    Free to good home - rings and base

    I work on 10th Place and will buy coffee and two donuts of your choice for the base. LOL

    Thoughts On A Shotgun: Keep or Sell?

    Tough choice. I think he would understand. My son bought himself a Tristar a few years ago. Has been a great gun. I did have to replace the o ring and got it at ACE along with a few spares. I believe it is the same one used on the 1100.
  3. Stop stressing over it. Take what you have left and go hunt. Buy something close and if you run out resightin. A different lot won't hit the same spot anyway. Good Luck on your hunt BTW.

    Lead Core VS Solid Copper Ammo

    When Barnes came out with the X-Bullet I loaded some 120's in my Savage. I think it was 69 grains of RL19 or 22. Anyway they were about 3400 and I smacked a 3x3 high up in 29, maybe 220 yds. DRT Didn't even flop. Side canyon shot, he was about 30 yards lower facing away. Bullet hit about the 4th rib back and went through the backstrap and out the left side near the elbo. Lost a golfball size of meat. Boned it out, gutless method. I was alone and put him in my frame pack and hiked from 6400 down to the bottom of horseshoe at 4600w here we were camped. Should have rented a camcorder and saved it for Youtube. I would have been famous as the Godfather of the gutless method. LOL Taught lots of other newbies I mentored way back then when I had time to do that. Late December tags were close to 800 for 29 and some years you could get a second rifle tag. Mexican Gray Wolves were commonplace. Never needed to be reintroduced. I ofter wondered if that white Couse that G&F had a picture of in the lobby with a few other deer was the same one I chased for a few years. Talk of the town in Paradise, back in the day.

    Well done. Hope you have many more years of hunting them to come.

    Vegas Superbowl Weekend

    My brother turns 60 on Friday. He wants to stay at the Bellagio so he can see the fountains but after looking at prices he thinks he will stay at the MGM. I spoke to one of my sisters and assigned her the chore of getting prices for five rooms for the first and second there and then maybe MGM on Sunday since we will blow out on Monday. Little does he know but we will make his wish happen so any insight info on how to pull this together would be really appreciated.
  7. I thought about putting this in the Campfire but since it was more toward cooking I'll post it here. https://honest-food.net/on-trichinosis-in-wild-game/

    rifle for wife

    I only know a few people who like the old nostalgic rounds.
  10. My son is looking at one in the 20" bar, upgrading from his Poulan. I thought maybe a Stihl? Just hobby use and where to have serviced and where to buy, from a dealer?

    The mom and pop shops are the best. My mothers parents lived on Francis Lewis Blvd and I was born in Hollis. Dads family lived in Mt Vernon. I grew up further out on the Island. Slices were 25 cents when I was in HS.

    Vegas Superbowl Weekend

    Ya know. There are really two places where forengors come into the US. NYC and Arizona. I have seen the face of NYC change over the decades. It's what makes our country great and NYC with it's 800 dialects, welcoming attitude is what's it's all about. Rat Race? No. Just a littler faster pace. Born there but it's too pricey for me to live there.

    NY ain't what it used to be but it's working on what it once was and everyone should go there and spend a week. Lots to see, do and eat. But then I'm biased.

    We don't really gamble at all, shows, eating, drinking. This we at least get fat and drunk. Just a bunch of lookie Loos. I'd like to do a helio ride or a fishing charter.

    Too heavy, but thanks for the recomendation. His gun is pretty light and this would make it top heavy plus 9X is overkill. Should have scrolled down one option is 12oz. Since it is a 22 parallex needs to be 50 yards

    more rain

    Will be lots of wildflowers. Thinking of going up to 23 and do some squirrel hunting. Or should I go up to Happy Jack or Morman Lake area?

    Traveling through reservation while hunting

    I have traveled across the San Carlos a few times to hunt in Unit 27 and did have the tourist permit or whatever it is called but not any of the licenses mentioned. Travel was never overnight.
