Not if you want to live to a ripe old age!

Since most of the major research has disproved that Bigfoot is real I would think I was drunk again after 40 years being sober.

English Setters or Pointers,Brittney,Cockers,Labs GSH, all good for either.

Good for you!

26", they are good from Skeet to anything else with the proper chokes installed.

Remington 700 anything from 243-30/06

Much quieter but not as effective over 50 yards as a rule.

There is absolutly NO WAY I cann recomment that! It's a very good eay for you to insure you are severely injured at least or possibly killrd. A .22 will break up and not penetrate enough for a safe kill. Wild boar are extremely tough snf drtrmined animsls, I would not recommend any thing less than a 270, or a 357 Magnum Pistol, and then ONLY if you are sure of bulley placement/

Ruger 25-06

243 or larger no doubts with a Silvertip in the neck

Googlemaps are as good as any.

Smoothbore Brenneke slugs, rifled barrel Sabot, BRI if possible.

Also make sure you have a cantilever Rifled slug barrel, the scope will be much more stable.

I have some of both of there books and enjoy them very much they are reputedly the Two best Shooting writers of all.

Check this site! http://www.taurus-handguns.com/category/958-Taurus_Raging_Bull.aspx

Listen to those guys they are correct.

I would not dispute Jack, I have never gone over 6X.

Garmin, is made in Olathe KS I have toured the offices and factory, I am impressed,they are the best out there. (JMNSVHO)

I prefer an 870, but nothing wrong with Benelli.

Jawohl

30/06 unless you going after something with claws & fangs then as big as you can handle.

I prefer Remingtons in almost any caliber, for any kind of hunting, they are very eliable and have never failed me. ( I sometimes fail to fully use the rifle to its fullest accuracy BUT who has not?) If I had tons of money I would buy some of the Holland and Holland or Merkel Double Rifles For REALY big and dangerous game. Other than that I like my Rifles , Pistols and Shotguns to be American Made. ( D8mn few around these days ) D*mmit

Cabelas, Dicks Gart Bros in Denver ,Local sporting goods shops.

ALWAYS check with Fish & Game if you are not sure, it's much better than losing your right to hunt,and whatever penalties they will put upon you, like loseing you gun, the game and your vehicle. IT DOES HAPPEN!

No but check with Fish & Game.

http://www.impactguns.com/store/fausti.html Check out this site.

30/06 has probably killed more species of medium to Large animals than any other.

Rem 700 in 30/06 up to elk, 375 H7H anything bigger or with fangs and claws

243, is the smallest caliber "recommended" for Whitetails, I consider it to be marginal. especially if you do not hit perfectly. Get your self either a .270or 30/06 30/06 has more bang flops than anything smaller. ( on the Battlefield too.)

According to the season is the best answer.

Only if it were legal and I had a tag's a pelt would be nice to have.

Nope, but I usually benefit from the dear coming in my direction if the first guy misses! :)

Head shot.

Remington 1100 20 or 12 Ga

Soak it in lye. It will also bleach it.

.223 will do the job.

Great rods!

Sound like a bargain that's for sure!

- 16 ga., 2 9/16 in. chamber from 1937-1940, and 2 3/4 in. chamber from 1947-1975, similar configuration to Lightweight, 12 and 20 ga., gold plated trigger, 10 oz. lighter than Standardweight Model 16 ga., 1937-1940 mfg.

IN KS the course costs $150 (average) The application fee is $150 90 to the Sheriff of your county, requires three sets of fingerprints, NCIC checks, local background checks and proof of citizenship, then 60 to the Attorny General of the State's office for their check, took 9 weeks to get. A bit slow I thought but worth it. But if you cannot afford see if open carry is allowed in your area, BUT, you can bet the Punks will take it as a challenge.

If you can see into his eyes, your within HIS Range too. Not as good place to be.

Your sure right about that Bee!

Camo is over rated both in hunting and in combat. Been there done that in Viet Nam and a few other places.

I am with 86 Ram all they way, 2 of you need to wake up and smell the coffee.

Best bet would be a fully rifled bbl with a cantilever and scope with Sabot slugs.

A double sized sleeping bag, Ann Margret, some food and a GPS Find me device for in the morning.

Also make sure he does not object, and you should be O.K.

It was questionable though I would not have taken a shot then.

I carry a S&W 686 Plus strictly as a backup. In a holster the weight is not so bad.

Nope.

Definitely the 870, I shot slugs in a Mosst*rd once and it would not cycle correctly. I was in Alaska in Bear Country and threw it in the Chena River and bought an 870 an hour later.

Im in will see Del again soon.

