      Dad's '06, brass deformed after firing

      My dad's one and only rifle, a Rem 725 purchased in 1958 is now in my care. Ran it to the range today and noticed about 50% of the brass had a flattened, deformed edge on one side of the neck. I used Rem Core-lokt and Privi ammo. Don't think it's a major safety concern as none of the rounds...

      Hunting near state road

      Ok... haven't seen a buck this season. Driving home this morning and came off of the St. Joseph Valley Parkway (US 31/20 Bypass) at a County Road. This guy below was bedded down in the circular interchange, which offers quite a lot of cover. Saw two does in there a couple nights ago. Caught...

      Special Kind of Stupid, Vol. 2

      I'll just leave this here. Bolt-action rifles Down Under are going to be confiscated because they "look to assaulty". The words & warning of Kirk Lazarus comes to mind. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpRTJ8hmCQY

      Puppeteer Pelosi has her wrinkly paw up our own Andre Carson's backside

      "Psst...psst... tell em you're a Muslim! Tell em you're a Muslim!" Lifelong career older-than-dirt politicians need to put out to pasture. D and R included. Whitewashed tombs filled with dead men's bones happily passing on their corrupt craft to the upcoming generation. No one cares if Carson...

      Remington 725 barrel replacement

      Looking to rebarrel my father's Rem 725; it was his first (and only) rifle, purchased new after he immigrated to the US back in the mid-50's. Long story short, the rifle was in a nasty flood and the bore rusted and pitted. I cleaned it up and it'd shoot 3-4 moa while the bore was filled with a...

      WTS: Gall's Athletic Oxford, size 14M $.01 ONE-CENT plus shipping

      Got the wrong size in a pair of Gall's Athletic Oxfords in 14M (needed 15M and picked up a second pair). IF you need a decent pair of work shoes or kick around shoes and these fit the bill, you can have this brand new pair if you cover shipping. Never been worn other than one lap around the...

      This weekend's big temp drop... what's your plan?

      Looking at the cold front, rising barometer, 24mph winds and rain/snow precip coming into northern IN this weekend, how would you hunt it if your two locations were 1) over a cut bean field and 2) inside a 50-yd wide wooded travel corridor. I'm thinking there could be good activity over the cut...

      The Joe Biden Defense

      Not sure what MA allows for defense of one's home but here in IN, hypothetically, if someone breaks the glass in/alongside your front door after you repeatedly tell them to go away, I'd imagine the Castle Doctrine would exonerate the homeowner. Chicopee shooting leaves 15-year-old dead...

      Vandalism & Defense of Property

      Not sure if this should be posted in this section but with a frame of thought towards 'what should you do'... the message below was posted by a friend on fb today (lives in Florida). My thought, depending on the number of youthful hoodlums, would be to immediately call 911 then hit the yutes...

      Lee Classic Loader-- worth it?

      Picked up a '76 Marlin 1894 .44 mag for deer this year. Got a buck & a doe so I'll be keeping it :): Also traded for a '76 Super Blackhawk in the same caliber. Thinking about getting into reloading; have zero experience in it. Saw the Lee Classic hand-loader kits and am wondering if that's a...

      Dr. Terry Jones charged with... felony?

      As much as I detest the actions of Terry Jones, I must defend his right to do it. The town of Mulberry and the county of Polk have abridged and infringed upon Mr. Jones' constitutionally protected civil right to free expression simply because they don't agree with him. To arrest him on...
