    Kentucky hog hunting?

I have not seen one since no matter where I have been hiking or hunting throughout the Red River Gorge area, Daniel Boone Forest, Land Between the Lakes, or anywhere.

    double ball??

So if you have experience hunting this way, please share. I am going elk hunting in the...

    Cochran Rifle?

    Thanks. I didnt think that Cochran made too many guns since i have never heard of any around. I did read in the Foxfire books that he did make some but never signed them. This just added to my curiosity since on this one I cannot find a single name anywhere, not under the barrel or anywhere...

    Fixing a poor job

    I contacted the builder of mine and he was great. He offered a full refund and i shipped it back. Now its just a matter of waiting to see how long it takes. I think, from how accommodating he was, that though I didn't like what I got, he is a very good guy to work with. I should give hte benefit...

    Fixing a poor job

    Actually, it wasn't a grand, it was a little over 1100.oo because the barrel was finished. I have sent an email to hte maker listing the problems and asking to return for a refund. We'll see what happens. I would have prefered to buy a used one for the same price at this point. Got any .20...

    easiest to clean powder

    OK, OK, I give up! i will jsut shut my mouth and keep using goex. Maybe I just got a little lazy. I wont deny that. But I will be da**ed if I ever resort to using anything smokeless. Might as well sell out and get a friggen in-line when that happens.
