I'd sure be bragging on that hunt. Other than migratory birds, I am sol for bird hunting. The grouse disappeared after the turkeys were reestablished, and we have never had enough quail to hunt. I need to find a pay to play outfit. When I shoot pheasants it typically is at a tower shoot or the foll...

I’ve got a pair of rifles I prefer carrying now both are Mannlicher Schoenauer with full length stocks ones in 6.5x54 MS and the others in 7x57 . Both are light and kinda short but that’s kinda a moot point as I generally carry a double barrel shotgun as well loaded with a slug in the right barrel a...

There hasn’t been a human tooth in my mouth in about five years now .

…..you know, back when most people only had one gun so they had to make the best of it. One gun ! I always carry two or three shotguns for a single class at a sporting event just in case one malfunctions . So at a typical shoot I may have a dozen guns to shoot five events . No point in having the s...

I’ve not been to the gun club rifle or pistol range in close to a year I think . This past hunting season I checked the ML and the couple rifles in my front yard (I live in the country and own a decent amount on each side the yard).

I like the 264 and 25-06 just fine having killed more than a few deer with both cartridges . All the 6.5mm cartridges except the Crudmoor I’ve owned and killed with .

I hunted northeast PA for 5 or 6 years , Monroe Pike and Wayne counties . Would come up and do the first week .

My Son in-law bought an inexpensive Savage in 6.5 Creedmoor two years ago. He doesn't reload. It must be pretty popular as the local wally world and farm store always have ammo for it.

And if I can stand talking to them after awhile it becomes obv...

The Crudmoor is a solution to a problem that didn’t exist ! It’s no great secret I’m a big fan of the 260 REM , and in practical application the two cartridges are one in the same . I’ve owned a bunch of 260’s since the legitimization of the cartridge . I’ve also killed a huge amount of deer with th...

MEC is about the only game in town for loading 410. I converted my MEC 700 from 12 to 410. This is dedicated for 3". B.C.( before covid ) I picked up MEC grabbers in 410,28,20&12 among other stuff at an estate sale. The grabber 410 only does 2.5". LEE doesn't make the load-all in 410 ...

I had a Marlin 336SC Zipper for awhile . I used it as a two shooter since I loaded Nosler 60 grain Partitions for it . One in the pipe and one in the Mag tube . Thing actually shot fairly well . I’d wanted to kill a deer with it but never did before I liquidated it .

If I was carrying a 1911 on a daily basis I'd consider buying one of the Rock Island, or Turkish versions.
