      450 Bushmaster FTF

      Brother dropped off his 450 AR before deer season for me to look at. Said shooting at target it works pretty good but every time he shoots a deer it has a failure to feed. I've never had an issue with an ar FTF but maybe a different weight buffer? I initially thought mag but he is using...

      Recent Prarie dog hunting

      Went to WY last year planning on going again. Also talked to Wildlife office at laramie and were on our way. BLM Maps can be bought at gas stations but are generally outdated(2-tracks move) and hard to read. GPS makes it a lot easier, but little pricier. The first local we met let us hunt...

      Ohio question

They emailed me back and were very accommodating but said they could not sell to an Indiana resident over the counter and I needed...

      Cattle.... Upcreek

      I May be bias as I have raised cattle my whole life but just see what he does before getting too worried. If he is using it for a cow/calf herd there won't be that many out there. If he is feeding them out on it I still would say they won't be packed out there. I grew up playing in the creek...

      whats going on? 44 mag

      Ok yeah heard not to underload h110. My manual calls 24gr max load. I've seen some online going up to 24.5 for a max. The rounds chamber smooth and when I say they hang up coming out I mean hard. As in you have to unshoulder the rifle and really pull on the lever. To me seems like the rifle...

      finally did it prairie doggin(i know) revisited

      Yeah sorry been busy. Me and one other friend went. We wanted to go to Wyoming, no real reason. Took ingoer JeremiahJohnson's spot and went in the Shirley basin area. But from the looks of things anywhere in eastern or central wy would have worked. Nice thing about Wyoming is no license...