The LARGE "Standard" Poodle was originally used in Europe ( France mostly to retrieve ducks), believe it or not they ae good swimmers and a very gutsy dog , can weigh as much as 60 lbs, not like Aunty Mabels lap rat.

When I lived in Colorado Springs, about 1/2 way up Cheyenne Mountain, I opened the door to see a Cougar looking at me, so I quickly closed the douur grabbed my 12 Ga. opened it again he was standing between me and the car, so I stepped out and shot him. Called the Sheriff and told him about it, he said fine take him to the taxidermist! I still have the skin.

Too warm there.

Treestand you would do well to heed the advice of Clay Cooper, Dakotaman , S GA Redneck and Big O, I shot a high expert with the M1 Garand in 1959,& 1960, but that was on a KD Range at Fort Riley, I know my limitations, you need to set up at a KD range and learn yours. ( For the non military people KD is A KNOWN DISTANCE RANGE.)

As big as you can handle! 45/70 sounds good to me.

Remington 700 in 30/06 BIGGER if your after Dangerous or Large game, especially if they have fangs and claws.

Yes they are. Some people even use 28 GA.

A morlin Auto, and a youth model Rem 870 20 ga

Well I will say in Vietnam in Montagnyard country there were very few dogs, and plenty of meat on the table.

Depends on what I am after and how far I plan on taking the shot.

Dec 2 here in KS, waiting patiently NOT!

Go ahead and get a 28 if you want one, but use it for quail.

Nothing at all wrong with a Browning in any of those calibers, if you pland BIG game hunts buy a big Cal.

I like Ballistic Silvertips or I believe I shou;d say my MOD 700 does!

Good for you meat is more important than antlers anyway you can't eat antlers! :)

30/06

When I see a good deal then I will spend up to $500.00 for assorted ammo. Best deal I have run into lately was 45ACp & 357 Mag @ $10.00 A box at an estate sale I bought 1,000 rounds of each. (All they had).

Shotgun about 2,000 12 ga, Pistol about 1000ea ,357 &.45ACP, Rifle 30/06 150 Practice and what ever it takes to limit out, .22 who knows , well over 1000

I can only agree! I own a Remington 700 30/06 and if I fail to kill bambi it's MY Fault not the gun.

The Farm Store sells Carharts and Walls bibs at decent prices

Only on the last day of season if I have not shot anything else, I will admit they are tender and taste better.

J.C. Whitney catalog, almost any Parts store or your Ford Dealer.

Rake up all the acorns you can find and spread them out in addition to the other suggestions, deer love 'em!

Why is it even necessary to ask this question? The answer is clear OBEY the mans wishes... or lose a friend!

A salt lick with molasses, some apples,corn etc.

You cannot got wrong with a Remington, then a Leupold or Burris scope.

Its a fine gun, but don't just take it ask him for it.

Why not go with an Auto 30/06? That will tame the recoil for you?

Fill the tag' you cant cook it ! :)

I agree, there is no logical reason for it, having a tail helps a dog balance itself.

870 Express

I think Remington barrels retail for about 250 or so, but it's a good investment.

Sorry for your loss Jay, I anticipating my dog dying soon, (she is 17 ) I almost wish I could go first.

Any Remington 700 I would get a 270, good all aroung gun for anything up to Whitetails.

Good for you, if I were 30 years younger I would try a bow!

BioGuy said it best, and if you have a nice buck already, let the rest grow up, does are better eating.

If you like the 870 and 1100 or 11-87 will be the right gun for you.

Sabot rounds only in a rifles barrel.

Hmmmmmmmmm, we should send some to the Police Dept at Ft. Hood! ( Just in case there are more wacked out Pshrinks with diapers on their heads.

Nope.

I think I would not have bothered to "Finish" the Smoke, but then I don't smoke anyway. It would have made sense to immediately go and look for the deer. Sorry he lost it that way though, it may have been fortunate that he did not run up on the guy stealing it because who knows what may have happened then.

If I ordered it would be from cheaperthandirt.com or Midwayusa.com its much cheaper than Cabelas, I usually go to Cabelas to find what I want and order from my shooting club and always save a bunch of money.

I have Goodyear Wrangler RT/S and heve been in Hub deep mud & snow with no problems.

Down to the bottom of this article. "Unforgettable Bowhunters - Inside the Lives of the Sport's Most Famous and Infamous Personalities" by M.R. James, gives biographical accounts of some of the world's top hunting archers, including Fred Bear, Ted Nugent, Chuck Adams and Nathan Anderson. It also delves into the darker side of intentional and unintentional violations that felled high-profile archers as surely as the game they had taken with bows and arrows. Noel Feather and Roger Rothhaar lost high-profile hunting media careers over improperly tagging a single deer. Robert Hansen, a famous archer, was also a psychopathic killer who also hunted human prey in the most chilling manner imaginable. ISBN 0-9721321-5-5; Ihunt; Communications;

Most of us have that problem, even worse my Dawg pee's on my leg when I miss!

