You may have a bore sighter that's different than what I've used in the past, but I definitely wouldn't depend on it to tell me if my scope was mounted true. You really need a way to secure the rifle and a couple of bubble levels to get it spot-on.

Right on man. I'll have to have a look. Thank you.

.........:cool:

I'm glad to see this thread as well. Of course here on a forum where "extreme" is the norm, it's going to raise some controversy. To me though, it all boils down to BUDGET. We can only buy what we can afford. It's nice to know that some folks can easily exclude the entire bottom end and...

I have never called a lion. I know that your original post asked what people have USED to call lions. But seeing as how you hadn't had any responses at that time, I thought a little bump might help keep it noticeable for those that might have the experience you seek.

Yeah sorry...the sarcasm temptation was unbearable...lol. On a serious note, I'd think something like a wounded calf/fawn call would be a great option.

In my personal opinion, price gouging has become "normal retail practice", sadly. 1900 is WAY HIGH in my mind. I MIGHT pay 1900 if it rearranged itself like a Transformer and cleaned itself after every range session.

Get a buddy that is really gullible. Pour some blood from the butcher shop on him and tell him to act hurt.:D:D

That's a good point that I totally forgot about bigngreeen----how much TOTAL he can expect. I was talking about a single cutting------oops :). Thanks for the correction.

My story isn't nearly as glamorous as the rest of yours, but here it is...... I was about 14 yrs old and my cousin was over at my house. As young boys do when they're bored, we decided to go try to shoot something. I grabbed my bow, and out the door we went. It was summertime, so we headed out...

Did you make a typo on your original post? It reads "2" acres. The only reason I ask is because your neighbor couldn't possibly be thinking that you can get that many bales from just 2 acres. On a GOOD day, you might get......50-80 bales and I'd actually doubt that you could get that much...

This is totally a matter of you knowing your son, so I can't blatantly recommend something. Just please don't start him with too much gun. If he develops a bad flinch now, it will really hurt his learning curve as a shooter. I say this, because I shot my first deer at the age of 10 with my...

I'd have to suggest something that you probably already know.... Go to your nearest county extension center and show them a quick sketch of your field layout. Ask them how many soil samples you should take and where you should take them from according to your planned crop. Take the samples...

Ohhh stupid badge stories huh? I have my share of those! First one that comes to mind: I was taking the heads off an old Chevy C-10 that I had once so that I could put a new cam in it, and head gaskets on it. It was winter then too. No garage, so I'm out in the cold. Well all seemed to be...

Where I am, I don't have as many hogs to hunt as some other guys on here, so I can't speak from a great deal of experience.....but: if you have decent visibility, I'd spot and stalk, if I were you. Where I am, it's almost all heavily forested with the occasional clearing or powerline right of...
