Welcome aboard John, Nice to know I am not the only cheap guy out here, LOL. I have been making decoys for about a year or so and have been using 2 x 6 and 2 x 10 stock. The guys at my Home Depot now know me pretty well, as you have to spend some time going through the stock to find decent...

I didn't keep track of which shot was the flyer. I fired three shots, switched to the 17 HMR, shot three with it and then back to the Howa. I did put my hand on the barrel (bull barrel) and it was still cold after the three rounds were fired. I shot the gun from sand bags, but did not...

"Welp, this AM, we hit a balmy -5F with wind chill. Busted through 200 yards of ice to get to open water, and spent the day in the boat... " Come on, seriously? I figured you southern boys hunted in T-shirts and shorts, LOL. If you cann't find any down there, PM your address, I and I...

I buy a box of Heat Factory Disposable toe warmers each year at the beginning of hunting season. At a cost of about 50 cents each, I figure it's cheap and makes the day much more comfortable. Not sure if sport good stores would carry them down there. Now how cold can it get in KY? Up...

I clean the gun when i am done shooting and oil lightly. I have seen shooters clean after each group, but that's father then I want to go. I bought the Tasco years ago, because i wanted a mil dot scope, for $100 I am happy with it. I would like to move up to a Les Bear varmint gun and then...

"Then again maybe it already is and it's your shooting that is holding you back" Thanks for the encourgement Pete, LOL. But I think your right, looking at my groups I generally have two shots that are about 1/2" apart and then one out. I have tried about 8 different types of ammo, with...

I have a book titled Shop Accessories you can Build, one of the Best of Fine Woodworking series. In there a guy built a 1" by 42" sander with the frame made out of wood, and for the rollers he lamenated press board or masonite together. Going to leave shortly and go to Fleet and Harbor Freight...

Decided I want to build a 2" belt sander or knife sander. I looked around the internet for one, and couldn't find a whole lot. Grizzly makes one, but at $500, it's too much for a sander I am not going to use a often. I picked up a 2" x 60" belt for $3 at my local woodworking store, I have...

I have a 223 Howa 1500 with a Tasco varmint scope on it. At 100 yards with factory ammo, I am getting 1" groups consistantly, at 200 yards I am averaging about 2" groups with an occansional 1 1/4" groups and at 300 yards about 3 1/2" groups. Is this good, average or poor? I am assuming...

Phil looks like you have got a fun summer project there, good luck with it and keep us posted. Any chance we will get to see it atnext year's get together?

Mark, I too have one of them. So far I really like mine, and yes I have carried stuff hanging out over 8'. However, I have hear they are illegal in several states, and some require lights on them. I haven't been stopped yet and will continue using it until I do. One thing I am...

Went looking for a new choke tube for my Beretta, man alot of choices. Cheapest is $19.99, not sure what you get Black Cloud's was $49.99, but does it only work well with their ammo? Pattern Master was the most expensive at $94.99, their long range model, says it delivers a full...

Thanks guys, Carl I went out to their website, I couldn't find the PDF you found, reading through it, it doesn't sound too difficult, but just in case, I am taking to somebody that knows more than I do.

Picked up a Beretta 391 Urika and the safety is pushed off the opposite of my old 390, can this be changed? On my old 390, my trigger finger reached forward to push the safety off. On the 391, it's needs to be pushed from the left side of the gun to the right, which makes taking a quick...

This is Michael, Andrew's son, Thanks for the complements! Dave, no I did not Bleed or cut myself. Thanks again For the knife! Michel

My son's school has an art fair each year. Last year he got a 1st on a small intarisa project, of a cat sleeping made up of about 15 pieces. This year he wanted to something bigger, and I suggested he try making a decoy, as I have been work on six New Jersey style Red Heads, but he wanted...

If you haven't heard, anybody that bought something either through the catalog or in a store on Friday the 16th and paid by debt or charge card, got billed again yesterday. I had bought new waders and a couple other items. Talking with customer service yesterday, they said 32,000 people were...

Eric D. ended up "winning" the contest with the name JUGGERNAUT jug·ger·naut (jgr-nôt) KEY NOUN: Something, such as a belief or institution, that elicits blind and destructive devotion or to which people are ruthlessly sacrificed. An overwhelming, advancing, unstoppable force that...

General cooridates and I know it over my head, would guess it's about 10-15'. Trying to come up with some type of rake I can drag behind the boat to see what I can find. Lost my gun (in a none floating case), really nice hunting jacket, game bag, several boxes of shells, lanyard, GPS and...

Your not helping (LOL), my is at the bottom of the Bay right now, and very doubtful I will be able to get it back
