You have to question why someone would give you a $1300 crossbow for answering a riddle on FB.

That is a huge doe and really nice buck! Congrats! I can see how that drop time could gash you open. Wow.

Honest question, why would you do that? Seems like you're chaining your future family generations to your property that they might not even want. What if they don't want to live there? Should they...

Nice pick up! Some say that iron-sighted 94s don't shoot. Don't believe it. Sounds like you got a good one. Congrats!
This is the problem. With all due respect, this dude left his wife and son with 130 guns that they now have the hassle of disposing of them. Valuing them, pricing them, marketing them somewhere,...

So .3585" is smaller than .356" and .357"?
OK.

I'm confused. First you were talking .30-06 in a 700 and 7600, then mentioned .30-30, then back to .30-06, and finally that you won't use them in the 336, which presumably is a .30-30. Maybe my brain...
I happen to use the Underwood load in a 6.5" Blackhawk that shoots it better than just about any other factory load. While the pressures might seem high, remember many of these mid-size guns you're...

Penn 716, green and silver.
My dad won it in a casting competition in the 70s. Put it on a 5' fiberglass rod, 2-piece with a metal ferrule. The rod is long gone, but the reel is still cranking...

Toss up between the 45 acp, 38 special, and 357. Hard to pick one over the others.
Purchased a used stainless 6.5" NM 357 Blackhawk, from a co-worker's father for $200 in 1992. The sale included 4 boxes of Remington factory ammo. As that was a huge sum of money for me at the time,...
I've owned 2 FAs. A 6" 83 Premier in 44 mag and a 7.5" 97 in 41 mag. Owned-past tense. Sold both of them years ago. They were both well built, tight, and very accurate. Other than the fact that the...

I kinda miss 44man. He was highly opinionated, confrontational, a bit rough around the edges, and a bit of a richard head at times. But his knowledge and experience kept me listening, in spite of...

I agree most of this, except for the bolded. If Ruger were to non-stop crank out 357 1894s for a year, they'd sell every one easily. JMO

Outdoor Unlimited has 99+ 1000ct. in stock of nearly every primer. 10cpr+
It's a good sign that primers are pretty much everywhere now, prices should fall in time.

Around here, we don't normally get much snow. So when it snows, you want to be out there. If it's a heavy snow, they'll remember any corn piles or feeders and go right to them. Snowfall is a super...

After the season you've had, yeah you shoulda shot one of the does that came by. As always with hunting, you gotta be at the right place at the right time. Unfortunately, sometimes your property may...

Well that's depressing. Can't say you're wrong though.

Yep, nose profile is irrelevant in a cylinder. You can shoot full-on wadcutters if you choose. Can shoot +p and 45 Super without issues. Cowboy Special brass with the 454424, yep.
