    When y'all go hunting do you use ear protection, suppresors, or go all natural. I don't think I've seen anyone hunt with the ear muff style hearing protection on.

    That looks like good timing for me it should be colder by then which will help with the strain of hunting in hot weather.

    Feral hogs may be hunted on our WMAs during any open season and with the gear allowed for those seasons. High powered rifles may only be used during the dates of firearms deer season. In southeast Louisiana, feral hogs can be found on Pearl River WMA. You don’t need tags for hogs, but you...

    Now the toughest part... picking out ammo so many options there must be a guide out there that's on picking ammo. Round nose vs spitzer. Partions vs solid copper vs FMJ vs soft point vs hollow point. Flat base vs boat tail.

    Thats good to know! My father is of the opinion that boar is to wild and the meat tastes rancid which I never understood because if the meat tasted bad why would people hunt it. I admit I'm not much of a cook but I can follow directions really well.

    Hello from Louisiana

    It looks like it will last me a long time the only minor issue with it is the free float is not really free floated I can't stick a dollar between the stock and barrel. I'm not sure what effect on the accuracy it will have.

    There is a wild life management area within 10 minutes of my house! I'll be waiting till the temperature gets into the 70's before I go hunting I don't think my health would allow me to go when it's any hotter and I'll be bringing lots of ice to cool the meat down. I spent some time on YouTube...

    Hello from Louisiana

    I must say the people on this forum are the nicest that I have ever met on a forum and after reading around I went out and bought my first rifle today a Ruger American in 308 Winchester with a vortex 3-9x40 scope. It's no Remington 700 or falkor petra or a howa but I think it will work.