Swing past the birds and follow through.

Well I have all the racks I need on the wall already, so I shoot mostly does now for meat, you can't eat horns.

Horns are the least important part of it, the MEAT is what I am after, horn is just a bonus! Be happy.

I will pick up other peoples brass and take it to reload if it some I need or put in a container at my skeet club. I am always looking to Remington STS's :0

Worst thing you can do is run! If you had fallen you would have been dead probably. You should have shot one the rest would probably run off or stopped to eat the other one. Unless you can get up a tree never run.

Prefer Leupold.

I would use a slug instead! #4 Buck is a yote bobcat & puma, badger etc, load . ( At close range )

It is clearly marked on the Barrel which shells may be fired in it. All my gun barrells tell which you can use if its a 2 3/4 Chamber it will say 2 3/4 shells ONLY if if it has a 3" Chanber it will say you can shoot either.

Nothing I can add all or those calibers will work, if you have a good call and blind maybe a 12 ga! I shot one close one time in my yard and that was the only gun handy, made a mess out of him though!

Depends on who's "Beaver". :)

Glad you found him, great job finding him.

You cannot go wrong with a Remington 700 in any caliber.

My wife starts out with "Dales Steak Seasoning From Birmingham AL, should be available anywhere, adds chili powder,sage,cumin and curry powders in small amounts. Its always good!

It is a "suspicious behavior" that I would not participate in. It's also been illegal everywhere I have lived.

The Taurus has most of the features of the Kimber at 1/4 of the price, so does One of the Rock Island Armory moseld made in the the Philippines, both are accurate and fire Hollow point rounds with no additional modifications which is definitely a plus.

I have read that the Chinese used to think they were an aphrodisiac, but that was in the day when everyone thought Rinosaurus horns and Lion testicles were too. :)

I have never been THAT hungry.

!0 point, or higher I have an 11, or any atypical, that's all I want now and only one of those.

Full

None I can think of.

Yes.

Glad you finally got one, you should be more relaxed next time!

I use molasses, they are DEFINITELY attracted to that.

I only take pictures of the mount when I get it back from the taxidermist. That way my non hunting friends don't barf all over the place!

I personally would not eat the meat.

Good to see them home again, My father and far too many of the soldiers I served with never made it back. My dad bought the farm at Iwo Jima, I never saw him.

Just about any sporting goods store. Try to find a locally owned store. They will treat you better than the big box stores!

I agree, the alternative is to try it yourself and &^%$ it up.

I rarely get excited till AFTER a successful shot.

There is nothing wrong with shooting does, the meat is usually better tasting, I have all the bucks I have room for on my wall (2, 1 11 Pt ,1 9 Pt. If I ever shoot another buck ,it will have to have a MONSTER rack (hopefully atypical).

What can I say but I agree with everyone here and thank you for the kind thought! Well done Clay, "Garry Owen" form an old broken down Air Cavalryman.

If they are by chance diseased the organs will show it most times. If your in doubt have a butcher or someone knowledgeable look for you.

I listen to it for entertainment !!

You DON'T want to know what I think, and neither do I want you to know.

SP 101 or Walther PP depending on were I am.

Sounds like a veery good deal to me also, but when I lived they I did my own.

870

Since you are successful in spite of smoking will not give a - to you! But I would not share a blind! I am very allergic to smoke of any kind can't have a fireplace either!

Bdu's work as good as anything else, are cheaper and last longer.

Reloads!

Remington 30/06 for up to elk, 375 H&H for Larger and Dangerous game, or those with claws and fangs.

Seen several.

I agree with Dakotaman, and it saves a lot of ducks for next year! ( Pun intended!)

I don't feel the need to change the 11-87 I already have for a 3 & 1/2 inch chamber. Love the one I have, picked it up used last week at the skeet club.

Not yet, it may be someones pet :)

No defference, bur I do/t buy anything from Wally-World".

That is the weight of the projectile. The Cartridge will account for the rest of the weight.

Illinois is one place that requires a state issued ID to even buy ammo, much less bring it into the state, my son lives there and is b**ching about it, I don't blame him.

Buy an 870, been around a long time did not need "improving" :)

Nothing has ever jammed in My 870, 16 Ga made in 1961 but you may want to have the ejector checked.

I would think so, they have a high incidence of rabies and other diseases, also they will kill your chickens and pets, they are destructive also.

Both of those fall under the old Military Prase "chit happens" eh?

