    Hunting & Fishing Arnold Ranch in east Texas numerous Pics

    Re: Arnold Ranch in east Texas numerous Pics Nice! East Texas can produce some nice size deer (and racks) if adequate mass (and/or supplementation) is present and the herd is managed. We hunt next door in Cherokee Co.

    Hunting & Fishing *UPDATE* Major Fail @ 300yds

    Re: Major Fail @ 300yds I'd have to question how hard did you look for the deer? Reason I bring this up is because of experience -- I have seen too many hunters give up tracking deer because the "blood trail" played out. Too many inexperienced hunters expect to see an obvious blood trail and...

    Hunting & Fishing Graphic Photo, 210 Bergers

    Re: Graphic Photo, 210 Bergers If one shoots enough deer (or any other game animal), eventually you will find one that defies the odds with what appears to be a good shot. However, there are voids in the kill zone that will not result in a quick kill. Hard to tell about the other shots but...

    Hunting & Fishing Which to use hog hunting?

    Re: Which to use hog hunting? Feral hogs are not as tough as many would have you believe. They do have a thick shoulder to penetrate though, but if you place a shot behind the shoulder or to the head, either rifle/ammo choice should work fine. I have killed several with .22LR and many many...

    Hunting & Fishing Gut pile pictures...

    Re: Gut pile pictures... Although cats do vary in the color pattern, I think what you will find is that young adults tend to be more spotted than older animals. It seems as the animal gets older, the contrasting spots become less noticable.

    Rifle Scopes FAT wrench

    Re: FAT wrench Understood. However, I dont see how one could get repeatable tension on this tool anyway. The settings are just not that precise. Perhaps Ok for a ballpark setting, but a mighty big ballpark at that.

    Rifle Scopes FAT wrench

    Re: FAT wrench I guess I am the odd man out on this one. I tried one a couple of years ago when they first came out -- and hated it. The driver would fall out when turned upside down unless you physically held it in place. Also the settings are so course, you have no idea if you are even...

    Rifle Scopes opinions on Bushnell Elite 6500 2.5-16x42 scopes

    Re: opinions on Bushnell Elite 6500 2.5-16x42 scopes I have a 4200 tactical (6-24x50) and suppose it good for the money, but the glass is not as clear and sharp as what you would find on a higher quality scope. Have not yet done the box test, but the elevation turret seems to be true and...

    Re: texas lifetime hunting license Do it and don't look back if you possibly can. Wished many times I had done it. I was born and raised in TX and didn't bite the bullet before I moved out of state thinking I would be moving back soon. Well, its 20 years later and I have to buy an...

    Hunting & Fishing Rattlesnake..almost stepped on it!!!

    Re: Rattlesnake..almost stepped on it!!! Guys, what gives? I thought most of you hunters were one with nature (as opposed to someone that sees nature as frightening and foreign). There is no need in killing every snake you see. I dont have a problem with killing one every now and then to...

    Re: .223 powders I keep trying to make Varget work with 69g SMKs in a match barrel (1 in 8) because I have almost an entire 8lb can of it, but IMR4320 wins every time.

    When cleaning- bore brush or no?

    Re: When cleaning- bore brush or no? I dont think you will ever get a consensus on this. I tried for years to decipher the "proper" way to clean -- without luck. Even the pros dont agree on the best method -- not by a long shot! Apparently many different techniques work and many good...

    Gunsmithing inch pounds torque screwdrivers

    Re: inch pounds torque screwdrivers Guys, what am I missing here? Has the FAT wrench been improved? I bought one a couple of years ago and it was junk -- sent it back the next day. The bits would fall out, and there was no way to know precisely what setting you are on. The dial is simply...
