    Hunting & Fishing Any salt water fisherman out there

    Re: Any salt water fisherman out there I'm a saltwater fisherman! I run a 32' Blackfin Sportfisher down in the Mexican Caribbean. We catch lots of sailfish, blue and white marlin, wahoo, mahi, the whole gamut! Billfish are catch and release for the most part. Bottom fishing is probably a bit...

    Hunting & Fishing one and only one rifle for any north american game

    Re: one and only one rifle for any north american game This question is as old as blackpowder but still fun. 30.06 for lower 48. Chose it over 7 mag because of cartridge choices and availability. .375 if Alaska will be regular part of usage (plus now you are gunned for Africa). But really...

    Hunting & Fishing Hogs

    Re: Hogs Excellent post! I agree with just about everything you say. I would also add that brining can be very worthwhile. I've never found it necessary to soak that long in vinegar but it certainly does help with gaminess. LOL! Also, I have to admit that I find the younger versions of just...

    Hunting & Fishing Deer hunting with suppressors

    Re: Deer hunting with suppressors I am from Texas as well. It is nice to see them coming around. I got out of the Marines after two combat tours in Viet Nam. I had joined up at age 17. I got out at 21 with a diagnosed high frequency hearing loss. Back in those days we didn't pay much...

    Jewell vs Timney

    Re: Jewell vs Timney In my experience they are both excellent triggers. If I was trying to eeeeeek out the lightest weight and wanted consistency I'd use a Jewel. For hunting or any other practical app I would probably just go with a Timney.

    custom action over bluprinted remington 700?

    Re: custom action over bluprinted remington 700? I am nuts for pre-64 and mauser actions. I am a strong believer in CRF and big claw extractors. I've been around the Win vs Rem action debate many times. First time I ever actually heard someone prefer a Rem extractor. The 700 adherents I know...

    Hunting & Fishing My first bobcat :)

    Re: My first bobcat :) Man, that is one big cat! Congratulations. This will probably freak out a lot of people but bobcats are actually excellent eating. They are white meat and are actually kinda sweet. Once you eat one you'll never look at a house cat the same way !! (joking). Mountain...

    Hunting & Fishing Deer hunting with suppressors

    Re: Deer hunting with suppressors If you've ever been on the receiving end of high velocity rounds you know just how loud they are. I was once involved in population control of captive herds. Using a suppressed weapon was really the way to go. It minimized the trauma to the herd when culling...

    Hunting & Fishing Northern Plains Whitetail Disease

    Re: Northern Plains Whitetail Disease I used to be a deer farmer and unfortunately this is something I know about. EHD and Blue Tongue are actually two different diseases although the symptoms are the same. EHD and Blue Tongue are both common in the south. Most southern animals have a built...

    Hunting & Fishing They are never too young to teach!

    I wanted to share this with you guys. I figured you'd appreciate it. This is my 8 year old granddaughter. She shot her first hog with a Mini 14 Ranch Model. The gun fit her perfectly and of course there is minimal recoil. One shot, one kill. Oh yeah! Richard P.S. My user name gets confused...

    Hunting & Fishing great way to start off the new year

    Re: great way to start off the new year I had to sell my ranch a few years back and I gotta say that's one of the things I miss most! Just being able to go from wild boar to cook fire in an hour! Those pesky critters are starting to get out of hand. Eat more pork ! Cheers, Richard