Rifle,Multi Tool,Lighter

Any of Robert Ruarks books,Jack O'Connor also.

A 12Ga with SLUGS!

Ish, Bella, ya'll are ornery critters!

NEVER EVER go where animals with fangs and claws can reach you without a GUN big enough to kill the biggest animal you are likely to meet up with. Doing otherwise is just plain stupid.

BOth points of view, Ignore or be ready to shoot have merit, but NEVER EVER go into the woods with out the means to defend yourself, there are many things out there that can and will kill you many without a warning of provocation, that can also happen in cities too. Always be prepared.

Cotn acorns salt licks with mollasses,apples,pears you name it hey will likely eat it.

Ditto.

Thank you both, I spent 4 hour marching in a parade today.

That's because the "Long Legged Mack Daddy" wants the Health Care Plan passed and the Media is enabling him.

Lets NOT ASSume the person asking the question is the felon guys

Sad for a while until I cooked and ate the meat!

I would pick either 1 308 or 30/06, mainly because of the extra bullet weight and pricomg I believe both are a little less money.

Heaviest available.

You bet I do, I never liked AR's at all, the .223 round is a POS on the battle field and not effective as a hunting round. Making them in alrger calber is ok, but they should be limited in scope, the people who think they are "cool "Man" are mostly "wannabe's". having fired hundres of round in and out of combat zones I really wante my old M1 Garand back.

Thanks all of you for the kind words, I spent 4 hours marching in a parade this morning and it was an awesome experience. ( Wore my dress blues for the first time in 20 years and they still fit!.

Look at the end of the barrel, if you see cut marks on the choke it can be removed if it is smooth with no spece for a wrench or coin a fixed choke.

Would have been safer & wiser to move.

Those kind words ae appreciated, thanks guys!

There are pistols called the "Judge" by Taurus that shoot both410 & 45 Long Colt, shotguns are not generally made to withstand the pressure of a pistol or rifle cartridge. So I would not.

Since I have a choice between 30/06 and 375 H&H that I don't get to use often in Moose Country or Grizzly country I would practice and shoot the .375 just for fun. Although I am sure 30/06 will handle it.

They know!

Frog colored Jitterbug.

Not safe at all it will blow it (and quite possible you) UP!

10-4, not respecting your commitments starts small and gets bigger and more often once you start, POLITICIANS prove this on a daily basis.

Same here Del.

Great news Del one more to spoil, byt that's the fun of having GK's!

I would also got with the Ruger.

Good lord!

Get a dehydrator, marinade the same.

I would also go with .300 Win Mag, its been around forever and will be.

Wait till he's DONE then shoot let him die happy! Heh Heh.

All over Florida.

Anja, you did the right thing in NOT shooting, think how you would feel if you had shot your friend because you could not see him.

$225-250 range, but I would not sell it.

It's too bad that who ever shot HIM did not do a better job of it,now the schmuck will eat at taxpayer's expense for the next 40 years. Don't ask my opinion about how to prevent more of it.

Only moose I have killed was in AK also just outside of Delta Junction, with a 30/06, hit him just behind the ear Bang flop, about 40 yards away ( he was in my yard) sometimes it's too easy. But he fed three families, the Wife & I, and two others families out of work.

Marlin 60 or Ruger 10-22 or any .410 Shotgun

Molasses works better and is a lot cheaper.

Camo is over rated and over priced in most cases, Put your Stand as high as you can,be still and descent what ever you wear tan,brown and green works well.

Ditto

Both same reason.

Does in heat! ;)

870

Anything you want a Bang, Flop.

Smoked is my favorite way.

I took my son at 11, I had been taking him to the skeet range and several friends were talking about pheasant hunting and invited him and I along. He got a double on his first flush, and he loves pheasant hunting still.

Both and have someone in each!

I agree! If you have permission and are very careful with your shots, and a license no reason not to do it. Feeding your family is your biggest concern.

Should be ok with light loads at first.

KS Sells deer tags OTC there is a lottery for Elk at Ft Riley good luck with that!

It should be.

The only lowbrass Remington's I shoot are STS Or Nitro 27s for skeet.

Kenton I had one of those too.

Not in my camp.

We do our own.

Nope

Its a very good Idea, Cannon Makes a good one at a reasonable price, I loaded mine up with lead shot bags on the floor and a lot of ammo on the shelves for extra weight also. No one is gonna get that sucker up the stairs.

I always buy boots clothing and sox at clearance prices once the GOOD stuff cheaper than the schlock at Wally-world. Scored a NEW Pair of Sorels in my size for 39.95 At Cabelas tent sale last year. And new Browning boots this year for 29.95 this year. Gotta admit I buy ammo there at Wally's tho.

