    COVID

    My wife and I are just getting over COVID. She started symptoms last Sunday after a trip to Knotts Berry Farm with a friend that Friday. Sure as shootin', I got it by Monday. It was not too bad. Various issues at times - runny nose, burning nasal passages and sinuses, general body aches...

    A loooong time ago -

    I have not been on this forum in years. I joined back when Oscar started it. I will now check it all out and see if I find any other oldtimers.

    Nosler Lead Free Ballistic Tips

    Has anyone tried the 36 gr .224 version? I loaded some up for my .22-250 in a load that should run about 3800 FPS. A friend of mine that owns a machine shop cut one of these bullets in half, and they look to be a jacket filled with little particles of copper. He says they vaporize ground...

    Good start to 2011

    My son, Michael, our friend, Brad and I went on a DFG Heritage Apprentice Hunt on Jan 8 out towards New Cuyama. This was Michael's second year hunting, and he is much improved. Always a good rifle shot, he's now pretty good with a shotgun, too. Two shots and he had his two birds.

    Prairie Dogs

    A few of us got together and went out to Seligman, AZ to shoot some prairie dogs. Things were pretty slow on Saturday for some reason - we saw very few dogs out that afternoon. On Sunday, though, the gates opened and there were tons of them out there. I didn't take my bench and set it up this...

    CZ Warranty Service

    I bought a CZ 452 Varmint in .17HMR a couple years ago, but haven't shot it much other than one prairie dog trip where it didn't see a whole lot of use. In getting for another trip this past July, I realized that the stiff new bolt wasn't getting any easier to cycle and then looked at one of...

    Michael got a new bow

    After sitting dormant for a couple years, Michael decided it was time to start shooting a bow again. His interest was reawakened at my hunting club's 4th of July "All Sportsmen's Challenge." One of the events was archery. He has always seemed to have a knack for shooting a bow, even at 4...

    AZ Prairie Dogs

    A bunch of friends, my 12-year old son and I went to Seligman, AZ last weekend to blast some prairie dogs. We literally had a blast. Stayed at a funky Route 66 motel (The Stagecoach 66 Motel) in Seligman because our usual haunt, The Grand Caverns Motel, was hosting a rodeo and was booked...

    No CA elk tag for me

    :( It would have been pushing things a bit anyway, since my last single daughter's wedding is the weekend after the hunt I applied for.... Now we will have to wait and see if my son gets drawn for a cow tag. It is the first time he has been eligible to apply for big game here, so he has no...

    Buddy just got back

    Jorge and Moe just got back from Zim. They had a great time, although Jorge got chewed on a bit by a leopard. He tried for a heart shot, got one or both shoulders (I'm not sure - I just had one conversation with him,) and then they had to track him in the failing light. Jorge saw a large...

    My personal experience with an illegal immigrant this weekend

    I was off taking a bunch of older Boy Scouts (Venturers, actually) on an "action pistol" shoot at Burro Canyon on Saturday. We ran them through 3 pistol stages using a plate rack and various distractions and a final 3-gun stage. They all had a great time, and we stayed until the place was...
