Tactical 870 and 2 22 rifles
MACHINIST replied to MACHINIST's topic in Hunting Items For Sale and Trade
870 back up for sale,buyer backed out -
ASAP.We all know it may take a bit to get to depending on where he dropped.The main thing is cooling the meat and getting the fat off.I've ate bear plenty of times,one bear we didn't recover till the next morning(it was in the 40's that night) and it was still great.I can honestly say that the bear meat I have had I liked better than deer,deer to me has a more gamey flavor bear is a bit more chewy but when prepared right,both after the animal is killed and for the table bear is very good.One more thing we do is let the meat sit on a fridge or a iced down cooler for a few days before vacuum packing or wrapping in freezer paper and then packing it away in the freezer

What Rangefinder to buy?
MACHINIST replied to BizCT's topic in Hunting Gear Reviews and Gear Discussions
This is what I have used for the last 2-3 years and love it http://www.cabelas.com/product/Hunting/Optics/Rangefinders|/pc/104791680/c/104752080/sc/104525280/Bushnell174-Yardage-Pro174-Scout-1000-ARC-Laser-Rangefinder/721130.uts?destination=%2Fcatalog%2Fbrowse%2Frangefinders%2Fbushnell%2F_%2FN-1100062%2B1000002937%2FNe-1000002937%2FNs-CATEGORY_SEQ_104525280%3FWTz_l%3DSBC%253BMMcat104791680%253Bcat104752080%26WTz_st%3DGuidedNav%26WTz_stype%3DGNU&WTz_l=SBC%3BMMcat104791680%3Bcat104752080%3Bcat104525280 My friends use these and they like theirs also http://www.cabelas.com/product/Hunting/Optics/Rangefinders|/pc/104791680/c/104752080/sc/104525280/Leupold174-RX600i-Rangefinder/1360955.uts?destination=%2Fcatalog%2Fbrowse%2Frangefinders%2Fleupold%2F_%2FN-1100062%2B1000003881%2FNe-1000003881%2FNs-CATEGORY_SEQ_104525280%3FWTz_l%3DSBC%253BMMcat104791680%253Bcat104752080%26WTz_st%3DGuidedNav%26WTz_stype%3DGNU&WTz_l=SBC%3BMMcat104791680%3Bcat104752080%3Bcat104525280 One thing I do notice with the 2 units.If I range something at 25 yards theirs will read 31-32 yards its always a 6 yard difference.I actually tape checked mine and its dead on.I am not sure if they have to get their RF adjusted or what.I know they shoot as good as I do because they are sighted in for what their RF says. -
FInnwolf are to much $$$ for me.I have a friend that has a model 88 308 I am going to see if I can borrow to shoot to see how I like it.I just bought a Model 100 in 308 so the 88 would make a great pair.
-
Thanks ants,maybe I should look at the Winny 88 more!!HA
-
get em bud!!!!
-
I am looking at getting one,I want a 308 and a pistol grip and just want to know what you guys think about them.I also wouldn't rule out a Winchester 88 either.I just want a HP rifle caliber in a lever.

Counting down the longest 3 weeks of the year. T-20 days baby
MACHINIST replied to NYbuck50's topic in Bow Hunting
One more stand to move about 150 yards.Then I am ready to slay!! September 27th cant come soon enough -
my biggest buck had 12 inches of broadhead tipped arrow in its tenderloin.I am pretty sure it was a rage broadhead.......that ought to get some flames started!!!LOL
-
Thats what I am thinking also,she gets around just fine and has 2 fawns with her.If it happened last year I would imagine she wouldnt have fawns or would have died trying to mother them with a wound that bad.
-
I don't think so...its clearly from a Sasquatch.Way to big to be chupacabra and our mountain lions here are a little stupid so I don't think they could kill a deer.
-
Yea I am talking about the chunk out of her back
-
-
I have quite a few videos of her,she also has 2 fawn running with her.

Anyone every find pot plants well out in the woods
MACHINIST replied to HectorBuckBuster's topic in General Chit Chat
What did they tell you to do? -
We killed one on a friends farm like that during a deer drive.Would have made a nice mount if it didn't have 3 12 gauge slug holes in it

Bow or gun it doesn't matter to me,its the time in the woods.Sure would I have more bucks on the wall if I had a gun during bow season.But I wouldn't have ONE on the wall except for last years if I were a bow only guy.With that being said I applaud your decision and hope you have a great season bow hunting,but if it comes down to it don't be beating yourself up any if you reach for the Ol' bangstick.Deep down we are"hunters" doesn't matter what implament we use.Good luck bud!!!
