I think I have to try and find some primers locally. Wholly shit! $40 for a $10 item. $30 hazmat fee. Looks like the Winchesters have been discontinued?

There are just some things I'm not comfortable having shipped. A firearm of any sort is at the very top of that list. I've had two knives not show up in the last year or so, one was taken right from the mailbox and the other off the porch. So a gun has me nervous. I hope you feel better soon. I went through another site. muzzleloaders.com didn't have what I wanted in my price range in stock. I'll end up checking everything over as well. One of the big draws to the CVA was no tools to remove the breech plug, just twist it. I'll site at 50 and 100. I'm not seeing past that anywhere I'll be using this.

I'll probably shoot some video on a bunch of stuff. Being a beginner maybe it will help someone else out by seeing how I did it. Who knows? I'll probably have a full thread going elsewhere about this as well. The man who owns the land I hunt in the ADK's has two he's offered to let my wife and I borrow. But just while we're there. I wanted something for our annual trip to Indian Lake with a little more reach then just my bow. If you'd be interested shoot me a PM and I'll give you the link where I got everything from at a good price. I keep looking around at primers and read a bunch, and I think those Winchesters will be fine for me. Down the road I do plan to try some CCI's if and when I can get them. I read a lot about those White Hot pellets, and it was pretty split as to how good they were, but read a lot of good things about the triple 7's so went that route. I do have to go get the ML tag now, I never bother because I never hunted with one.

So I caved and ordered a CVA Wolf with the Konus scope. The all black version, not the stainless. I also grabbed a kit with the breech brushes, a bullet starter, some cleaning items, and a quick loader. I'll be trying out Power Belt 245gr bullets and 50gr Hodgdon Triple 7 powder pellets. I still have to order some 209 primers, and will most likely go with Winchester 777's. I don't like ordering things like this online, but I was able to save some cash this way even with the hazmat fees for the powder pellets. I'm pretty nervous about having a firearm shipped to me to be totally honest, I have this odd twisted feeling in my guts.

I'm a bit confused here. In the image there's what looks like a compass at the bottom which marks east and being up, but the marking you put on the image are the opposite and has east pointing down. Which way is actually east?

BUY AMERICAN and boost the economy of the country to claim to love so much! You really are a single mined buffoon at times aren't you? I think you should get out more, maybe try some good old east coastal hyking. Now, I'm going fishing.

It also sanctions missiles if I read correctly. Again, I ask what happened to buy American? One would presume then that the best ammo is made in Russia? If a Democrat farts in the wind it's a violation of the Second Amendment. This has nothing to do with China, it's about Russia so why not stay on point? Funny how most people can't do that anymore. It's also not a ban, it's a restriction/sanction on a country that does horrible things to innocent people. I could flip the coin like so many others do here, and say- so by being against this you must me OK with innocent people being killed by chemical warfare. It wasn't that long ago, maybe a few weeks, that people were up in arms that Russian ships were to close to waters they weren't supposed to be on/in. My how things change, when a Russian ship gets a little to close for comfort people blow a gasket- Russia bad. Tell those same people they might not be able to get commie ammo and they still blow a gasket- Russian weapons good. Like I said, isn't not standing your ground a "libtard" thing to do? Nothing wrong with back-peddling, we have all done it. It's all good until your foot slips and you faceplant. Again, I said it's a mute point to bring up anything logical here. You can't hammer a wooden nail into a rock. Now if you'll pardon my leave, I'm off to go do some fishing. You know, one of those topics that this place was made to discuss.

So let me get this straight- A lot of people are always preaching about buy American and about hate for communism are upset that you can't buy commie ammo? WTF! Something that was in place, then removed, and now set back in place to try and get Russia to stop using chemical warfare is bad? It sure reads like this is an import issue, and it reads there may be denials for import permits. As long as Russia stops killing innocent people there should be no problem. I sort of think not backing countries who kill innocent people with chemicals is a good thing. A whole lot of people were furious when it was found out that Russia had supplied Iran with chemical bombs that killed women and children not so long ago. There's going to be a few who are going to argue, but in reality it will be a mute point. All you need to do is pay attention to the commie haters. It's pretty funny when the die hard right are talking communism this, socialism that, buy American everything, and have a problem with this. Running an American Flag and using commie gear? Somehow that seems like a huge contradiction. Seems pretty Democratic and liberal to me. But hey, keep trucking along preaching buy American..........

Who cares what some Hollywood influencer says! Seriously! As @ApexerER stated, just let people make their own damn decisions. People need to stop with this bullshit of calling people leftists liberals ( and far worse ) that decide to get the vaccine, and stop insulting and cutting them down. It makes you look look like a selfish asshole that feels the only way of thinking is their way of thinking. Start minding your own MF'n business and let people do what they want to do and make their own decisions. No one, I MEAN NO ONE should belittle anyone who feels taking a precaution in life is what's best for them. I'm over too many of the people on this site the past year and a half. Too many think they are the be all end all and if you don't agree with them you are this or that. Grow the f%$k up! You have no right to tell me or anyone else how to live life.

So we now know you use your left hand for certain "things". I don't think anyone needed to know that.

That's funny. I read that most of the people not getting the vaccine or wearing masks are Extreme Right fanatics who are using this as a way to give a middle finger to the whole thing as a stand against our Tyrannical Government.

To be in the woods as much as possible again this year.

Out of defiance against the machine I'm going to refuse to wear my camo masks during the hunting season this year! Damn the man!

I read on a site that quoted another site, which was quoting yet another three sites, that quoted the original site that Cuomo is not stepping down and going to become a member here because of all the publicity he's getting and wants to thank us all personally.

I was asking a question to a reply questioning a quoted reply. I'm aware how it's transmitted.

Hey thanks! Now I know what to get a whole lot of people for Christmas this year! Plastic bags and some zip ties!

EXACTLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! So you got where I was going with that. You got yourself a blue star.

Weren't those dry arid states way up there on covid cases at one point? Some places the likes of AZ, TX, CO, etc? I'm pretty sure on that, but I don't feel like looking the up data because, well, I just don't feel like it. I'm too busy cuddling with my new hunting coat to bother.

Huntingny.com We have the left wing nut jobs, the right wing nut jobs, we have music videos, WWE and MMA updates, commercials ( those SPAM threads ), drama, comedy, a cooking show, a reversed AA thread, and just about everything else that makes the news. Now that I think about it, it's the old MTV and the new MTV combined.

That didn't stop Joey from running.

Biden's been saying he should step down from the start of this whole thing. I'm hoping Cuomo either resigns or they boot him out. He'll most likely make them take the Impeachment route to get rid of him, which is slower then a snowball trying to roll uphill in a rain storm.

Congrats.

So you joined the WWE? I would think with a name like that you be debuting at Summerslam?
