    Yes there is, too much lube will cause dents in the case shoulder. I use Hornady Unique case lube, it is a paste that I put on with my finger and spread on the cases very thinly.

    I still use a lube pad. those cases can still be saved I would just load them at the low end with the cheapest bullets I have and fire form them back into shape. I have a 6mm rem br and it's really hard to find bass so I have to save all the brass I can. Back in the old days when I shot IHMSA and shot a 7mm TCU one of the best ways to make brass was to take 223 or 222mag brass and fire form them. 222mag brass was better it's longer then 223 brass and would size or fire form to size where 223 brass would always be short.

  2. If I remember correctly, when the back tags were paper. The print was permanent ink. today most of the ink is water based. Also if you lost your back tag you would have to go to a DEC office to get a new one and they would write your number in black marker on a blank tag. if you lost carcass tags you were shit out of luck.

    I was wondering about the Seneca river, but I read about some pollution issues in the fish there in certain areas. Any truth to that?

    Where on the Seneca River are you finding the catfishing the best?

    I never fished it for cats the guys where I worked in Geneva ( retired the end of January) fish it all the time over by Cross lake

  4. I started having ammo sent to my sons house a few years ago when I couldn't find slugs. I found the slugs I needed online so I had them sent there and he brought them up for me. so now I just have stuff sent to him or I buy stuff when I'm traveling out of state. there's are no check points to enter the state.

  5. I had a good season killed two does. the place I hunt now has lots of does from years of shooting only bucks and letting does walk. so, there are lots of small bucks but not many good bucks. We are now trying to manage it better the downside. the land is in 9P so it's hard to get doe permits we are working with the landowner on getting DMAPS for the next few years.

  6. Has anyone fished the Canandaigua Outlet off Fisher Road just west of rt14 looks like it could be good for smallmouths and pike. I took a look off the Fisher rd. bridge the water looks like it ranges between 2 to 4 feet with grass and a hard bottom. Just want to know if it’s worth my time to give it a try. I know it’s stock with trout near Phelps.

  7. The DEC has released the 2022/23 Deer Harvest Report. The report is on the DEC web site. 231961 deer were harvested in 2022/23 season and 64% of the bucks taken were 2.5 years old or older. Remember the DEC uses statistical modeling for their report. The modeling has an accurate rate of +/- 3% or better.

  8. I would check Runnings and see what they have. I always have a primary powder and a backup. Like my 444 I use IMR4198 and H4198 is my backup. My 44mag H110 and backup is W296. Primers 444 Rem9 1/2s backup CCI200 or Fed 210s. I never run out of powder or primers.
