Hello, Its been a while since I've done any trapping so I'm not very knowledgeable about the different trap designations ie. number, size what not. So I can't give advice along those lines except double coil spring traps with an open diameter of about 5" worked pretty well. As far as how to...

Hello, I have several of their pocket sized lights and carry one daily. There has been a few issues such as the bezel coming unscrewed on one, the ring which screws in and holds the switch came loose and one of the lights will just stop working but at some undetermined time will work again. I...

Re: Taped muzzle Hello, I always tape my muzzle when out in the field. As stated above it keeps debris out and there is no problem shooting through it. I agree that condensation can be a problem if the tape is left in place long term. Rust is my main concern as it would take a serious amount...

Re: Best case lube? Hello, Kiwi Mink Oil. Used just like Imperial Sizing Die Wax. Works great and a little goes a long way. If you ever need more you can get it most anywhere. Sim

Re: Redding Graphite Neck Lube Hello, I use small ball bearings, smaller than a BB in a container with powdered graphite. This lubes the necks well and works just fine. There has never been any problem with the graphite embedding in the brass, barrel or anything else. In the past the...

Re: 16 yr old son w shin splints- help!! Hello, When I was in training (AIT after basic), a lot of us were going to Airborne School afterwards. The drill sergeants made us run in the fast group which typically ran ~4 miles at a good clip. I developed shin splints so bad that I could hardly...

Re: It doesn't get any more redneck Hello Good job on all your Redneck mods. I have a Savage .243 Win. that I made a stock for out of birch plywood and put a varmint weight 26" barrel on. It would be nice to cut that barrel down to 22" or so. I've thought of using a hack saw but haven't got...

Re: De-burring outside of case necks I second the above advice to use steel wool. 0000 steel wool works very well and is what I use. I no longer use an outside deburrng tool. To speed things up a bit if you'd like, you can take a nut driver and stuff it with the steel wool and chuck it into...

Re: I want to take a hit out on fleas Hello, Get rid of any carpet if that is an option. Buy some permethrin from Tractor Supply and mix according to the label. Isolate the cats from the areas you spray until spray is thoroughly dry. Permethrin is toxic to cats. It won't bother them once its...

Re: 178 A-max load help. .308 I load the 178's over 42gr of Re15 in Lapua cases and Fed 210M primers. Above 42gr of Re15 and I started to see pressure signs on chronograph. Chronographs at an Avg. 2675 fps. This load in my rifle is still supersonic at 1k yds and is also very accurate. Sim

Re: CARLOS HATHCOCK QUESTION M2 Browning with a scope mounted on it. From a tripod.

Re: "Truing" your software hello, I shot my rifle at each hundred yd mark from 100yd to 1000yds. At each range I noted impact of 5 shot groups and correction needed. Using average MV (chronographed) and Litz's data for BC in JBM's program, the computed data was different from what the...

Re: ballistic tips, after the shot... Hello, I've used ballistic tips to kill quite a few deer over the years. Generally speaking fragmentation was not an issue. Most mushroomed uniformly and served their purpose. When ballistic tips first came out there were some legitimate concerns...

Re: 911 Operator Gives Bad Advice Hello, The kids did exactly what they should have done. Its a shame the dispatcher gave the boy instructions which could have caused the situation to end very badly for him and his sister. I'm glad to hear that the boy will not be charged with a crime. His...

Re: Case Lube Procedure In response to Rob's question, I don't know a specific time and haven't ran a test of one technique vs. another. I think it takes less time and is less messy than using any of the spray lubes. I have used Hornady One Shot and Dillon's spray lube with lanolin. The...

Re: Case Lube Procedure I use and like kiwi mink oil. Its easy to find, cheap and works as well as anything I've tried and I have tried most of what has been mentioned above. Just a little touch with a couple fingers and spin the case between thumb and fingers. A very light film on case...

Re: How do YOU debur case necks? I've had the same problem in the past. Your trimmer is probably dull causing the excessive burr. I no longer use the outside deburring tool and use only OOOO steel wool. A couple of twists and the case mouth is perfect. I also use a brass bore brush inside...

Re: leading a running whitetail... Hello, I'm from eastern NC and not so many years ago pretty much the only way we hunted deer was with dogs. This meant of course that most all shots were at running deer. There are different "degrees" of running as far as deer are concerned; a deer bounding...

Re: Looking for a Good Camp Cot Hello, Not sure what kind of camping you're planning on but since my military days of sleeping on the ground often under the stars I have come to really appreciate a hammock. With a hammock and tarp you can dx the tent and sleep a lot more comfortably. You...
