  1. My sons marlin 30-30 with 170 grain Speer hot cors over some reloader 15 My ruger super redhawk 44 mag with 240 grain xtp’s over some 2400 And my wife’s weatherby camilla 7mm-08 with 145 grain hot cores over reloader 15
  2. Now that’s just silly, everyone knows that the gas stations that charge a dollar for 30 seconds of air use that special all weather air.
  3. Also a easy way to check for a draw is make sure every thing is off doors are shut etc. and pull the + battery cable off and put test light in line from cable to battery if there is even a slight flicker of light you have a draw .
  4. When you had the alternator tested did they turn on the lights, radio, heater fan, 4 ways etc. A alternator should be tested under a load and you should still see a reading of 13 volts plus with everything on.
  5. I like it, his face looks like Jeff Dunham’s puppet Walter . Your feathers are always great wooly..
  6. You might have lost prime . Should be a bleeder valve on the unit, looks like a brake bleeder valve. If I remember right it’s a 3/ 8 wrench might be wrong . Put the wrench on and get a rubber hose to fit on the bleeder and run hose into can. Open the valve like a half turn and turn on furnace wait till you have solid stream of fuel oil close bleeder. If you lost prime after this it should light..
  7. I have not recovered a xtp on any of the deer I have shot, but have seen guys that have and they posted photos of jacket separation. The xtp’s get the job done but there are better no doubt. Have read nothing but good things about A frames even on dangerous game out of revolvers. Before I moved up to the 44 I hunted with a 357 mag Blackhawk and loaded 180 grain rim rock hard cast gas check over 13.5 grains of 2400. They chronod at 1300 FPS . Only 100 FPS off the buffalo bore load with the same bullet, and I had outstanding performance on deer with that combo. i never should have moved away from the hard cast, but one has to tinker and experiment.
  8. I have not, I did some research on the 300 grainers and was reading about some guys not getting good performance on game with them. They were not opening up very well. I am going to do a bunch of testing this spring/ summer with some hard cast from 260 grains up to 300.
  9. Well there is a dispute between papist and lawdwaz about aging deer on the hoof in the field
  10. Right there with you, I also have not shot a deer in 3 years but it has been by choice. I let a 4 point go tonight, hope I don’t regret it later. My craving for venison is starting to out weigh me letting little ones go.
  11. Who cares about age, he’s big enough to shoot
  12. I hunt with a 44 SRH 9.5 barrel topped with a ultradot red dot ,decided to go with 240 grain xtp over 20 grains of 2400 this yr. wife hunts with a gp-100 357 mag also topped with a ultrdot red dot. Had her using 158 grain xtp over 13 grains of 2400. She will be using her new rifle this year. We have been working up some 158 grain large meplat Keith style bullets for her GP. I go back and forth with my bullets between hard cast and jacketed, starting to lean towards large meplat hard cast though.
  13. Very good question, I wonder if those with legal backgrounds could possibly answer.
  14. That’s funny right there...
  15. If you go high, you will need to go high enough so they won’t be able to stand on the racks of the atv and get the camera. So if you go at that height will you get a solid photo of them ? Do you know a welder ? He could weld you up a heavy duty box or weld the seams on a store bought one. I have a heavy duty one welded up just for such occasions, if you were close I would let you borrow it. It’s sad you have to deal with this..
  16. Jdubs and let em grow, hit the nail on the head . I started drinking lots of water and I can feel the difference in my body when I do not get my daily fill. Also started eating healthy and same when I have a snack, it makes me feel blah the next day..
  17. This was going to be the make or break season for me, I am intrigued to see how the rest of the season plays out. The whole amc original film thing that they will be doing idk, I hope their not flooding the zombie tv market with to much . I stoped watching fear the walking dead..