Blue Marlin, I have caught and release a few Tarpon already.

Let the anti's walk the trail, that might do some good;. seriously though if it's legal go ahead and shoot 'em. Snares may get your pets.

Camo is overrated anyway, our grandfathers never had it.

Walther PP for 69.95 From the Rod & Gun Club in Nurnburg Germany in 1989.

Definately agree with the Majority SLUCS! # 4 Buckshot for Bad Guys and smaller things .

I use a Remington 30/06 Remington 700 for everything in the lower 48, unless it is something really big or have Fangs & Claws, then 375 H&H.

Not many people are good at neck shots at long range, if your very close ok.

I personally would go with a .308 packs a little more punch, is very accurate and there is plenty of surplus ammo to practice with. Recoils never hurt me even with an old M-14 in 1961 with a metal butt plate. But I really prefer a 30/06.

I would say probably, they all seem to like the same foods.

He's right!

I have been able to get Plenty of 12 GA, 20 Ga, 16Ga, 30/06, 45 ACP,357&38 Cals, Plenty of Shotshell reloading supplies. I live in Kansas.

Unless your city specifically ALLOWS bow hinting ( Some do) DON'T even think about it!

Depends on WHERE you are hunting, If your out in the open a Scope, in the thick brush iron sights!

?

Good for him, but I hope he does not think it will be that eaSY ALL THE TIME. {8^)

Not in my camp.

Back in the Day (1959) When issued a "New" M1 Garand the Drill SGT gave use linseed oil and told us he whanted to see ---holes & elbows till he could shave in the shine on those stocks Worked well then.

Real for me got plenty in my yard.

BDU's cheaper and last longer :)

308 should do for hawgs.

When L was confronted I just backed up far enough to kick the schmuck in the Gonads, FIGHT WAS OVER! It would happen about once when I changed schools.

My old Drill Sgt had a word for how to shoot better B.R.A.S.S Breath, Relax, Sight Picture, Shoot.

Hiking, Photography, Reading, Blogging(Here Mostly), Reloading, Skeet Shooting ,( Watching classic movies , Listen to music, with a certain lady) Traveling with the same lady, buying, selling and trading guns and cameras and cars. Much more.

A little overkill eh Rocketman! But it's an interesting thought.

Sout Florida has serious problems with Pythons and other snakes and animals that have been brought in illegally,as well as no culling of alligators for many years has also caused loss of lif to many pets and more seriously to children. If exotics are brought in at all there should be STRICT controls and high fences.

A 270 is better .223 is not legal in many places.

Don't even try.

Except for squirrels and rabbits theyare not often effective.

I second that, bear in mind you get what you pay for!

Well maybe he could carry a Quail, but not any thing really big,such a a goose so why try?

He looks in Occasionally

Carlson's make some really good ones also.

20 Ga is a fine gun for most upland shooting, but I have seen plenty of turkeys taken with them too.Not to mention deer with slugs, and its a hell of a skeet gun.

Good to see you back, yup ready.

My best guess would be at almost any Skeet or Trap Range, Cabelas, Garts, in Colorado or any Major Sporting Goods Store

I have seen one, and a lot of tracks in NE KS.

I would rather give a youngster a Model 700 I have one and hardly feel any recoil at all.

Good. thinking! Elmer

Way to go Elmer! I agree!

I am always too late to do antyhing it seems, by the timr I see them thet have been run over several times!

I bought a "C" Store 1 HP three years a ago and it never gives any trouble. add abela to the c ;)

If I wanted a .308 I would buy an M1A also.

Good shooting.

1. Back to Alaska 2. Back To Europe 3 Africa for the Big 5.

159 Ballistic tips.

I was thinking no, UNTIL I read Bioguys reasoning, now I think I might, but mainly for the meat.

Salt licks and molasses, Corn,apples, Doe in heat estrus,etc.

Good for you and the boy DEL!

30/06

I got this from Google Search, Could not copy the authors name however, ( I did try but it was a crazy screen name) when I lived in Florida I saw black "panthers" many times, could be that some have migrated who knows? Some people here are obviously confused. There is no actual species called a black panther - this is merely the name commonly given to melanistic leopards. That is, leopards with an excess of the dark pigment melanin, resulting in an almost totally black coat (the markings will still show up against the background in certain lights). Some people also refer to melanistic jaguars as panthers, though this is not technically correct. Jim, melanism can occur in any species, just like albinism - as I said, it occurs in leopards fairly frequently as well as in jaguars. Therefore, a melanistic mountain lion (also called the puma or cougar, or Florida panther in the case of the subspecies found in Florida) is entirely possible. There are occasional sightings of black mountain lions reported, though I don't believe any of these have actually been verified in the wild. However, in the film 'Cat People', a black mountain lion appears in several scenes. It is definitely a mountain lion and it is definitely black. So either it is a melanistic individual, or someone dyed a mountain lion's fur black, which I think you'll agree is rather unlikely.

