  1. I think Barney Frank would get the nod for most disgusting.
  2. If it hasn't changed since I took the class, you could repeatedly throw your handgun at the target and score a passing grade. Don't sweat it.
  3. Dang! That doesn't look bad at all. I expected one that looked like it had been drug home behind a truck.
  4. According to the laws of physics, all other things being equal, the lighter the rifle, the greater the recoil. Since you stated you aren't needing a long range rifle, I'd suggest a Marlin 1894 in 44 mag. Were you wanting a longer range gun, I'd suggest a model 7 Remington in 243 Rem or 260 Rem. I will tell you that recoil isn't as bad in most deer rifles as some would lead you to believe. Don't shoot too much from a bench and you'll be fine. In fact, I'll promise you that you'll never feel ANY recoil while shooting at large game.
  5. I can tolerate Debbie Wasserman Schultz a bit better than Andrea Mitchell. I want to strangle here every time her mouth opens. To answer your question, Al Gore tops my list of despised politicians.
  6. An old man I used to fish with would put several minnows on a hook, lay it on the ground, and stomp them until their intestines began to hang out. Sounds gross, but that old man sure caught a lot of catfish!
  7. They ain't biting!
  8. Remington Core Locts, Hornady Interlocs, Speer Hot Cores, and many others will make excellent deer bullets as well. No need to spend the extra $ on premium bullets for deer sized game.
  9. Nope! You won't beat that!
  10. For deer, they are top shelf.
  11. When I was a child, I saw a dog knock another boy down, grab him by the scruff of the neck, and commence hunching on his rear end. Every time the boy tried to get up, the dog would growl and tighten his grip on the boy's neck. After it was over, he swore to kill any of us who told the story. My story doesn'[t hold a candle to yours, but had a much happier ending.
  12. I have a Summit Goliath, and it is an A+ treestand in all catergories. Easy to use, sturdy, lightweight, and comfortable. I wouldn't change a thing about it.
  13. Nice pic of a redtail hawk. He doesn't look quite mature to me either. Mature retails have been known to carry off adult chickens.
  14. Something wrong with a 38?
  15. It won't be removed unless it washes out in a flood. Wouldn't hurt anything if it flooded the entire hollow. We enjoy watching them. I wouldn't want to shoot them.
  16. That's pretty much what I did. I suppose the owner must have been there and heard the commotion, because it has been chained since then. Maybe it'll continue to be. There are small children who live across the road from it.
  17. Bigger pants or lose the gut. I've done neither, so there's an LCP in my front pocket.
  18. I believe 5 grain of Bullseye and 230 fmj is pretty much the standard load to match military ball ammo performance.
  19. We went to check on a treestand my youngest son and I plan to hunt from next Saturday, and saw this dam constructed near it. There have been beavers in the creek for several years now, but this is the first dam I've seen them complete before it got washed away by storm water. I guess we'll be watching beavers instead of deer next weekend. You can't tell from the angle of the picture, but the water level above the dam is 3-4 feet higher than below.
  20. This is a large, black mixed breed dog. It is somewhat larger than my full grown male Lab.
  21. Strawberry pie and Budweiser.......the Harry Carry special.
  22. Trip the GFCI and then turn it back on. If that doesn't work, turn off and back on the breaker. If that don't work, you may have a faulty outlet.
  23. The entire state? Most people here where I live let their dogs wander freely. I don't mind, except for this one moron who has the vicious dog.
  24. I'd buy a Model 70 Ranger in 30-06. You may just find one in the classifieds here.
  25. I'd suggest tru-oil just for it's simplicity. Rub it on with your finger. Let dry. Repeat. Repeat. Repeat. Etc. When you get enough on it to suit you, you can rub it with 0000 steel wool, or pumice dust to get a nice, professional looking finish.
