    Rimfire cans, what do you have?

    I have a dead air mask. Unless I am using a super high velocity round, it is amazingly quiet. If I am using something like a velocinator, there there is a slight first round pop. It is quiet enough that if I am in the garage with a standard velocity CCI round my wife can’t hear it in the...

    Nice rifle for a teenager to pass down

    Just a suggestion. For not a ton (guess it depends on your definition of ton) more, you could have the local HT gun guru p_ham build a custom gun for you. He and I have traded emails and his prices are/were very reasonable. Just sayin!

    Radical Prostatectomy

    Probably a little TMI but… I had a prostatectomy in 2013. I did a ton of research and had a actual surgeon do the procedure vs the robotic. I had mine done in Denver. The Dr had done over 4000 when he did mine. He explained a surgeon can actually feel cancer while doing the surgery. He...

    Sunday Pic of the Day

    More from Alabama turkey season. Cool little box turtle out and about in the 80 weather. I did see a snake and almost had a heart attack. We were moving into a set and I did a Quick Look for snakes before sitting down. Apparently, I didn’t look good enough. As I was about 2/3 of the way...

    New mexico Unit 15

    I had that tag a few years ago as well. I saw tons of elk and had a lot of opportunity. I did see a local guy shoot a big bull with a rifle (over three hundred yards and 5 shots in less than 30 seconds.). It was an absolute crazy thing to watch with my son. If you hike, you can find good...

    7MM-08, max range for deer/elk?

    I think Buzz uses a 7mm-08 in elk and deer. He might be a great source if he views this one. My son took his cow cross-canyon (laser range finder verified) right at 400 yards. The cow dropped at the shot with 140 Accubonds. Best of luck.

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    I am two years from retirement and my accounts are pretty close to following the S&P average…not exact but close. I know I might miss out on an upswing but…I am comfortable with my CFO’s plan!
