Well sometimes you miss a few and encounter a LE who doesn't hunt. Just an FYI, it can get serious.

Always seems to be a good flight happening around Tangerine and the 10.

I've hunted it three times and will add that helio's flying low at night may keep you up a bit. My only "encounter" was fortunately a near miss. As my son and I were traversing a hillside the trail went under some trees (oaks?) and there I came upon a well hidden camp with a sleeping area, magazines, food stove etc. Glad it was unoccupied at the time.

Mechanical.

I used to have an H&S Precision stock on a 700 I used for Silhouette that had pillars and I would just snug the screws up with a T Handle. The zero would never change when I took the action out. You can borrow my Wheeler if you like when the stock comes in.

First pig I ever took was with a TC in 223.

Lame! No big deal. It's just a room clearing gun. Does anyone seriously believe it is worthwhile spending that kind of $$$ for the cool factor? To the OP, if you want a handgun for HAM hunts get a revolver or a TC that doesn't weigh 4#'s and actually has some resale value.

I guess I am paranoid about the dirt that will just sit there and cause rust and damage where it gets trapped. I had my old ford for close to 30 years and don't see myself buying another truck for another 30 so was just worried about longevity. Guess it is an old fart thing maybe........ I have the factory running boards on my F-250. Just bent one so I will have to look for another one or a pair.

Good to know. I have a Weatherby S2 and don't like the trigger.

I am kinda disappointed in myself that I didn't notice it when I bought the truck cause I think if I would have told them I wouldn't take it without them they would have put them in for me. Seems like it would be just normal factory just to help reduce rust and wear on the body!! If you can get a Ford PN go to Sunrise Ford in Southern California or Tousley (Auto Nation) Ford in MN for the best pricing.

Nope.

But is there spark? DId you try a squirt of starting fluid?

Call them up!

Food City always seems to get them.

Call Timney, they are in Phoenix.

Now I need to find/buy a decent inch pound torque wrench. It's amazing how many brands get mixed reviews. It seems the Wheeler Fat Wrench quality has improved the last couple years.Any suggestions? I bought a Wheeler last year and it is easy to use.

It is going to heat up so they will be back.

Yeah, Americas Team! Well at least they have the best Cheerleader uniforms.

Guess I'll have to look again but I thought I covered everything.

After gazing into my crystal ball I see it will be on February 5th. My prediction is I will rise early, get bait and head out into the Louisiana marsh in search of Redfish. In the afternoon we will do a crawfish boil and bar-b-que, drink a few cases of beer and have lots of people over. The game will get turned on and a few people will actually watch part of it. If halftime is good it may stay on if not it may still stay on with the usual boo's and hisses. I also predict two teams will play and one will win. If we are lucky we may actually have a camera man with a heart and pan to the cheerleaders more than just once or twice. Really, that's what football is really all about, CHEERLEADERS.

They need to work on a lightweight ADL model.

When will the new Verde 2.0 be available?

Walmart on McKellips and Greenfield has them in the sportingoods dept.

Got mine yesterday. Choices are, McCain Meluskey Van Steenwyk Ward

Lonesome Beaver Court.
