    Reduced loads for small game

    I load 158 grain semi-jackets for a .357 revolver in my .35 Whelen. I don't have the load off hand, but I belive it is 2400 powder. they work pretty good, but you have to aim carefully, because they can do a real number if you miss the head. I use them mostly for signal shots when we down...

    QDM-How do you feel about it?

    I'm against the enacting of rules and regulations forcing hunters to abide by the principles of QDM. AS far as I'm concerned, hunting should be about getting out in the field and enjoying nature and seeing game, spending quality time with friends and family. If game is taken, that's fine and...

    Does any one have plans for a boat blind?

    I'm looking for plans or suggestions for building a temporary blind for my aluminum boat. I only use it a few times a season for ducks on lakes and large ponds, so I don't want to do any major modifications to the boat. I'd like something I could assemble on the boat in about 15 minutes or so...

    I don't think there's any waterfowler's on this board!!!!!

    I'm a duck hunter, but not a fanatic. I get out 3-5 times a year. I love doing it, but there are so many other animals, birds and fish to go after in what seems like a very short fall season. Around here, most of the puddle ducks are gone by mid-October and then there's Ruffed and Spruce...

    Back up rifle for big game hunts

    I've got a .35 Wailin' as my main rifle with an old Enfield P-14 .303 Brit. as a backup. I know it can do the job, because I dropped my first moose with it. I think it allows me to poke around in areas I might not because I worry that if I breeak my rifle due to a fall, that my hunt would be...

    You have to make a choice

    My first choice would be the idiot, but the weapon of choice would have to be reading the bill over and over until the author suffers a slow painful death. Second choice would be moose with my .35 "Wailin'"

    What's scared you?

    I dropped a bear in an old gravel pit. After watching it for a half hour, I went to get some help to butcher and drag it out. Returning after dark, I found the spot that I had left the bear and it was not there!!! After weighing our options, we decided to load our firearms and travel in a...

    Blaze Orange

    In Ontario, we are required to wear a minimum of a vest and hat. I thought I would buy some "blaze camo", but I was informed that this is not legal in Ontario. When I'm after small game in early fall, I wear a vest and hat. Later, during big game season, I wear a blaze fleece parka and orange...

    More tumbling questions?

    I've been using corncob loaded with Dillon polish. I've tumbled something like 2500 rifle brass and I haven't changed the media. When it takes longer to polish, I just add more polish.

    35 Whelen on Moose

    I've only shot one moose so far (with a .303 Brit), but she dropped within 10 seconds and only walked less than 20 feet. I shot her twice @ 40yd. One through both lungs and the other through the heart. I have a Rem 7600 in .35 "Wailin'". I load it with 200 gr. Barnes "X" bullets. Judging by...
