Just received the best of the day. A cousin I reconnected with this year forwarded some pics she had from her mom( my dad's sister) that had a bunch of VERY early Christmas' for me. Also, had some pics of my mom and dad when they were just dating. Lost my mom when I was 15 and I also struggle...
It was surprisingly bountiful for FAFO Santa here this year. Mama got me tickets to Tim Allen here and a new otter sled to replace the Cabelas one I have worn out, the boy got me a 10/22 stainless takedown and the princess got me a Carhart hoody and some Kennetrek gaiters. Really surprised and...
White Castle is not only the ORIGINAL fast food restaurant.....it is a wonder unto itself which only the glory of the Lord himself could have bestowed on us. That, BPTs and BNG are the REAL holy trinity!!!
My BIL has a sizeable towing, heavy towing, moving and recovery business in IN. I know he makes a lot of $$$$....but the hours of he and his workers, along with equipment costs/maintenance/facilities, insurance and equipment itself (especially) are pretty outrageous. When I was an LEO on the...
FYI this rifle is user changeable for caliber. They currently offer 223, 6GT, 6CM, 6.5CM,6.5 PRC and 308. All you have to do to change is loosen a T15 and unscrew the barrel by hand. The PRC does have a magnum bolt face that needs to be changed for the others and can be done without tools in...
I have a bunch of knives and have used most of them at least a couple of times on animals. Currently in my kill kit are a cheap Schrade gut hook with an ugly rubber handle i bought the first year I hunted (2003) and a Mora Allround with a 6" blade. The Schrade sharpens easily to very sharp...
I am good on guns I NEED......so here is one I have wanted and it's purpose. I just ordered a Seekins HIT in 6.5 PRC with an Arca rail. My intention for this is to get it dialed and then find an opportunity to shoot a mile. The farthest I have been so far is 1400yds. I am going to do some...
For reference, in CO we have a "15 round magazine" limit.....All of the County Sheriffs outside of the Denver/Boulder toilet openly announced on the passing of the "law" they refused to enforce it. To this day you can go into about any gun store that is not a national chain and buy whatever...
If anyone is even thinking about an Element in 6.5 CM I have a couple at work in Mountain Shadow with the bare stainless actions at a VERY VERY good deal. Low enough that I don't want to post it straight out. PM me if you are interested and I believe you will find the price pretty exciting. I...
The long and short of it is that it is pretty much dead as far as viability goes. The round does nothing others in it's neighborhood don't do equally as well (especially with the introduction of 7PRC) and since there is really only one ammo manufacturer (Winchester/Olin makes all Browning ammo)...
Dinner tonight....medallions of whitetail loin cooked in butter and garlic in the cast iron, roasted Brussel sprouts with balsamic and bacon, onion and portobello brown gravy and roasted potatoes. Wifey (who usually doesn't go for deer) was a clean plate club member....yay!!
As many of you may know, given the fickle nature of the Indiana gun season dates, this year I was faced with the choice of engaging in the mystical art of the arrow or only hunting 3 days. I tried shooting a bow at work a few times and found that due to some of the injuries to my right arm I...
