    Florida Fun

    Saw some Booner iguanas hanging around the canals while chasing peacock bass.

    Anyone load 7MM-08 139LRX with RL-16

    I would try the 141gr. Hammer HBC or the 145gr. HHT. I've found the HHTs to be more accurate and faster than the Barnes but, to be fair, Hammer doesn't list RL 16 for those in the 7-08 either. Couple of RL 16 loads listed under the 180AI, though.

    Need help with understanding my groups

    ^this. I've watched groups from a proven rifle go all haywire, only to discover the suppressor has loosened. Also why I quite trying to make a quick-detach setup work on my hunting rigs.

    How to prepare trout

    This recipe from Matt Moore’s Southern Gentleman’s Kitchen was my preferred method for the somewhat meatier, brackish-water living speckled trout:

    How to prepare trout

    Gut, insert thin lemon slices into body cavity, place on bed of diced onions and parboiled potatoes, wrap in aluminum foil, nestle next to the campfire for 10-15 minutes. Best accompanied with a col'beer. Also, any Hank recipe is a sure winner...

    Something Positive About ICE

    ICE used to get the job done in my broke fraternity days.

    Cody

    I'm so sorry, @squirrel. Praying that you (and even the evil wife) find peace and solace in the 13 years of joy Cody brought you.

    What is the wait time going to be for suppressor approval starting 1/1/2026?

    Received approval today on trust Form 4's submitted on Jan. 6 and 7, so 24 and 23 days respectively. Not too bad.

    My unsolicited $.02: you're going to appreciate the shorter length more than you are the lighter weight.

    What are your 2026 Outdoor Plans

    Buddy, this is how useful idiots end up buried in a shallow hole and featured in a Netflix series.

    I don’t think it is exit wound damage. There were no bone fragments and no evidence of that kind of damage at the shot location.

    The Big Snip - How bad is it?

    Day before Valentine’s, huh?

    The Tax Man Cometh

    Agreed. The photo doesn't do it justice, but the wound was almost sliced rather than bitten. The meat at the top was more pulled into long fibers rather than chunks torn out.

    The Tax Man Cometh

    95gr. Hammer HHT out of a 25PRC at about 250 yards. Made a mess out of the inside of the chest cavity but not *that* big of a mess.

    The Tax Man Cometh

    Worse, a Hammer out of a PRC. Completely clean around the carcass. She was moving perfectly fine when I shot her, so I don’t think it occurred while she was still alive. For what it is worth, that is the same area in which the bullet exited. We saw a bobcat on camera the day before that...

    The Tax Man Cometh

    Shot a healthy whitetail doe this morning just before 8am. Morning was chilly and, even though she bounced into an overgrown cutover, I knew she wouldn’t go far so I stayed in the stand. Got down and recovered her just after 10. When I got to her, a rectangular slab was missing out of her...
