I've been using this combination for several years for pest control on coons and ground hogs. Works great. MV is around 1900 fps. Hits hard enough to kill instantly, but not so over powering that I need to worry too much about what's on the other side. About as loud as a 22 mag rimfire, or a...
Just wanted to give a quick shout out to the cheap Ozark Trail fillet knives from wally world. I believe they are made by Mora. As a fillet knife, they suck because they are too stiff. However, I love using them to skin and bone out a deer. I've used Rapala fillet knives to do this for...
I recently had the chance to go on my first Prairie Dog hunt. This has been on my bucket list for a LONG LONG time. We had a LOT of fun. We hunted with Wyoming Edge Outfitters located about an hour north of Devils Tower. They were fantastic! Great food, beautiful scenery, comfortable clean...
Looking for a holographic sight for my dad. He wants one for his 870 to use for bird hunting. He just turned 72, and he's looking for something to help him get on the bird a little faster. I was thinking about a holosun 507, but I'm worried that weeds and debris could cause problems in the...
My primary heat source is currently an add-on wood furnace that was built circa 1980. The unit feeds hot air into my central air system. It does fine, but it is getting to the point where it needs to be rebuilt or replaced. I'm considering moving to an outdoor wood boiler, and it seems like...
I used to get tired of passing on a nice doe during early archery season, or having to rush into processing the meat during a warm spell so I started looking into ways to cool the meat when the temps are well above 40 deg. I found several options with most of them being very expensive. I ended...
Can someone recommend a decent seating die for the 300 blackout?
I'm currently loading 300 blackout with a set of Hornady dies that I got with the upper. I'm loading 125 gr flat base bullets, and it's a pain in the rear. The hornady seating die doesn't stick down far enough to come out...
Last summer I decided that I wanted to add another AR to the family, but this time I wanted something I could hunt with, AND something I could stretch out for plinking at some distance. I settled on the 6.5 Grendel. After seeing the prices on the finished uppers from some of the more well...
Sharing my long range target camera set up that I built last summer. I went through a couple of different hardware configurations trying to get the resolution that I wanted, which increased my cost. I am describing each component and why I'm using it instead of something else. Hope this helps...
Looking for recommendations on vacuum sealers. I have a couple of old food savers that have worked well for years. They have started having problems and I can't get parts for them any more, so I replaced them with a newer model that I absolutely hate. The old units would literally vacuum...
Can anyone point me to the JP part number for a lighter disconnect spring for my 2 stage RR AR trigger? Is it the one that comes in their regular AR trigger spring kit?
Please don't recommend that I send the trigger back to RR. That's not what I'm asking. At this point in time I can't...
I'm looking for a 9mm for my wife. I have done a lot of shooting and training over the years, but with family obligations I'm not able to make it out to the range as much any more. She got her lifetime permit last year, and is interested in getting something for carry.
Single stack 9mm seem...
Just curious what you guys think. Who makes the most accurate 17 hmr? I'm thinking about gettting one to kill ground hogs and coons in the back yard. My 10/22 just doesn't quite hit hard enough, and I don't care to wake the neighbors with my AR, so the 17 seems about right. I'm thinking...
