That's fantastic. Congratulations. I've been applying for about ten years. I'll keep applying until i get a tag.

It's a shame when members who joined another site have to come back here and trash talk on this site . Since several members have left , members on this site with few posts have dared to come out and make posts without fear of retaliation . This site has improved with the loss of antagonistic members .
I agree. Unfortunately, it still suffers because of the remaining antagonistic members.

Virg, the same argument can be applied to many who agree with the dems too, dont you think? Truth be told, I didnt find my guys VH and Lefty , for example to be overly tolerant to an opposing POV.
Of course.

What are you doing here Virg, you have not made a post about hunting in months, another trolling closet Democrat!
How about taking your own advice from your quote below and leave us clowns alone.

"i'll go back to ignoring you clowns- i forgot how sensitive and easily triggered you can be."
I'll try.

This is where these threads become entertaining- when someone expects Grouse to accept that intelligent and informed people are capable of having opinions different from his own.

Was there a cost, or do you make a few bucks on this?

Sorry to interrupt your pathetic echo chamber, Grouse. I didn't make it up- it's straight out of the dictionary.

: to concoct especially with intent to deceive : fabricate, invent.
Robby, i think you may have missed the point. The definition above is for 'trump'. Either way, both are funny- and appropriate.

You can get a haircut at Walmart?
i was up at the Cabelas in Auburn this weekend. The ammo selection was definitely disappointing. The purchase process was quick and painless- that's not to say that i like it.

Serious question, how do the Trump lovers feel about his big announcement yesterday? You guys buying those trading cards?
-
interesting that they used the term 'automatic' instead of semi-auto back then.

I wonder if this silly bickering is partly what drives some people away.

Holy geez, the nonsense some of you guys come up with to keep yourselves occupied.

We can go crazy for crazy on either side and be here all day
Agreed. And, isn't that exactly the problem? Both parties are just trying to out-crazy each other- nominating extremists within their party. The result is this awful hyper-polarized state that the country is in. At some point, moderates need to become electable again.

Then again, there is reason to believe the Democrats are capable of election fraud and may very well steal the election. They can easily cover all fraud up too, since they control every agency that would have to look into it. Their corruption is the worst it has ever been. But that's another reason why many are planning to vote against them.
Heads we win, tails they cheated. The never-ending grievance machine grinds on. Good plan to prepare the excuse and conspiracy in advance.
Probably unnecessary. I think Zeldin will win.

if i dont clean mine anything after 3 shots starts to drop. Shoot that first and second one at 200 then take a 100 yard shots after and see what it looks like. I use the same as you 2 pellets of 777.
Haven't tried that. i did read about a lubricant that's supposed to be excellent.
Oops- that was meant for the post from Ranger Clay.

Good idea. Will try that.

If you want to shoot 200 yards , yes . Use 3 pellets . Thats what all the guys I know use that want to shoot 200+ yards . And they do very well with it . The longest shot I've made with my Encore was 145 yards . I aimed at the top third of the chest and hit dead center on the deer . Maybe a 4 inch drop . But the bullet was on its way down . I use 2 pellets .
OK, thanks. I'll give that a try. I can't imagine it'll effect zero at 100?

Not crud ring related if you ask me , natural bullet drop with two pellets
Do you suggest using three?

Just now, SportsmanNH said:
I dont believe your issue is crud at all . Everyone I know who shoots out to 200 yards are using 3 pyrodex or triple 7 pellets . I think sbuff's calculation of 16 inches low is right on the money or actually a little on the short side. I would of expected to a bit more than 16 inches low .
So, are you suggesting 3 pellets? For all distances?

Maybe I figured it wrong but I ran a 250 gr shock wave with a BC of .250 at around 1700fps dead on at 100 yards with a .452 diameter you should be -16+bullet drop out to 200 yards
T7 will give you a crud ring usually after shock number two
So, do you think my issue is crud? I can't come up with any other ideas. When i shot at 200, i used the reticle on the scope that was designed for 200. The first two shots were good. After that, huge dropoff.
I appreciate G-Man's advice about switching to powder. But, if i knew that the issue is purely due to the barrel getting cruddy after a few shots, even with a moist patch between shots, i'll just make sure that the gun is perfectly clean before heading into the woods for this season. Then, i'll probably make the switch to loose powder going forward.
