    OP said it will be a late summer shoot. Pups will be be grown and smarter. A LD rifle will be what you will be using the most and suppressed will help but still after the 1st shot most will be down the hole. Then its a waiting game.

    Maggie’s THE "NOM NOM NOM" THREAD

    @hangunr I have the top knife on my Hobart. They are very easy to sharpen. Piece of glass as the flat surface and wet sandpaper, just rub in a circular motion. Cant remember the grit but it seems to be in the 1500 - 3000 range. Actually sharper than they came from Hobart.

    Same here. Still look at lines just out of habit. Great tip about the old guy's experience in a previous post, they have the knowledge. Hands on, not from a book, I did a 30 and out but got bored so I did 10 more with the local town,