Go back it is his territory!

Dear love pears,apples you name it!

Same here.

I like Remingyon First then Savage, since I had issues with a Weatherby Orion Shotgun about 20 years ago with a split stock after 500 shells shooting skeet I won't even consider one of their rifles. But that's JMNSVHO.

Corn, blocks and molasses

Glad to see you back Bee! I asked a very young Dr about Paragoric, he said he never heard of it, So I told him my Grandpa was a Pharmacist ( Called a "Druggist" in those days (40s & 50s) and I hung out with him in the Store and that was the trade name, "Tincture of Opium 5%" is the Technical term. So I am surprised you found someone to give it to you. "Lomotil is what they gave me last week when I had the "trots" and it works pretty well.

Maybe it look's that easy when Foxworthy & his bud's kill 'em on TV but that is because a 3 day hunt is edited to a 30 minute TV show. I find that most of my kills come in the last possible legal moment in the evening after I have scouted most of the day.

Check with DNR in your state if it leagel to bait, anything can be used , but they love appleas well as acorns, if you have an oak tree why buy baits?

http://personalsecurityzone.com/cgi-win/order/prodlist.exe/PSZ/SEARCH?CategoryID=41&Page=3 This outfit has a couple on their site!

1. Say thank you 2. Give him a hug 3. Take him to the range 4. Take him Hunting 5. Have a BBQ and invite him after your first buck 6. Hunt with him often

And he asked for advice? H*ll he should give some.

I have always used Petzkes Salomon eggs for that! They don't cost much and work better.

Won't live there while Harry Reid does.

2 Poppa that was a very good posr! if I could I would give a + for each paragraph!!!!

I agree that camo is not all it's cI can smeeracked up to be, but I can smell smoke @ 50 yards or more and I am sure deer can too.

that is why you don't go into a wooded area without SOME sort of weapon, even a large knife could have helped!

I got a letter from a bank in Nigeria that said they owed me $50,000,000 and If I sent them my ID # to my bank account the would send it.

I also use Winchester Silver tips 130 gr

I like either Brenneke or BRI Sabot slugs.

Get well soon Bee!

Cebelas, UNLESS I am in Denver than its Gart's or Dave Cook.

OO7, I fired expert in 1959 with an M=1 Garand by hitting all my shots on the 500 yd line and only a few misses closer in. So that is one fine rifle that will perform out to 1,000 yards but I never shot that far out,

Slugs are more effective at that range than OO.

Tere are small tubes called "Little Skeeters" . You can put in the Breach of SxS & O/U shotguns that allow you yo shoot smaller Ga. shells without having multiple guns or extra barrel sets, but they are not entirely satisfactory. There are custom tubes that do the same thing. Neither work in Pump or Automatics to my knowledge. If so I am sure someone on here most likely Mr. Petzal or Bourjally (SP) will be able to tell you.

30/06 Remington 700

Varmints mostly, or as 007 said very short ranges on deer. Or a good defense weapon in the countryside.

Rem 879

I agree with Jeff.

It had a bad review in Gasp! Guns & Ammo, something about the coating not lasting well. I don't really know.

One more year for him and see if he improves, if not take him out then and have a BBQ.

Leupold

700 in 30/06 gives you more options if you want larger game also.

DD's HMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMmmm.

Amen brother!

Del you forgot about the canned hot dogs? NOthing could make those things taste good! I like spam pretty well if its sliced very thing and fried crisp, the BBQ suace over it. Not real enthused about Vienna Sausage, which I doubt originates in the city which gave us Schnitzles!

Not as personal as the coon would bt bet! ; ^D

HAppy birthday! Just a god scope and you will be knocking the squirrels out of the trees!

One sold here for $400 http://www.proxibid.com/asp/Catalog.asp?aid=22308&ipp=100

Anyone heard how Ted Barta is doing?

If you want to step up into REALLY big and dangerous game go for 375 H&H otherwise a 30/06 will handle anything in the Lower 48.

F&S should hire you as a writer, that was very well done! And your honesty is a good thing also.

Sorry no price on this one in this article but should give an Idea of age etc. http://wiki.answers.com/Q/What_is_Value_of_remington_target_master_model_41_22_cal

Never failed me.

Radio Shack

Stop hunting with him. No questions!

