    Youth caliber decisions?

    A little late, but my girls all started out with lever action .357 mags. Very low recoil and very lightweight. 4 deer so far and all dropped where they stood. We hunt the wooded hills so 100yrds is max range. Hornady LeverEvolution work wonderfully but they've also dropped them with standard JHP.

    2 Navy boat crews seized by Iran?

    So back to my question- At what point do we say "no, you can't have my boat" ? We all know that Riverines don't make the cut.

    2 Navy boat crews seized by Iran?

    Per the Iranian videos, there was a fair amount of munitions on board. I'm just curious, how do two heavily armed USN Riverine boats get captured by IRGC modified fishing boats? Is there a limit to how big a boat we let them capture? Is there something in the rules of engagement that says you...

    Tapatalk app on my Phone keeps crashing

    Same. Try to enter any forum topic and it crashes. It started about a week ago on my 5s. I upgraded to a 6+ last night and it's crashing on it too. Tapatalk has been taking a lot of heat here recently... Actually, they've always taken heat, just more than normal recently.

    Well....

    Going out Friday and Saturday. I think this will be a record for me as far as getting out this early in the season.

    Facebook named in a third of divorce filings in 2011.

    I heard there's a new Social Media network coming out that combines the best of YouTube, Twitter, and Facebook. It's called YouTwitFace. I'll be sitting that one out too.

    Wyandotte home hit by 105mm artillery shell from OFATS.

    I've never been associated with cannons, so I asked Google, who graciously led me here: http://www.usarmymodels.com/ARTICLES/105mm%20Ordnance/2%20105mmAmmunition.html The chart shows both a practice round and an inert round. Maybe it was the shock of the moment, but I thought it was...

    Aliens Are Almost Definitely Out There, SETI Astronomers Tell Congress

    So, if he is able to prove either the presence or absence of life, so what? How does that knowledge benefit society as a whole? More importantly, why do I, American Taxpayer, have to fund this endeavor?

    Bear! One spotted in my area.

    Dag-nabit. I let myself get suckered into chasing rabbits... If you are going to carry with just a sling, think about going across your back, hanging from the off-shoulder, muzzle down. You can bring it to your shoulder fairly quickly. Another option would be to get a scabbard. Be warned...

    Bear! One spotted in my area.

    I consider Chuck Hawks a pretty good authority on a lot of matters. Here is his opinion on bears: http://www.chuckhawks.com/firearms_defense_bears.htm My opinion: If you are lucky, your encounter will start at 40 yards out, and if you are honest with yourself you will admit that you...

    Only YOU Can Protect Net Neutrality

    This is the same old argument we have whenever we compare costs models; do you peanut-butter it across everyone, or pile it on only those who will use it? Turnpikes- Why should those who don't use turnpikes pay for them with taxes. Tolls put the burden on only those who use them, including the...

    Who has considered or actually changed political parties over the past couple years?

    Still registered R, but I told them the 12 times they called not to call me anymore and they wouldn't get another dime until they got their house in order.

    Natural way to kill poison ivy?

    Weird thing about poison ivy/oak/sumac is it's not the Urushiol directly causing a rash, but your body's immune system attacking itself. And I can vouch for the reaction growing in severity with each exposure. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Urushiol-induced_contact_dermatitis At least 25% of...

    Natural way to kill poison ivy?

    Not exactly natural, but Round-up makes a special solution for poison ivy. If this is growing amongst plants you don't want to kill, I would suggest you soak the soil (or wait for a day-long rain) and pull them up by the roots. Wear gloves and wrap strong trash bags around your arms. When you...

    Gas ltrimmers ?

    I have a 25 year old Homelite 2-stroke that still runs great. Picked it up at a garage sale for $5 because they couldn't get it running. Finally had to replace the tank (my fault) and the fuel lines last year. I went to O-Reiley's and bought some off the spool. I bought the tank online from...

    "Bug Out" Vehicle?

    If money is no object, Check out the Local Motor's Rally Fighter. [Broken External Image] Something tells me that if money is no object for you, we won't be hearing about anyone getting one of these.
