Hello Gentlemen, I bought a used muzzleloader about 3 years ago. 1 yr old at the time. Topped with a Nikon 3x9 prostaff scope. I have shot it many times both in practicing and hunting. The crosshairs are suddenly "fuzzy". It still is accurate but there is something wrong and it will get...

Has anyone bought and tried the new Thompson Center Strike. It appears to be their answer to the cva acura. Nice looking with the nitride finish and interesting features. I wish there was a really good muzzleloading magazine that would invite industry pros to document the features and accuracy...

I have used my turkey gun thru the years and would win a match or two. Now here it takes a custom gun to be "in there". I bought one and am learning. Practicing-learning the other day I brush cleaned the barrel and choke after 4 shots and the pattern tightened very noticeably. Does anyone have...

Whats in your deepfreeze boys? That you can talk about! I have whitetail venison, elk, cottontail rabbits, squirrels, Eastern wild turkey, Alaskan Salmon, Halibut, catfish, and bluegill. I enjoy eating and cooking it all as well as giving it to friends. I also recently canned some deermeat. It...

I have been laying back. Time to stir the pot! My team won today by the skin of their teeth yet I hope to see the cowgirls go down! Am I evil? I remain John The Bastard

When I was young we all did it for the food. Now it is a pastime to get by while waiting for going west and deer hunting. I do love an annual squirrel and biscuits and gravy breakfast with fried green apples! Real men hunt them with rifles with open sights.....old men, girls, little boys and...

Any predictions? Its the 3rd preseason game so maybe the first half will be a pretty good game. I am a Vikings fan but harbor more hope than any predictions. I will say this much.......The Cowboys will not win the super bowl! J_T_B

LAST EDITED ON Apr-13-15 AT 08:37AM (MST) by Founder (admin)[p]My son came for the weekend to turkey hunt. He shot this gobbler after I called it in. We first heard the bird at 6:00 a.m. and it too us until 8:35 to finally make a move on the bird to allow us a shot. The terrain is very rugged...

Hello Boys! Things are more than dull here lately so I will post a photo of the Jake I killed this morning. Very nice hunt but The gobblers would not come to my calling. I passed this bird once but his second pass back by me was more than I could take. Technically he is not a pisscutter! I am...

On this site we noted and had a little fun with April 1st. I think many of us would like to say "Happy Easter" and enjoy the day. If you are not that all that religious then just think some good thoughts and find a way to cause someone else to have some good thoughts or feelings. Start something...

This time of year I resupply my firewood. This whiteoak did not have a straight sawlog so I am converting it to split wood to make BTU's. Turkey season begins a week from Monday.....Can't wait! J_T_B

The real reason for Obama's desire to ban a particular ammo is the fact that the green tipped ammo is that it is the most, by far, affordable ammo for the most popular (numbers wise) high powered rifle. J_T_B note: I do not own a black rifle but most sportsmen that I know does.

Today we will have our annual church shooting match at the annex. I will spend the afternoon shooting, bullshitting and drinking beer. I will be doing my charity thing and maybe win some nice meat!I'm a good good ol boy! J_T_B

I have no preference who wins.........I would like the final score after the final overtime to be 0 to 0! I will root for the defense. I hope to be entertained by the half time show and the commercials.

How about some thoughts and comments on effective distances to shoot deer and elk with muzzleloaders. Especially with open sights.Here in Illinois we use scopes but can't in many states.Open sights are a challenge for us senior hunters. I am talking both primitive and modern using black powder...

God I'm glad the season is here. I am a little happy with the Vikes performance and have high hopes. I am watching the 49r's and Dallas and am a bit conflicted. I would like to see both teams loose. I think I am a bit evil. I am enjoying Troy and Jay as they seem to thoroughly enjoy each others...

Its a day to rest and the dove opener is tomorrow. I just returned from shopping for nonperishables for a cow hunt with cowtag and blacksheep. We will camp in unit 61 and harvest some meat and enjoy Muzzy season and visit with some locals. The Bulls will be bugling and we will enjoy the sights...

Hello Gentle men, Elk Asassin and others are doing their best to keep the site alive and fun! I would like to add to the mix! I was born poor in Southern Illinois and grew up loving to hunt for food and sport. As a teen ager I sacrificed and worked enough to buy a brand new 16 gauge browning...

Help me if you can. My sweetcorn patch is almost ready and Coyotes are beginning to rob me. Lots of tracks in the mud after the rain They pull a stalk and drag it out into the open and eat the corn. They are not as harmful as Raccoons as they eat the whole ear but they are very difficult to...

Thanks for the shoutout! It reminds me of when I was a little boy and I wet my pants wearing dark long pants. It was a warm feeling. This time from inside me. Thanks. I have not lost my faith. I have logged on for several or many years. I remember when there was a character named Bobcat who...

Gentlemen. I am a Vikings fan who has an afininity to the Broncos as I love to hunt in Colorado in the fall. My cousins and I go there most falls and our years begin and end with the trip. Peyton Manning epitomizes what most of us admire in an athlete. I am disappointed in the game so far...