I found this it may help you. http://www.benelliusa.com/rifles/benelli_r1_rifle.php

As long as you use enough gun to do the job, most people recomment a 44 Magnum for large animals, the 480 Ruger may have an edge if it;s and extremely large or dangerous animal I have fired the S&W 500 at targets, but am not confident with it so I will stick with my Super Red Hawk. I only take it out as a backup weapon, but I am confident in shooting it. I fire 50 rounds a week as practice.

30/06 is my favorite for anything in the "Outside" as they say in AK, good to have if you run into something that can kill YOU, instead of the other way around. For BIG animals with Fangs and Claws .375 H&H will handle it.

Always have the safety on, anything else is a no brainer .

1100.

No excuse for that!

10-4 country road, I hunt to eat venison instead of beef.

30/06 Remington BDL w/ Simmons Whitetail scope.

Glad to hear of the good result in Court, your Grandfather is one heck of a guy!

Minute of deer works for me!

HUH? I can't hear ya, shudda worn plugs in the Army! Heh Heh Seriously though NOT wearing plugs cost me about 50% hearing loss and tinnitus . You should wear them any time you are shooting unless you have a suppressor, ( and they don't really work well on high calibers!

Things do change over time, but I am on the side that believes in "intelligent design" or CREATION moving with conditions!

I prefer not to shoot at a running deer UNLESS it is passing very close by. I will shoot one that is walking however have done so several times.

I hear there are a few in Northern Kansas, although I have not seen them, one was reported to have been hit by a truck in I 70 near the CO Border.

Jeep, I rode in an Army issue hummer in Grafenwohr just before I retired and we got stuck, it never happened in a Jeep.

There are some similar Ruger's on this site, it should get you "CLOSE" to the right price http://www.usedgunsales.com.au/index.php?c=198&a=19&b[search_titles]=1&b[search_descriptions]=1&order=5

To bad that bustard could swim eh? ( FYI a bustard is a bird not what you may have thought!)

Elk if it were near me, that is the best tasting, but I will still take Whitetails.

Cooner has the best answer, I would always wait for a doe that is alone. I like venison but wont shoot a mother doe traveling with a fawn. In Germany if your caught you lose your license , and it is a lifetime license which you will NEVER get back!

A good salt lick with molasses poured on it whill do just as well and a lot cheaper!

11 Point 225 pounder

I had a Hoochie Momma in Korea but thatis another story!

The Gulf is the best swimming experience in Texas or any of the states that border on it. I used to use only a face mask and flippers.

Just surfing the net.

No such thing as too many gun's, the problem is the wife does not agree!

My Grandads Parker

Have never fired one biggest Cal I have fired is 375 H&H, that will know yur tallywacker off unless you hold it tight to the pocket.

Nothing is more useless than a gun that is not loaded, mcd has good advice!

That is one h-ll of a deer!!! Good for him!

#0/06 his my favorite except if I am after somthing wil Fangs Or Claws then I step up to 375 H&H

Supposed to have a Hard Freeze in NE KS tonight.

BB

Seen plenty of stumps, never fired at one though.

Good one DakotaMan only if ya wanna get gored!!!

A really good cleaning and replacing the rubber "O" ring should do the trick, anther good product for cleaning is Unscented Mineral Spirits ( Paint Thinner) my wife appreciates it much more than Strik Hold a new product that cleans very well but you don't dare use indoors ! (Trichlorethelene in it) Which is the Replacement for Carbon Tetrochloride which can kill you. ALSO do not spray any Aerosol Gun oil in the action over time it will gum it up! Happened to me at a fun shoot once.!

Chamber size is ALWAYS Marked on the Barrel,most often on the left side

I am glad to see the support our troops get now, As a retired Viet Nam era vet with some other firefights over the years, FORTUNATELY not wounded ( Just lucky I guess ) we would have been grateful just not to have been spit on in San Francisco when we got back,

Gun Digest will get you in range , or as they said Gunbroker.com can probably get you a good deal.

Remington 1100 or 11-87 I have never had a malfuntion except once when I got a used one the ownere before me NEVER cleaned the $%&^ thing. So I field stripped it used Strike Hold on the Trigger Housing and everything else, replace the "O' ring and no problems since. They are very reliable. Always have a new "O" ring with you though that is the weak link in the chain.

If you cant tell the difference (and that should only happen with jakes) don't shoot.

They deny it in KS too But my bro in Law has seen the cats, and I have tracked one.

Got to agree with Happy, as Robert Ruark said repeatedly make sure you use ENOUGH gun. Especially with LARGE dangerous game.

Plano. Check yard sales, you can also fing good equipment also.

I just ignore the ads unless they have one I am interested it, they don't bother me.

At least a mile, more if you can walk it.

Yup, they are mean little schmucks that's for sure, been treed one or twice also.

