    Long wait time to see dealer?

    If you're close to Knoxville, I'll send you the contact for the mechanic I've used for 25yrs. It will certainly be easier than going through a dealer.

    What to do with a Hog?

    Meateater has a few episodes on butchering, processing and recipes. I’ve only killed 1 here in TN. Made pulled pork roasts from the hams and shoulders then ground the rest. It was pretty good.

    Hunting Gear Thats Punches Above its Pricepoint

    Zeiss conquest 3-9*40 MC scope. They were $299 new a few decades ago. Now they go for around $400 on eBay and GB. I have 3 of them and the glass is still incredible! Brighter and lighter than my VX5 and and vortex scopes. Also the Zeiss Terra binos are way above others at their price point.

    Life and ugly guns

    As a longtime competitive long range shooter I hold an intense desire for accuracy and precision. That desire certainly transferred to my hunting firearms as well. While I could never imagine a wood stock on my rifles dedicated for precision shooting, I only seek beautiful walnut and deep...

    Only 1 reported in 500 and 1 ram from 501. All others are currently reporting zero. I guess they got all the big boys last year!

    He bit the hand that feeds him. 🤬

    Yes there is a lot that can be done for establishing dominance, building trust and a dog's confidence, reorganizing pack order etc. However when you have children in a home with a dog that has proven the willingness to bite, you have to decide if it's worth risking. My answer is no. I spent 9...

    Bolt Action Rimfire

    Don't overlook the Browning T-bolt. Excellent accuracy and has a longer barrel and larger stock than some mini 22s like a 10/22. It's a great transition rifle for younger shooters.

    Cartridge for 18" barrel?

    Don't forget the 7mmWSM. Dies are available and while brass may not be, you can resize 270/300WSM brass which will be much easier and cheaper to find than SAUM brass. Not sure why the 7WSM didn't catch-on like the others, but I think it definitely fits all your criteria points.

    7mm-08 Obsolete for a Mountain Rifle Cartridge?

    Barrett fieldcraft and Sako carbonlight are both under 6 lbs.

    Caliber suggestions.

    I suggest you check out a Barrett Fieldcraft in your choice of short action cartridges. Also a Sako Carbonlight. If hunting coyote and smaller the majority of time I would pick a 223 or 22-250. Pick up some heavier 62-75gr Federal Fusions, Swift's, or other softpoints for deer.

    What is the best piece of advice tht you have ever been given?

    "If you don't like the man you see in the mirror, change it. You're the only one who can." "Dedicated your life to something better than yourself, just remember to leave a little bit left over" - both from my Pop
