Well looking at getting the GF a little savage mark ii ( their in sale for $140 so thing right now so might as well)so she can stop stealing mine? looking at maybe getting a Bushnell rimfire scope to try on it since it's supposed to have good tracking turrets and it's under $200 but no sure yet. Most of my rimfires wear some cheap $50 3-9 but figured I get her something nice so she can't have an excuse when I put shoot her ?? Anyway was shopping around and got curious just curious what eveyones favorite rimfire glass ?

Played around with it's the other day.Had a bunch of cast .225 bullets still lying around and I'm not doing any 100yd testing with them for a while. Saw some fox squirrels running around the yard and figured it would be fun to try and make a low velocity deal I could shoot out my .223 H&R Ultra varmint at short range and not have to worry about crazy over penetration and the like. Basically a .22lr replacement if I ever run out again or need something with a little bit more punch. Honestly it would probably make more sense to actually play with that .22hl hornet I bought last year and have

Racoons fur in general has been at a all time low fro the last few years honestly. South fur is always pretty bad on price though . We had good color just not the full ess of north fur or the sheen of western. Went to the fur sale for my state this year and my buddy managed to get $6 a pice for the 40somthing he brought. But hats a really really high price for us. Most of the coon where for $1-$3 tops. He had some of th best put up and fur handling of anyone there so that had something to do with it. A few years ago alot of my friends in the Midwest and up north where averaging $20-25 a pop a

Never will I understand some dogs. Been 100 degrees ( 37 f) with 100% humidity here every day for the last two months. Figured I'd be nice and let all the dogs in the house and let them cool off during the heat of the day and soak up the A/C while I sleep and let them out when I leave for work at night. Well two of them will come in look around then start scraping at the door to be let out within ten minutes. Figured my collie mix would really appreciate it since she's covered in fur but nope. Ten minutes and her and the other outside dog are out the door. My chawinnie and fiest are both hous

Anyone elese happen to do stuff on the side as a little business? Personally I weld Various things like these rod holders , snare supports,trapping drags ,various gardening things ect.and sell them over Facebook and the like. More money in building stuff like bull gates and the like but those are kinda in frequent. Also pick up and resale brass or shit shell hulls from the local range to other reloaders in various forums. Can make some decent pocket money when the richer folks come around and blow 100rd of norma or Lapua and just leave the brass in the dirt ? got two five gal

Was cleaning the gun room and found this just now. Easy little mod for you guys wanting some spikes on your bipod feet for whatever reason. Just order some archery field points ( think I paid like $5 for a 10 pack) pop the roll pin out that holds the rubber foot on to the bipod leg and drill a small hole in it. Shove the screw in part of your field tip in the hole ( you make need to trim it down a little ) and put some five minute epoxy in and around the tip. Once dried just re attach to you bipod legs with the roll pin. Way cheaper then the custom made ones and pretty effective if you like th

These guys helped me some. You will get a poi t if impact shift however from shooting off of a hard surface especially if your mainly used to shooting off of a soft surface where you can dig your bipods feet in. Main thing that haled me was to pop my bipods leg out longer and give it more of a medium load instead of a really hard one.

I collect and convert old outdoor videos as a hobby. Make clips sometimes and post them so they don't die completely. Anyhow here's a clip from a coyote calling video I have. Figured some of y'all would enjoy it.

Lovely piece as always SD ! Never thought I'd see a leaver gun over there. What the make and model? Caliber? They have a Henry for sale at Walmart right now for $360 I think and I've been looking hard at it

Mmmm so decided to get a little more serious with my reloading. Looked around and everyone who was shooting these bug hole groups and doing all this super serious reloading work all had these nice bench rest style front rests and rear bags. I'd always just bumbled along with with a bipod and sand sock or a old shooting bag I found in the trash and taped along with a sand sock. So I thought "Hay ! This fancy stuff is going to make life a breeze ! It's going to practically cheating". So dropped $150 on a "cheap" Caldwell Rock BR front rest and a freind on another site was kind enough to send me

Wolfdog91 posted a topic in Snaring, Trapping & Pest Control
Something I though some of you more adventurous type would find interesting. These arnt for rabbits btw I think y'all have that figured out lol but maybe you fix guys would enjoy this. Actually extremely easy to make. Took me less then a minute and no welding . And according the the comments there some using this in the UK and their liking it so.... -
Hay do y'all know if fourteen acres ships state side ? Been chatting with that Glenn Waters fella ( wonderful guy to talk to was super surprised how knowledgeable he was of snaring Info from over here , guy knows stuff about our snaring history 80% of guys over here have no clue about. Real joy to talk to) and I kinda wanna buy his snaring books to add to my video and book collection. Don't think I have anything from the UK yet. Fourteen acres seems to be the only place I can find them, y'all happen to know if they ship state side ?

I think I get what your say ?? and the Tigger is basically a set of conibear wires on a bar that supports a rod that the doors hook to. Animal tries to push though the wires like a conibear with pushes the bar away and lest the doors drop. -

Wolfdog91 replied to Wolfdog91's topic in Snaring, Trapping & Pest Control
Yep it was found from the side. These traps are powered and wider on one side then the other so you can set them upside down on there sides and right side up and they all fire the same . Deal is these aren't swing in doors. Those are a plain to build ,just don't the springs is annoying as hell. These are swing out colony doors. Here one with out the trigger and springs The trade off with these though is you Daniel has to be past the door or they get slapped out of the trap. Most of these type trap actually have to be longer in since compared to someone like Comstock slap in doors -
Happens to all my conis from 110 to 330's all the time. Just take my trapping hammer and give it a little tap it knock it off the bend. Easy peasy