There are medical solutions see an opthomologist

or scrape them with a knife

Anyone over 40 has those!

GREAT!!!!!!!

amo id not necessary my Granddad used to wear plaid shirts in Dark colors and it worked fine, You shoud see how the Germans dress to huntm Leather Pants Bright reds sock, Green Jackets, white shirts green hats. And they rarely come home without a deer, boar or both.

First of all SurvivalBOY needs to grow up first spend some time in the military, I do no believe all the conspiracy crap that is being passed around. BUT I have plenty of arms and ammo, IF anyone comes after me there better be enough that will take several rounds and still have one or two to police up the brass from around my body.

READ the book! (If you CAN read), its furnished for a reason, ALL weapons are different.

As long as you use 3" loads you should be doing pretty good,

Yup most of the news media think anything that holds more than 5 rounds is an assault weapon, I dumb sumbich thought my Remington 870 was an assault weapon!

Jitterbug

If you fire 38 Specials in a 686 S&W 4 or 6" bbl you will have no problem with recoil. Get the Hogue grips for even less.

Use anything that goes BANG! yotes are vermin.

I generally don't kill anything that small, ( except for rattler's, then I use a .357 pistol with #7 shot

Don't change a thing your doing pretty good now, just work on your sight picture and holding.

Don't let the teasing get you down, older guys do that ya know?

I think his trigger finger is twitchy waiting for season opener? Maybe?

I can think of nothing more to add, except I agree with everyone so far on the advice given.

BIOGUY that's assuming you can fit in a Gaot-Aid bottle right? Heh Heh ;^0

I doubt it.

If they are too picky tell them to fix their own food!

Not very likely to survive that move!

Take it to a skeet club if its a double or auto, some of them will probably buy it.

I would consider that a plead the 5th question.

I have and 870 in 16 Ga that was manufactured in 1961 ( Verified by calling Remington and giving the Serial Number.) I have yet to have a problem with it. So of course I prefer Remingtons, I have 3 of their Shotguns, and 2 Of their rifles at the moment (Have have more in the past and expect more in the future.) {8^D

Go with an experience hunter watch, listen and learn from him

Loved hunting in AK @-30

Agreed!

Unless your going SOUTH by that I mean any State that touches the Gulf, DONT!

Best I could do was find a 12 Ga for sale by Cabelas! Should give you an idea. http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/content/community/gun_inventory/inventory/ft_worth/european_sg/796589_garbi_fw.jsp?hierarchyId=11651&cmCat=netcon&cm_ven=netcon&cm_cat=Google&cm_pla=Armas%20Garbi%203200%2010%20Ga%20SHotgun&cm_ite=netcon

Good for you! Did you check out Sweet Home, OR? I would love to live there.

REad about them in the KC Star a couple of days ago. Great to hear about them. I was very surprised though that the ULTRA-Liberal Rag printed it! There may be hope for the paper yet.

They are essentially useless except on Paper targets. Absolutely not reliable for game or even self defense.

I used to have one, let my son talk me out of it. Now I have another one!

Good for you Del, I just found the card with your e-mail addy on it will send you one so we bth have them. You are a Saint to those boys!

I second libertyfirsts idea, no need to be OCD!

Only on Skeet when they are crossing.

IC for most except high flying geese or ducks then Full, Full or X full for turkeys.

There is no reason to my way of thinking that the hunter should not offer some of the meat to the tracker AND his dog. After all without the tracker and dog he would not have anything.

30/06 will take most things down in the Lower 48, you can't go wrong with one.

Practice first1

IF THERE IS NO SEASON IN YOUR STATE, IF YOU SHOOT IT YOU HAD BETTER BE ABLE TO PROVE IT WAS ATTACKING YOU. Sorry for typing large but that was for emphasis!

Does it go BOOM, or By Yumpin yimany? ( Sorta liked that old gunsmith in El Dorado with John Wayne! ;)

Hey sgaredneck, we think a lot alike! Do you have kin in Buchanan Cedertown or Rockmart?

I am betting the public outcry as a result of the TV coverage will force the issue, that's what it took (With Senator Ted Stevens help) to get a "PRESUMPTION of cause determination' on my illnesses from Viet Nam being due to Agent Orange.

Good luck in the Navy, the Army was very good to me for 27 years, avionics is a very good field.

Could be cost of Ammo, I still use 30/06 for almost everything since I left AK.

I love Beagles, they are affectionate and make great pets, but tend to be hardheads! A Vizla is more disiplined ,larger and tougher si it depends on what you are going to hunt.

Good for you!

Used to eat liver until my Dr sad QUIT!

Pond fish will eat anything tossed at them, it conditions them for easy catches.
