I went home from work to wash and wax the Ranger as well as chat with Dad about next weeks plans. While we chatted the TV was on FOX News and some sad news came up. A Minnesota man was hunting with his 8 year old boy for turkey. He told the boy to sit still while he stalked some birds. Well the boy ...

bigbore442001

I believe you can only take one bird in NH. Sooo..I don't see the great need for a second shot. Turkey hunting in the spring is a different type of hunting in that you are calling them in and waiting for the set up shot. My dad and I use NEF single shots with scopes mounted for turkey. We both have ...

I remember when in high school I first learned of the Bataan Death March. My teacher had a good grasp of history and its impact on each person in society. I am glad that he was able to convey that message. It is too bad that history has been watered down with the failed philosophy of political corre...

It seems that everytime we go to Wally World I don't buy anything. I know we get some things like paper towels and household stuff like that but it ends there. We will go to this super Wally World for such things and walk around while Mary shops. It basically underwhelms me.

It would be interesting to see what the rifle does, ballistically speaking.

In all of the years bumming through the woods and turkey hunting I have yet to find a morel in Massachusetts. Maybe I am in the wrong areas.

bigbore442001

I hear that the Devil Horse is a dangerous animal. Do you have any interesting tales to tell us?

bigbore442001

I'll try it but I will leave out the diced onion and diced tomato. I just can't warm up to those things.

That is my favorite woodswalking piece going. Except mine is a convertable in stainless with adjustable sights.

I generally carry it in a strong side pancake holster that was custom made. I found that Winchester Dynapoints shot the most accurate out of my gun.

bigbore442001

Use a scope.

Just kidding, my early morning humor.

I have firesights on my Super Redhawk and Mk 2. I found that a drop of superglue adds some reinforcement to the plastic rod set in place. This may help aleviate any fears you have.

bigbore442001

It really isn't accurate to label all of the people as anti gun in Massachusetts. The big problem is that the Greater Boston area has the political clout and tends to be anti gun. The politicians have a long history of granting jobs and favors in a form of socialism thus ensuring a secure vote. As y...

bigbore442001

Good shot. Have you ever considered handloading your own ammunition? I know that you can load a 50 grain bullet in the 22 Hornet case. Each firearm has it's own preferences but it may shoot very well out of your rifle. I am sure that if one applies oneself you can get a job in most places. Speaking ...

bigbore442001

I'm with you on that. Soon as the cottage sells I can do something such as change residence from the Bay State. It has its good points but the bad seems to outwieght many of them.

bigbore442001

Also that part of Massachusetts has always had economic problems. It will add to the woes of the area. It makes me mad to see that happen. My Dad and I love our H&R shotguns. With our style of hunting we've taken a lot of deer and turkey with them. It would be wonderful to see them back in opera...

When in college I worked at stop and rob for many years. They too had a policy of no firearms for the employees. I heartedly ignored that rule and kept my mouth shut. A few state police knew I carried and offered the advice of make sure you put them down.

bigbore442001

May I ask a stupid question? What are the attractions in Bali?

bigbore442001

I believe the actress was Beulah Bondi.

bigbore442001

I was shocked when Mary told me that Charlton Heston passed away. I know that we will all go but it was something that was a bit of a surprise. I had always liked his movies and admired his character. He had real values as an American and as a family man. I looked at some news services such as the B...

bigbore442001

Yes he will be missed. I am sad but from what I understand he was suffering from Alzheimers, thus he came to the end of a very good life. He was what I call a man's man. Personally I never really liked most actors. I believed they are too full of hubris but I always liked him. He came from a differe...

If you were in a position to act as wise counsel ,what advice would you give to someone who is interested in buying their first lever action firearm? What make? What caliber? What barrel length?

bigbore442001

I can understand the message to a point. My biggest has been a bout of unemployment last year that lasted a long time. I hate to say it but it didn't really build my character but made me a tad coarser.

Sixgun:

Wait until the fishers move south from New England to the Keystone State. They have done a number on house pets and small game in our area.

bigbore442001

I heard about their support of gun control as well as not giving to the US Olympic shooting team. Let them sit in the swill they pass off as food.

Another reason to spurn anything from Orca Winfrey.

