Lottery = Doe hunting.

You can buy a license to hunt bucks anytime before the season starts in this state. The lottery is for an "antlerless deer tag" which you can use to shoot any deer in that area. The buck licenses are now pretty much universal, except for the 300 zones.

Back to the original question. If you want to learn how to reload, start with something like the .223 Rifle. The reasoning behind this is that all of the components are reasonably cheap, and if you are playing with a rifle, absent some really poor decisions (like using a pistol powder to make super ...

I think what rankles is that it used to be a state where a boy with a dog could walk up to a farmers door and walk awa with permission to hunt his back 40, come away with a coupld birds and have a good day. Now he has to have the cash to outbid the guy who flew in that morning in his leer. It is no...

If you want sticker shock, look at a Holland and Holland Royal grade in .577 NE or .600 NE. In New York a few years ago I struck up a conversation with their Gun manager as I was looking for a .470 NE at the time. I thought maybe a used engilsh gun was in my reach (I found out it was, but not a nitr...

I've got a Barrett 82. Its not a sniper rifle. I can hit 55 gallon barrels at 1000 with it (well, when I do my part- a HSLD operator I'm not...). The thing is fun to shoot, but I think a true match bolt gun is much more the idea for true 1000 yard competition. I have a buddy who owned a AR50. Didn't...

Really nice!

Who's the engraver?

I think you miss the point. Can you shoot a .30-06? Would you rather shoot a 6.5 mm? Maybe, but you probably could shoot a .30-06 if it was that or nothing. I was thinking that there are alternative ways of dealing with the recoil than automatically assuming that "I can't shoot this thing...&qu...

How many rounds did you fire in each weight?

I've seen some pretty large swings that are due to insufficient sample size as far as the velocity issues.

More important is how did they group?

SASS Single action shooting society... AKA cowboy action shooting.

My experience is that while the ruger revolvers are more "clunky" and not as smooth as a S&W, they are able to take more abuse than a Smith. I've shot a smith and a colt loose, I've not managed that with a Ruger. They certainly lack the "Panache" of a S&W, but are really ...

Obviously you didn't read it.

Most of the problem is not him, it's gun fit and how he shoots it.

If he can hunt with a slug shotgun, he can handle a .30-06.

Look up the recoil energy. The slug gun has more recoil energy.

I am a FP physician. It is tabulated and they see the progress note so they can verify if you completed the required elements for that level of billing. Whether the particular provider actually tabulates what questions they ask or just document that "safety screening performed" is an indiv...

I had originally written a rather tongue in cheek reply to this topic. It was one of my big arguments with the AMA and caused me to stop being a member. I would be worried about what the info is used for. HIPAA is not about protecting your information, its about who is allowed to see it. In particul...

If you are "keeping it real" then admit that those were emptying the mag and that was all that hit the paper with an AK....

I assume empty brass only

Just under 5 pounds for 40
just under 4 1/2 pounds for 9 mm

Easy is to get the one rate postal box and throw them in there to ship. (weight is immaterial if you get it in the box...)
