I can't get the link to work for some reason but the article is at the New England Journal of Medicine and is titled "Probably Zoonotic Leprosy in the Southern United States".

Personally, I leave them alone. Studies show they can transmit leprosy to humans. MMS: Error I figure, why risk it.

My family and I are in as well. I have set ups in West Nashville and Hickman County. I'm glad to help with organizing in those areas.

No such thing as an "accidental discharge". Only negligent discharges. The round didn't load itself.

That sucks. There isn't a lot out there. We've got one operator position open... if you have sales / call center / customer service experience. PM me if you are interested and I'll point you in the right direction. Good luck.

Awesome. Thanks.

I love that they put a rail on this thing: http://mad-duck-training.blogspot.com/2011/07/all-in-one.html

I recently picked up one of the rugers... awesome gun.

Love that store. Small and not a huge selection, but you can't beat Tom and his staff.... great folks.

I handled one at SHOT show... very cool concept. I don't think they are on the market yet.

Amen. Woodford is hands down the best bourbon on the market.

They have been bad this year... no gobbling but the ticks are everywhere. I went ahead and did another permitherin treatment on my hunting clothes... pretty much stopped the ticks.... didn't help a bit w/ the thunder chickens tho.

Howdy!

Nice. I use a .45/70 on hogs and it is absolutely devastating.

I have one that I carry every day. I'm quite fond of it. Go ahead and buy it... if you don't want to keep it, let me know and I'll take it off your hands.

I'm leaning towards a hat plate of some variety as well. Similar to this: http://www.civilwarbuttons.com/r&m0907112.JPG

I've never worn them, but I've heard great things about Bellevilles. A bunch of soldiers I know wore them in Iraq and swear by them.

Amazon.com: Sawyer SP657 Permethrin Premium Insect Clothing Repellent, 24-Ounce Spray: Patio, Lawn & Garden I treat all of my hunting clothes with this stuff and mostly never get ticks on me. Mostly.

Treat your clothes with permitherin. It works wonders.

Fantastic!

I prefer fur or feathers, but I do enjoy deep sea fishing. Nothing tastes as good as fresh grouper grilled with a light dill sauce.

Anyone have experience with mercury recoil reducers? Graco BreaKO Mercury Recoil Reducer Standard 7/8" x 4" 14 oz - MidwayUSA

Heh. Unfortunately, cape buffalo have exactly zero respect for that cartridge. I am more concerned w/ taming full power loads in the field... I want to be able to put several rounds on the aforementioned buff without dislocating my shoulder.

I need some help / suggestions for taming the recoil on my Sako .375 H&H. It's a fantastic gun, but my shoulder gives a little twinge every time I think about shooting it. I've got to tame the beast! Any suggestions? Recoil pads, muzzle brakes, mechanical recoil reduction? What's worked for you?

I'll pitch in.
