  1. I also picked up the cva  optima with the thumbhole stock Really like the way that feels and put the same scope on it. Ive always used pyrodex pellets and 245 grain aero tips . Anyone shoot this gun and have any luck with different powder. My father says to try white hot anyone use that? I will be shooting Sunday and see how they shoot.Thanks for all the input Gary

  2. It looks like the scumbags that broke into my house will get away with it for now. Good news is insurance check will be here this week so i'm gun shopping. I went to Bass Pro last night and all they push is savage axis or trophy hunter. Anyone shoot these ? I have a friend who shoots Ruger American and loves it was thinking about getting the Ruger in a .270 with a nikon scope Any thoughts  on these or something else. I didnt know I had a 500 dollar deductible so i have a little less than I hoped for to spend.

  3. they left all the jewelry and electronics. They actually stepped over a lap top and never touched it. they grabbed a watch and 2 prescriptions other than that all hunting stuff . Even took my grandsons red ryder bb gun you think i'm mad he was worse!My range finder is also gone they dropped my son's range finder outside so we got 1 back .Even took my quiver off the wall with arrows and rage broadheads.The stupidest thing was our bows were leaning against each other and they only took my sons.

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

     

  4. Short list stevens rifle model 200 with a Nikon pro staff 3x9 power scope . Cva optima pro magum muzzleloader camo with nickel barrel Nikon pro staff 3x9 power scope . Remington 870 12 gauge shotgun barrel has the choke tubes pump action on the side of the receiver it rusted where the scope mount was so it's easy to distinguish.Oneida eagle bow with soft cameo case . It's a person my son knows is what were going on he was with us and 700 friends on Facebook knew we were gone.they pushed my air conditioner in the window and climbed in.all evidence points to someone who was in my house before.thanks again Gary I do have pics but they're all with deer and turkeys and not in digital form I can come up with some if need be

  5. On August 5th my house was broken into while on vacation. So far the investigation is going nowhere and I'm losing hope on getting my things back. I live in the oswego fulton area so if anyone hears anyone selling guns in the area pm me please. It's likely kids but they only took hunting equipment including bows rifles shotguns and muzzleloader. Thanks,Gary

  6. I haven't had any luck with estrous scents in a long time. I used to have good luck with Tink's but that don't seem to work anymore for me. Anyone recommend a kind I could try?

  7. I went out Last Friday night at 3:00 not really expecting to see much. This stand was hunted all week without much being seen. At 4:00 a doe fawn came by and fed for 15 minutes and not long after she left this guy came up the same trail behind me, When I turned around he was less than 50 yards standing broadside looking away from me. I stood up got a steady rest  and shot in about 15 seconds from the time I saw him. Thought it was an easy shot until I realized the brush I shot through. Could find no hair or blood but as I was looking he jumped up about 50 yards from where I shot . It was getting dark so I went back to camp for help and lights . Just as I was figuring I had missed my buddy found a drop of blood which became a steady trail. We finally found him maybe 150 yards from where I shot.
