However, the deal is you cannot shoot more than 2 rounds at an elk. I am still traumatized from our last hunt together! Those poor bullets, almost a whole box of them - and those innocent mesquite bushes we killed! Ju...

The results from our customers using this ammo in 45-70 has been mixed. It has been inconsistent enough that I won't use it personally, but some folk swear by it. The most consistent factory ammo I have found and used on 40 something different animals including cape and water buffalo is the Grizzly ...

That is a really nice memorial and quite a thoughtful monument to your Dad!

I have currently shot 99 pigs between feral hogs and boar. Hope to make the 100 mark this year! I tell customers to aim right in line with the front leg, about 1/3 up the body. Also, if the pig turns its head there will be a distint line formed by the wrinkle. Just behind the line is a great shot. P...

For the local whitetail season I'll be using a SBH Hunter 45 Colt w/ Grizzly Cartridge 300gr Cast. Sighted dead on at 100 yards w/ 2.5X scope. For the hog hunt and other hogs I'm using the same 45 Colt load as above in a 94AE. Taking the 1886 to Africa w/ Grizzly Cartridge 405 gr Kodiak bullet@ 2120...

86er

I think you are right on for an animal between 150-200 pounds, but I refer to your "kill zone" as the "vital zone" (6 of 1, 1/2 dozen of other). I think the 8"X11" should be the boundaries to start within during shooting practice. However, the goal should be to keep sho...

My Dad found this gun was he was a kid. It has a tang sight w/ adjustable aperature and a folding rear sight. Take-down. I don't know who made it but it is a Wards-Western Field .22 pump. Killed probably near 100 squirrels in the neighborhood when I was growing up. Still use it to take squirrels and...

Congratulations! I just started my 20th year on 9/15. I can go next year but I have two babies - so I guess I'm signed up for at least another 5.

There's a little bit of a gap there with .284 kind of in-between. Leaves out all the 7mm cartridges.

86er

OK - I have an opportunity to hunt on a private place that only allows black powder (or equivalent substitute) muzzleloaders or cartridges. How they would know the difference w/ cartridges, I'm not sure but I wont break the rules. I have American Pioneer Powder FFg for my MZLDR. I want to use my 45-...

Let me know what you decide to part with. I can come get it/them. You will know that they are nearby and if you ever want them back I would be happy to return them. Only you can decide which ones to keep - but first on the list of keepers should be anything with sentimental value.

86er

Very cool photos. I wonder what the bear was thinking when he/she decided to wander out on the bridge.

Why waste a perfectly good dead relative or friend when you can feed a hungry family with them. Let 'em age for a few days to tenderize the meat and set the BBQ on medium for a couple hours. Probably falls off the bone.

Projected laser sighting can be a mixed blessing. There is no doubt they aid in low or no light shooting. However, to properly identify the target and determine the aggressors intent a flashlight should be employed anyway. The laser can have a convincing effect on someone spotlighted by it. However,...

I have had one customer with a 338 Federal. He shot and elk, a whitetail, two hogs and a four-horned sheep. The results were comparative to similar bullet/velocity combinations. At the time I thought -"It shoots like an '06, but a shorter cartridge". I shot it at the range just a few shots...

Real nice gun and great caliber! The fact that your brother and you were in the same place at the same time is a step in the right direction. Hopefully making amends with the return of the rifle helps things along. Looks like good bear medicine there.....
