    Handloads.

    Triple b metals owned by Brent merryman. Has the best prices, around 35$ a pound with a discount of you buy 10lbs or more if I remember correctly. Hal over at super-18 shot.com has a ok price per pound not the cheapest but he has the most extensive, most detailed load data library for just...

    Handloads.

    I haven't used any bismuth myself but have seen friends and family use factory bismuth shells and they seemed to give a bit of advantage over steel shot. I still load my own lead shells for tree rats, rabbits, use to load my own lead turkey shells s well. But the last few years I started...

    Handloads.

    Dang I would have thought with all the folks on here who like to do things their way and build things to fit their needs, that some of y'all would be handloading your own waterfowl loads. Oh well guess I will save those conversations for other forums I'm on.

    Garboard vs copper tube and plugs?

    Well I have decided.... There will be no transom plug in this up coming boat. Going to run my typing 2 bilge pump setup with one rigged on float setting and the other rigged to flip on by switch. Going to take Steve's advice and get me a couple of blocks of foam for sponging the lil bit of...

    Arkansas Opener Video from Public Land

    So who cares. My reply is the best way to fix the issues. Can't make a egg 🥪 with out breaking eggs. They let that stupidity go on for too long. Now the only way to break it is to break bank accounts and put people out of the game with arrest and financially burdens. Nothing changes a mans...

    Garboard vs copper tube and plugs?

    It can be when the wind kicks up. I hunt super shallow waters, but I still have to travel through deeper sections to get to the dock. With the waters filled with stumps from before the lake was filled, there are times when I have no choice but to take waves across hull sections that will put...

    Arkansas Opener Video from Public Land

    That stupidity right there is why I will never hunt Arkansas public again after last year. I don't know the kid doing the vid, but him and everyone with him in that vid is what's wrong with waterfowl hunting now. Don't really care if my opinion ruffles feathers. The only way to stop the...

    Handloads.

    Like the title says gents. Who is handloading and what y'all handloading? The last few years I have been doing tss/steel duplexes and pure tss handloads for 🦆/geese/🦌 hogs and predators. 1 oz duplex of 50/50 tss/steel at 1450 fps with a cylinder choke is amazing on waterfowl inside 50 yards 1...

    Refinishing your duck gun

    I had a remmy sportsman 12 auto (cheap 1100) completely refinished metal and wood a few years ago It was north of 600 bucks but man did it look amazing. Looks like a beat to heck crappy again now but still goes bang every time. Nother 5 to 10 years I might get it redone again. Think I used...

    Real Name Headaches

    Seems like if they can do that. They can set it up to give a pop up when they hit submit. That clearly tells them use your real name or you will not be allowed in. And make them type their name and hit click. Before it will go through. Something like that would fix the issue I'm sure.

    Garboard vs copper tube and plugs?

    Freezing temps? What's dat? I'm down da bayou, we don't get that round here. Yea they don't exactly enforce things like that around here. I'm a border parish hunter/angler most of my hunting/fishing is either in LA or TX depending on what direction the wind is blowing that day. Full...

    Garboard vs copper tube and plugs?

    Thanks for the reply. I have installed a few drain tubes over the years and never had issues with them. However after owning my duckhunter the last few years and getting ready to build a second one. I have come to realize, I can't get to the plug in the tube while the boat is in the water and...

    Garboard vs copper tube and plugs?

    Thinking about going with a garboard instead of the normal tube and rubber screw plug transom drain. Anyone used both types before and care to give me their thoughts on the two?
