Well, that’s kind of a two-part “Maybe, but not really” answer.
While the heating unit is in the trailer, the exhaust is outside the trailer. So, no, there are no fumes in the trailer…BUT there needs to be an exhaust. The Exhaust is going to be wind direction dependent: it’s possible that an...
Right, got out to the range yesterday to do some more shooting, this time with a new bullet: .45 cal Hornady XTP 300 in a sabot.

Average: 1565.1
Spread: 18.7
STD Dev: 6.7

That’s a good point - I forgot that part. I run two 6v 210 ah batteries with 2x 100watt solar panels - so far it hasn’t been a problem for me…but I can imagine it might be if it’s dark for 3+ days…
I have one in my home-build hunting trailer (7x14 v-nose high roof) - insulated roof but just plywood on the walls. The space is obviously very small.
I have been super impressed with the unit. Out here it will keep the trailer at a very cozy 65 degrees on its lowest setting (*about 18...
I have two upland guns…a Franchi AL48 20ga auto and a Browning Citori Ultralight Feather.
Truth is, the Franchi fits better and is actually 1/2# lighter. But I truly hate chasing my shells in the field.
When I was hunting in Cali, I could get OTC tags for a very limited number of areas. Access was mostly public lands.
Public perception: in SoCal there was a lot of anti-hunting hate out there. I rarely felt comfortable discussing my hunting in a public setting. More than a few people were...
Right, that’s the big question, isn’t it? I wasn’t able to source any Blackhorn (and those prices!) this year and ended up with classic 777.
As I understand it, it’s generally unhealthy to leave a muzzy dirty. Even with my rifle being stainless, I thought it best to just keep a proper...
I had a chance to escape for a rare Monday Morning at the Range today…given the options in front of me it seemed like a better choice than swapping out a bunch of wall sconces for my Beloved.
Rifle: CVA Accura MR-X.
Load: 295gr. Power belt over 2x 777 pellets.
First shot (clean barrel)...
I don’t fear coyotes, bobcats, foxes, deer or any other wild critters on my lease…they want nothing really to do with man.
I do fear Man and Dogs though…private lease or not, that stuff happens.
So yeah…I carry the legal protection TN grants. I hope I never have a bad run-in…
This is going to be a very interesting journey - I'm going to keep this thread updated with pix as we go along. I went out to the Lease this morning and talked to the crew doing the logging. Really, really nice guys and the Deer Driver is a hunter. He saw the game cam and said to the foreman...
Yes. Exactly once.
It was in SoCal, Rand Mountains area I think. I saw it, walking super slowly…maybe 5 feet away.
I turned, blinked, look back…and it was “gone”. I’m sure it was just the Camo working in full detail.
Of course, no camera’s back then. So…yeah. I could have been...
Re: Middle Tennessee:
One caveat to the bucks/does: it’s Antlered vs. Antlerless deer. Antlered deer are defined as a having one antler longer than 3”.
So, button bucks are fair game and considered to be Antlerless.
Whack ‘em and stack ‘em on does.
