That is a good deal. Snatch them up while you can. You will be set for caps for a long time.

I do the same thing when I see an opportunity.

I know what a corn dog but is there something special about the Fletcher's brand?

bigbore442001

Don't laugh but here in Massachusetts a lot of hunters have gone to blackpowder/muzzleloading only. Many hunters lost their licenses to carry or firearms ID when the laws became much more stringent concerning past offenses.

bigbore442001

Nice pictures. I have been fortunate enough to have seen some of those places first hand .

bigbore442001

I won't be able to hunt until April 28th in Massachusetts and May 1st in Connecticut. I have been practicing my calling to warm up though.

I know all of us have failed in the eyes of God in some way, shape and form but this is a different case. Sure I feel bad for his family but what irks me is the hypocrisy of it all.This goes beyond the average working man who went astray on his wife. This man was elected by the people to act as a st...

Wolverine fur makes great insulation. Snare that sucker while it is still prime.

Do they ever sell fried tofu at these fairs?

bigbore442001

I know people probably tire of this but I don't mind the cold and snow. In fact I hate to see winter ending a bit. It seems to me where I live we didn't have a really snowy winter. We had a lot of warm and rainy spells in between the snowstorms. That makes more of a mess than anything else. In fact ...

I'd like to hear more of what they have to say. I too have a pound of that stuff lying on my shelf for the 45-70. I have loaded some in the past for the 45-70 in the TC Contender.

I have mixed veiws on home schooling. The reason being is that I worked as school teacher in the public system for a number of years and have seen students who were homeschooled. Granted they were a small number but all seemed to have some academic deficit in one or more areas. In a way it makes sen...

With the weakening dollar you will see more foriegn owned real estate in this nation.

I do my best to refrain from anything made in China. That trade will be our downfall as I believe it already has .

It seems that their traditional line of knives are still made in the US while their more oddball looking ones are made overseas. I agree on the sentiment.

I knew of a tweaky hippie chick that had a prairie dog for a pet. She told me that it bit her pretty hard . She didn't realize that they were that bad. Then I showed her pictures of one of my summer safaris out to the Dakotas repleat with the landscape covered in dead prairie dogs from my direct act...

We have been getting rain and snow alternately. This weekend in southern New England is expected to get a lot of rain between tonight and tommorrow night. As far as ice fishing is concerned,half of the ice on the lake is gone. I can cruise much of it in my canoe if I want to do so. All in all we did...

Just curious. If they are nocturnal, where do they hide during the day ?

bigbore442001

I wonder if it would be worth a short trip to hunt feral hogs in the Keystone State? Are there enough numbers to warrant time spent in pursuit?
In addition, how receptive are landowners in that area to hunters asking permission? Are they pretty good about it or is it hard to gain access?

bigbore442001

I'd like to see the changes in property tax. Too many people are pressured to lose their homes in some areas of the country.

Also, I'd like to see a flat tax rate. Everyone pays 10% no matter what.

bigbore442001

In all honesty I do love the snow. It would not be winter without it. But the deer herds tend to suffer in northern New England. There are some huge deer in Maine. It is not unusual to see deer taken that dress out well over 200 lbs and some close to 300. But the population is rather sparse. I know ...

bigbore442001

That is so true. Today things have changed. This experience was very rewarding and exhilarating. I love to teach but often I don't get the internal reward when I do a lesson. This was totally different. I felt like I was in my element and the people paid full attention and grasped the material. The ...

I am soon to head a bit north of me to teach a handgun safety class to a large number of people. I have been doing this off and on for several years and this will be the largest class that I will have taught. I am excited about teaching a group of people who will pay attention and express an active ...

I'll state that the first thing that these hoplophobes will go after will be the .50 caliber Browning rifles such as the Barrett and other makes. The ownership of such guns is small compared to the rest of the population and it would be an easier target.

bigbore442001

Hmm. Maybe I should call in sick. Good reason to do so. His story is quite fascinating and is a cogent demonstration why even men of faith need to have the means to protect themselves as well as the helpless.

It is tough when family moves out like that . At one time family did move but usually next door or a couple of streets away. Today is a different age.

bigbore442001

That is so true. We have been blessed with a political system that values individual freedom above the needs of the state. Unfortunately that has changed in the last generation. It seems that the people who want a government agency to carry them from the womb to the tomb has increased in population ...