It is beautiful. It has been too long since I walked the prairie earth and smelled the five essense of sage. The feel of the high sun on my back and endless vistas to tantalize my eyes. I too have a longing of sorts that is hard for some to understand to be in such desolate places. I have a fond mem...

bigbore442001

That is a great opportunity for those able to attend. I wish I had the extra money and the time off. I figured that it would be a 4200 mile round trip from my place. Just curious. Would you let someone use a TC Contender handgun in 45-70? Although I post on a site dedicated to the lever action rifle...

bigbore442001

Uncle W used #2's or BB's. A head or neck shot is ideal but once in a while you have to shoot them on the fly and the larger shot punches through the feathers. We always used full choke if possible but modified will work if you get close enough. Here in the northeast most states prohibit any birdsho...

I have a Martin Rebel recurve at the house. Forty pound pull at 28 inches. I have it set up for bowfishing. My hunting bow is a Bowtech Guardian compound.

bigbore442001

I am no expert but I usually get a gobbler or two each spring in heavily hunted Massachusetts. I'll tell you what I have learned over the years about turkeys in a nutshell. Let us start out with the shotgun. Ok. It is a 20 guage.That means you will have to be on the money a bit more than someone who...

I just read the post about the administration of a Minnesota high school that is barring a true hero from addressing and speaking to our ever confused young people. After reading it I thought about all of the stupidity and crack-pot ideas that a number of people have pushed forward. Maybe there is s...

There is very little that the Clintons do that surprises me. They have always had a crooked track record. Anyone here can look at that. What boggles my mind is how many people are stupid enough to support her. I still believe in what George Washington said about the most fundamental quality to serve...

I'd still go down by the lake and drink a woobla(whatever that is but I am sure they find it offensive) and take a portable BBQ with plenty of pork.

Maybe I am an oddball but when I consumed SPAM I would get a wicked headache. Sooo. I don't eat it.

bigbore442001

That is very impressive. I would love to do it but I would have to lose a good fifty pounds and get into really great aerobic shape. Hard to do in real life.

bigbore442001

Is SPAM organic?

bigbore442001

I want to say that TC made a commemorative Hawken with a medallion inletted in the buttstock. I can't think of anything else.

bigbore442001

I will have to agree with what Sobenk stated. Today the tax burden for families is abysmal. That is the big problem. Real estate taxes are by far the worst for some people . It makes me ill to see older people having to move out because the taxes have forced them to do so. I believe one of the great...

Ok. We all know what Raquel Welch looks like but here is a link to what a ciupaga looks like. I need to get one.

I tend to agree. I believe a lot of it is false affluence. How much of that is actually owned in some form of credit? Many people have sold their souls, so to speak, in order to keep up with the Jones. Also, I hate to say it but with such a hedonistic generation a meltdown would bring riots like we ...

bigbore442001

Hobie, thanks for that info. I pick up my copies of Rifle and Handloader at Borders. (I know, I should subscribe to 'em) I'm gonna roll over there at 2:30 after work. The only thing that bothers me about going to Borders is wading through the crowd of liberals, all sitting down in their indoor cafe...

Sounds like a great opportunity for someone wanting to go to Africa. I sincerely doubt I will go to Africa in the future. I don't have a huge interest in the place but Alaska is a different story. Been there and think about it all the time.

bigbore442001

It depends on what you want the gun for. Small game, varmint shooting. Home protection. Something to plink with.( what we call informal shooting) Shooting at formal matches. I am a died in the wool revolver man. I do own some semi autos but when I do carry a handgun it is always a revolver. In fact,...

Don't let your wife see this post. You will get whacked over the head with a cuipaga.

Unfortunately you are right in many ways Sixgun. It is a shame but getting back to the topic. Many people in this nation are looking for a single cause of the ills of society like a single germ for a cold. The sad truth is that all of the causes mentioned here all contribute to the problem. I will a...

Ok. In all seriousness. What kind of permit? Is it a permit to own and keep in your home? Is it one that allows you to carry on your person? It would be interesting to know.

1.My favorite condiment for such fare is pure sweet cream butter or nothing at all.

2. I happen to like to use the blue corn meal for corn bread. I know that paints me as an oddball but I like it better than yellow meal.

I'd try it. I have had tequilla with a scorpion in the bottle and got to eat the scorpion. Bitter and crunchy but still here .

I believe many towns are seeing this and are doing things to control some of the negative impact. The town I want to move to has done this several years ago. They have declared their town as a right to farm town. Many people from NYC moved in and complained about the smell of the dairy farms. So the...
