      POLITICAL pictures - Funny (unlikely), Sad (more likely) Infuriating (most likely)

      When I worked at Wally World in college, we'd start getting Halloween stuff before back to school sales ended and Christmas decorations started trickling in before mid-September. They would store the Christmas stuff in locked semi trailers parked behind the store until early November. Once the...

      Reviving a Wildcat: 6x61mm Brogne

      Current cartridge design seems to mostly be removing the largely un-needed belts from old belted magnums and shortening them a bit too allow for extremely long bullets. I'm going to go with really, really explosive. I've seen what a 55 grain BT from .243 Win will do to a squirrel, I'm...

      2024 Deer Season

      Hopefully, the bugs are not as bad by then! A few seasons back It was 78 on November 10th and I was stupidly in a stand because it was November. I started to wonder if I was going to die from blood loss to all of the mosquitoes or have a heat stroke first. I hope we get a killing freeze early...

      2024 Deer Season

      Unless we get some big cold fronts earlier in October I rarely hunt until the weekend before Halloween. I often don't see much mature buck activity on the property I hunt until then anyway.

      Trump 2024 — The second term

      ABC is probably just worried he will go after the cast of The View next by mistake.

      Trump 2024 — The second term

      Probably. I'm sure it was completely above board when Kamala tried to pay off Cornel West and Jill Stein to drop out of the race though.

      Brand Loyalty, Why Or Why Not?

      My wife loves their prime rib but I've never been a fan of Roadhouse steaks. When I want a steak, I go to Longhorn at a minimum. Most of the time I prefer to cook my own and save $20.

      Brand Loyalty, Why Or Why Not?

      Since this is INGO and it is mandatory that every discussion turns to food eventually, I'll say that they Texas Roadhouse is almost dead to me after changing their chicken. Their "chicken critters" used to be hand breaded and well seasoned. Texas Roadhouse was about the only place I'd order...

      Novelty guns what you got!!??

      I have a reproduction Winchester 1895 in .405 Winchester that due to aging eyes and hard to come by ammo has been relegated to novelty status. Then on the other end of the spectrum, there's the Savage 340 in .25-20. I've been tempted to sell it a few times but then I shoot it and can't stop...

      First Precision Rifle

      It is kind of ironic that you mention not taking unethical shots and then casually talk about shooting elk at 500 or 600 yards. One is not required to shoot elk at 500-600 yards, one could, as an alternative, use hunting skills to get closer. Maybe it's just me but I don't take any hunting...

      Why the hate for Cyclists?

      If you slow down to 5 in front of them halfway up a steep hill then surely they would be screaming in praise for your aid in improving their workout.

      Brand Loyalty, Why Or Why Not?

      I'm more brand loyal on vehicles than anything else since it is such a large investment and I tend to keep my vehicles for 10 plus years and 200K+ miles. Even then it is more by process of elimination for the brands I won't buy than loyalty for the ones I will. I do my research on models and...

      First Precision Rifle

      The controlled round feed thing is mostly myth with a little bit of truth at least with modern rifles but it is hard to beat the smoothness of a Model 70, especially a well used one. They almost cycle themselves or seem to at least.

      First Precision Rifle

      No worries, I'm not at all offended. Fair enough, I could see where you might think that and to some extent I am focusing on performance, just not the way you think. I couldn't possibly care less about how small a group a rifle shoots from the bench or the cost of the rifle. Group size is great...

      First Precision Rifle

      This line of thinking is exactly what I have a major problem with and why I have issues with the Ruger American. There should be nothing "casual" about taking an animal's life. The very least a hunter can do is to invest a little effort into not having bottom of the barrel equipment, whether...

      First Precision Rifle

      Anyone that can't find a Tikka for under $750 isn't looking very hard. Considering a Tikka does everything a bolt action rifle is supposed to do at least sufficiently and most things very well while the American barely cycles under good conditions, has a flimsy stock but shoots well, I'd say...

      First Precision Rifle

      I don't and can't fault the guy for his choice. It is unreasonable in the extreme to expect someone with little rifle experience to see through the marketing and hype to make a well informed decision. Indeed, many people with the experience to know better will readily fall for the same marketing...

      2024 Deer Season

      I still have another month yet before I can get trail cams out on my primary hunting property and it'll probably be mid to late October before I get photos of any of the better bucks that should be around this year but I'm still chomping at the bit to get started. If the area can avoid an EHD...

      Trump 2024 — The second term

      It only lacks in encouragement if you don't understand the context. At this point in the 2016 and 2020 races Trump was consistently polling behind his opponent by 4-6% or more in almost every poll. Kamala is not doing nearly as well currently as Clinton in '16 or Biden in '20 despite all the...