EU countries supplying the UK are not legally obliged to meet these UK minimum legal standards; as a result an estimated 70% of all imports would be illegal to produce in the UK. I find this to be odd. No wonder they are having trouble. When the citizen pig farmer is being subjected to restrictions ...

Yesterday I was able to get out of work early and go with Dad to the Springfield Sportsmans Show. We go to have a good time, check out the outfitters and then have supper together. While perusing the isles, I chatted with a couple who have a camp on the provincal island of Newfoundland. I was surpri...

Start whacking wolves with the 45-70.

I would like to be able to shoot a wolf one day. On second thought, I would like to shoot more than one.

bigbore442001

I'd love to have a wolverine hat. Be quite the conversation starter.

bigbore442001

I wish I still had summers off.

bigbore442001

I think a Keith style bullet in a 22 WRM would be wonderful. It would make an effective bullet for tougher varmints but the thing is that speed sells. I don't think the majority of the shooting public would go for it.

bigbore442001

Snow and Nealy are great axes. Still made in the good ole US of A. I have a kindling axe I keep in my truck at all times. It comes in handy for all sorts of jobs.

I hate to say it but the Marbles is made in China if I am not mistaken.

bigbore442001

I never think of that part of California as having any sort of hunting. I had always assumed that the majority of the hunting was in the north and Imperial Valley.

bigbore442001

I have owned both calibers and like the 22 WRM better. The only advatage I see with the 17 HRM is one of legality. Some of our southern New England states do not allow rifles or handguns larger than 22 long rifle to be used at night for raccoons, oppossums and other varmints. It does give you some b...

Several years ago, the State of Maine allowed trained trappers to use snares to trap coyotes in areas that they were negatively impacting the deer herd. The first year that they did this the deer kill in those areas doubled. I know this for a fact due to one of my old friends was one of the trappers...

bigbore442001

As stated above, they are the largest member of the weasel family.They are like fishers or locally refered to as fisher cats on steriods. They have thick brown fur and non retractable claws. If a wolverine is more testy than a fisher cat they I have to respect that animal. I have trapped fishers a n...

bigbore442001

Normally I don't watch these shows a lot. The bar was pretty much empty so I wanted something on. I tend to dislike how these shows are set up on private ranches and game farms. To me many of the shows do not portray real hunting. At least that isn't hunting that I do.

bigbore442001

Too bad the American Minutewoman didn't kick him really hard where the sun doesn't shine.

bigbore442001

I needed to get out of the house today. Sooo I took a long walk to check out some land that I hunt on and pull down a couple of stands. Needless to say I left the lock key for one at home and the other has the ladder portion frozen in the newly flooded ground. So I pulled one stand sans ladder. Afte...

My boss is a woman. I don't believe I will relate that one at work tommorrow. But it is funny.

bigbore442001

The mini guns are great for deep concealment or when weather doesn't permit to carry a decent gun. It is better than throwing a rock when you think about it.

I am glad that this man was able to defend himself against such a miscreant.

bigbore442001

I agree with the one shot. When I shoot a max load in the lightweight single shot I can't feel a thing if it is aimed at a turkey. It seems that you don't notice anything but the interaction of sighting the bird, squeezing the trigger and recovery from the shot.

bigbore442001

Out of the TC Contender, all manner of 22 WRM shoots accurately. It is odd that they all seem to group tight as can be. With the Ruger SS, the bets performer is the 45 grain Dynapoint from Winchester.

bigbore442001

I'm not advocating vigilantism but I know of someone who discouraged this behavior in their own neighborhood. There was a man who lived in a large town with a long industrial and working class background. What America was a couple generations ago. The scum of the earth moved in and the quality of li...

Many years ago I had a student make one for me as a special project. It still have it and it keeps you warm as toast. Very interesting design.

Don't laugh but I drew a card today at work. It came out pretty nice and she was very happy that I put in the effort.

Don't forget tommorrow is St. Valentine's Day. The ommission of that little date in the calendar can be a point of great pain and suffering for many. We'll be celebrating a day early since we both have the day off. I'll take Mary out to a nice restaurant and a little shopping. I will make sure I don...

I have to wait until April 28th for Massachusetts and I believe May 7th for Connecticut this year. It makes for a long dry period. Dad and I use an H&R single shots. I have a 3.5" chambered 12 guage which has a steel weaver style mount tig welded to the top and an Aimpoint. It is the turkey...

I do all of my casting outside near the deck. What I do is to let the pot heat up and walk away until I can see at a distance that it is fully melted then commence to casting.
