    if your Rifle was a Vehicle

    Browning A-Bolt. I wonder how far apart the Miroku and Toyota factories are. (ETA: Apparently its a few hundred miles or several hundred kilometers.)

    New shotgun on way.

    I liked the Outlander better than the Ultima, but the Outlander safety is an accident waiting to happen. If you walk around with it on a sling , keep an eye on it.

    Model 42 and TSS

    Every gun I've ever fired much TSS in shows scoring in the bore. It's safe to use, but you may not like how the gun looks after you do. I will not shoot it through and expensive gun nor an heirloom.

    Bye Bye Hoyt

    So if I was in the market for a Satori, does this mean it's now ok to buy a Chinese knockoff instead?

    A little humour for your day

    I gave my wife dish sponges for Christmas. She liked them. I also gave her the latest greatest Samsung smartphone. The sponges I got, along with a selection of other junk, from dollar tree so she'd have something else to open. That's a trick I learned when our kids were small. I'd go to...

    New shotgun on way.

    Sights on a shotgun are like teats on a bo' hog. Nothing is faster than pointing. Get some silhouettes and test it for yourself.

    Looking for a travel trailer

    If you've never used one, rent first. Airbnb is probably the cheapest way. I went that route a few times to help me decide. I came away disliking travel trailers and thinking there's no way they're not all crap.

    When does the fever hit you? (Buck fever)

    Back when I did get excited with a gun, it was after. With a bow, it's before. I learned to wait until I calm down before drawing.

    New shotgun on way.

    Get at least 100 rounds of 1.25oz or hotter loads to break it in. Winchester has a magnum dove out these days that's about the cheapest for that. If you get out of order in your loading sequence you can lock those up to the point you need to drop the trigger group to get the shell out. It's an...

    Retail Theft Impact on Purchased Goods

    Our local Academy Sports is moving locations because of that. Several stores down the way from there closed up for good. The tax cuts given those businesses originally are another way we pay for those criminals.

    Let's Hear About your favorite Wheel guns.

    Ruger GP100 .327 is a lot of pop with relative little kickback. The one I have is particularly well made. I also had the SP101 version. It was a bit rough and nowhere near so smooth to shoot. After deer season I sometimes go to a food plot to plink the overgrown purple top turnips. 85gr loads...

    Hunting Leases/Kids Hunting/Drury Syndrome

    I mean this in the most helpful way possible: Get over yourself. You'll enjoy life more.

    Hunting Leases/Kids Hunting/Drury Syndrome

    I have several different properties for deer. My kids have always preferred the brown n down opportunities even tho they're more likely to see deer on the trophy property. Killing stuff is more fun than watching stuff. Another thing is when we were kids we could go hunt small game without...

    .32H&R jframe has six shots. Hot loads are more pop than .380.

    Most overrated band of all time

    Can't believe someone used AI to make a forum post on bands. It's sort of like how the edge plays guitar, tho. U2

    What you all cookin for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day

    The trick to making a ham edible these days is a few hours indirect on the Weber kettle. I had given up on ham. I understand we are also having tater salad, sweet tater casserole, macaroni & cheese, no collards for some reason (what is that even all about?!), banana split pie and a chocolate...

    Left handed rifle help

    I'm not sure why we're still using handed rifles; especially when the majority of people are backwards. I'd talk him out of .270 and into a Beretta BRX-1. Cartridge isn't all that important as long as it's affordable by the case. Later he'll appreciate being able to swap the bolt around for...
