    Question about zeroing a rifle.

    Simplified: I believe the 200 yard zero comes from WWII training on the Garand (30.06). Zero the Garand to 100, click the range up to 200 and put a witness mark on the windage knob (Assuming it is already neutral) and the range knob so that you can return your zero quickly on the fly. The...

    Motivation for ML hunting restrictions

    I don't have time to absorb the arguments for or against. I appreciate all of the views but, when I hunt, I hunt to my plan. To each his own as long as it is legal and ethical.

    #9 vs M7

    I've used M7 for years when servicing honor guard Garands & my rifles.

    Motivation for ML hunting restrictions

    I believe the restrictions rational are correct: The point of hunting, with an ML, should be to replicate the joy of being able to hunt the way our ancestors hunted. Hunting with weapons which perform as well as a center-fire rifle are just to fill a freezer with meat. They are not used to...

    1016 yard black bear kill by Shawn Carlock

    Mosquito Help Needed

    Try to find some Avon 'Skin so Soft' It comes in an oil lotion form but I found the stick deoderant style better, I didn't like the oil on my hands. I fished in waters with biting flies and it kept them away and keep the stick style in my golf bag. Keeps the bugs away. Walmart may carry it.

    Armadillos

    Some are carriers of leprosy transmitted through contact with their blood. I believe there is open season on them in Texas.

    A few squirrels on thanksgiving.

    KSU imported the blacks from Canada years ago for a science project. Now they are all over N/E Ohio. I get a kick out of the South Carolina squirrels which resemble raccoons with their coloration. I haven't had squirrel stew since I was a child in Mississippi. As I recall, some really good...
