We’ve moved on for the most part. Rezeroed guns for the new rounds on some and have large supplies of the new ones for the one still using them that actually shot the Normas dead on same as the BTSP didn’t have to touch it so just moving forward with them all. No reason to prolong the inevitable at...

I have searched high and low and have not found any at least not in the federal cartridge. Maybe some new old stock just bullets for reloading but as far as the cartridge have found zero. Between us Shot them in .243, .270, 30/06 and 7mm mag all had to switch. 243 wnd 270 they went to the regular...

I cannot. I’ve never had that issue at all. Only time I’ve seen nonexits were on hard quartering to shots that went in base of neck and was logged in opposite hind quarter. All broadside shots through shoulder or behind it all exited and left massive spraying trails as far as I recall. I’m sure ...

Federal Premium 150 gr Vital Shok Sierra Gameking BTSP (sight in at 100 yards and expect 3.3" drop at 200 yards) This is what I have shot for over 20 years and LOVE them……however…..they were recently discontinued as I believe Sierra stopped making that bullet so the cartridge went too. I am down...

6+ generations of back bay trash here. Yea it’s all real. Possibly some stories a bit embellished but def at least majority true. Old family members knew him well and as said from what they all said he was as nice a guy as they come just wanted to be left alone. ...

They are great bows but as said have a bit of a different “feel” to em vs other recurves. Also as said your question sounds like maybe you don’t have much recurve experience. If that is the case I suggest going with a good cheaper bow but not necessarily cheap bow. I am currently shooting a Bear ...

Yes baby moccasin ...

Which one are you looking at? I have a 2004 2100rg and it is a great boat but it is not made anymore. Of course it’s a def a no frills fishing boat but it is perfect for what we do. I’ve had her 75 miles offshore and in 1.5’ of water in the marsh. 9’ beam and rides fantastic I’ll put her ride up...

Teachers are very high on the safe list. Covid proved that. All the “virtual/distance” learning etc failed overwhelmingly. Just showed 5-18 year olds don’t have the commitment/drive/discipline etc to do it without an adult sitting next to them making it happen. While the information can certainl...

I’ve had a bunch of them over the years and now I only use Catahoulas. My current one is hands down the best track dog I’ve ever seen. Great with kids long as you keep the energy under control don’t let them think it’s ok to jump etc. also they will be protective of the house and family. All arou...

Just got back into it the last few months. Used to shoot traditional a lot in the 80s and 90s but had been compound only for the last 25 years or so. My son started shooting with the NAS team and though they shoot compound it is all instinctive shooting so I dusted off the old Bear Kodiak hunter a...

It would only sound off for like 30 seconds each time motor was cranked then the alarm would stop and just the light would stay on. Was not worried about it not getting oil bc as I said I had extra oil board and just poured it in the tank so worst case it was getting double oil which doesn’t hurt t...

Still running my 1998 old 225 ocean pro. 3500 hours and counting. I did away with the oil pump though I premix in the tank. Had my “no oil” alarm go off while offshore. Had extra in the boat so poured it in the tank and marked the oil tank level with marker. Fished all day and when we got in th...

Mine did that too. One 15 min phone call and it was less than it was before with same coverage. They just hope you are too lazy to call. ...

I’m in a similar spot as far as thinking of retiring at 50. 42 now and will have my 25 years in with the state at 50. At that point will have a 50% pension on a 4 year average of about 82k so will get roughly 41k a year in pension a year plus the COLA check which starts at 3% and compounds 3% per ...

Been hunting MS public land all over MS for almost 40 years. Have killed a lot of good bucks but that comes with a lot of miles on the boots and hours in the stand. Don’t expect to come here for a long weekend and have a legit chance at killing a good buck. They are around but they are highly edu...

First major event I remember is the Challenger explosion which we were watching live at school in kindergarten in 86. Next would be baby Jessica in 87. To young to really understand either back then but def remember all the emotion the adults were showing for both....

Need it bad. Been on tractor planting dove fields all day and it’s a damn dust bowl. Had to till it all 3 times on ground that gets tilled every year. Seed in though just waiting on the rain now figured these next couple days was best shot for rain for the next couple weeks based on current fore...

I have had a couple 10/22 for many many years. Always wanted a Henry. While back came across just the default h001 Henry lever brand new still in the plastic in the box for $5. Yes 5 American dollars. Of course bought it. If I am going squirrel hunting I grab the 10/22 but for anything else I a...

I have this one. My medic. [link=(https://mymedic.com/products/boat-medic-waterproof-first-aid-kit)]My medic boat first aid kit [/link]Water proof Box etc. comes with everything you can legitimately treat on the water. Little pricey but found some on sale a while back for like $75 and ordered 3...
