    Gun cleaning

    in Guns and Rifles and Discussions

    Posted

    Your method has been used successfully by many for years.  You might, however, find a newer solvent that works better on copper than Hoppe's.

     

    For the past few years I have been using any of a number of brands of foaming bore cleaner.  I just fill the bore with foam and leave it for the time recommended by the manufacturer...turning the gun over about half way through.  Then, after swabbing the foam out, I clean as you do, using a pull chain or rod and a solvent made for the type of ammo I'm using.  I like to finish up with a light coating of KLENSOIL (sp?) in the bore.

    Good article on deer vision

    I think you are right:  Deer see movement....be still or move slowly and you can beat their eyes.  In my experience, deer use their eyes to confirm what their other senses have told them.  I can recall numerous times where a deer had smelled me and then stood stark still until I was forced to move.....and then departed with a snort!  I, too, really like orange camo.

    Names of cuts?

    talk this terminology over with your processor BEFORE your deer is done.  Then you will know exactly what you will be getting.  Different processors (hunters,too) use different terms.  You need to know what your processor means when he says "Chops"..."Steaks"...etc.

    We New Yorkers have been getting hosed with gas prices for years.   For most people, gas is a necessity, not a luxury.   Yet our "leaders see fit to tax it so high.  What's the solution?  Dunno....We can't all move out of state.  As long as we keep electing people like Cuomo, nothing will change!

    The only good thing I can say about multi-flora rose is that it protects rabbits from coyotes and hawks, even foxes to a lesser extent.  We hunt some rose thickets that harbor a lot of rabbits.  In them we see weasel, martin and fisher tracks...but no coyote tracks...and few fox (because of the large coyote population).  So, we have no need to whack foxes, coyotes or hawks to protect our rabbits....the roses provide ideal protection.

    While the .410 is capable of killing both turkeys and pheasants, it can be difficult to find a gun/choke/ammo combination to do so.  A better choice would be to look for a Remington 1100 semi-auto in 20 ga.

    WOW!!! is right:   There is so much wrong about this.....Women are NOT defenseless objects to be used by rapists.    They have a right to fight back that includes the right to shoot their attacker.   Police "do their job" after the fact...seldom, if ever, do they  "protect" the victims of criminal activity.   This poster defines the Brady Campaign as the most perverted anti-gun group going!
