Why not just go with a 22 hollow point . It's the same diameter ( .224 ) as a 223 . Just less speed and a lot less noise .

I wouldn't pay $1000 for any Remington !

In the wrong hands , it is a terrible cartridge !

Congrats ! It took me 5 kids to figure out what was causing them ......

I am finding this story hard to believe ...... A lensatic compass should work anywhere unless you are in a steel building . The neck isn't 4 feet from the lungs / heart ( kill zone ) . If you hit the deer in the neck and hit 4 feet from where you aimed , you must have been aiming at the deer's butt ! Expert marksman ??? Must have been hunting in the Twilight Zone . Just my opinion .

Welcome to Hunting NY !

Welcome to Hunting NY ........

I am going to wait a few days before pulling my cameras to see what has survived the hunting season .

You got it nyslowhand . I put up stands alone myself and that is pretty much how I do it . I make sure the ladder brace is attached also so the ladder doesn't bow when climbing up to secure the seat platform . It's a bit scarey to climb up without using the lashing ropes so I don't do that anymore as it is really an unsafe practice .

That's okay . Red Fox has been dead for several years !

I believe Bubba is referring to "NY Bowhunters Association" . That is a group / organization that fought to keep Crossbows out of hunting and felt that only long bows , recurves and compounds should be allowed to hunt with . And then it was a matter of not wanting the Youth Hunt during the Bow Season . I don't belong the the NY Bowhunters Assoc as I don't agree with all of their thinking . ( note : I am guessing that where Bubba is coming from )

There are some bow hunters that feel the way the writer stated but to include all is BS . Plus the jerk wants to divide the hunting community by alienating bowhunters with the cross-bow , Ml and gun hunters . The guy has to be too stupid to not know that many of us hunt with 2 , 3 or all of the implements !

I don't like the way the jaws are tightened by racheting the cables to the bottom section of the ladder . The way the support bar is attached looks suspect . Let us know how well it works for you . https://x-stand.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/08/ONYX_Manual.pdf

Karl Gundel from Tivoli wrote to the NYOD knocking Bow Hunters as being selfish , blah , blah blah . He pretty much grouped all bow hunters as being selfish and wanting the woods to themselves . This guy stated that rifle , muzzleloader and cross-bow hunters need to form an alliance against bowhunters ! Nothing like wanting to divide the hunting community ! I hunt bow , gun and ML and take offense to this dip-wads letter !

That wouldn't have been a big problem for me . I am only about 1 mile from the Ontario Gun Club . I did forget my full length ramrod on the last trip . That's why I used my adapters ........and shot them .

If I use my 2-man ground blind I take a TC fiberglass ramrod along with me . Apparently no one else has had any type of mishap / brain fart at the range or just don't want to admit it .

Evercalm. goes for about $19.95 at DICKs and looks like a deodorant case . I have never had any luck with it but that's just me .

The only thing I didn't care about the interview was Eva using the term "Harvesting" .

I have a .380 LCP and don't particularly care for it . It is pretty tiny . I put a Crimson Talon lazer on it . It holds 6 in the magazine and 1 in the chamber . I should have gotten a 9 mm or 40 cal as the ammo for both is less expensive than the 380 ammo .

This may be long and boring for many of you but ...... here goes . I took my ML to the range a few weeks ago . The 1st 3 shot were great at 60 yards and then I had 2 misses . My ML is a NEF Huntsman 50 cal . The ramrod is collapsible from 23" to 15 3/4" . To use the ramrod you turn the end counter clockwise , extend it and keep turning the same direction until it locks . To put it back in the ML , you do everything in reverse . The ramrod is 15 3/4" collapsed so I made a 7 1/4" extension with a wooden dowel and then with a fat arrow shaft which I put a brass shell casing on each end . I could then push a sabot in the barrel , push it in with the dowel and finish pushing with the un-extended ramrod and avoid all the unscrewing etc .. After I fired the 4th shot and missed , I let the barrel cool and then attempted to reload . I couldn't find the dowel so I used my backup . Fired again and it looked like another miss . Walked down to the target and noticed my wooden dowel laying on the ground broken . What the heck ! Note to self : after ramming the sabot down the barrel , remove the ramrod and tip the barrel to remove the 7 1/4" extension !

Been there , done that !

You young Whipper Snapper ! If I could lift my foot , i'd boot you in the ass !

The only thing I miss on the TRACE cams is the Temperature ........

The TRACE cameras work fine for me and you cannot beat the price of $40 .

Happy Birthday TurkeyFeathers !
