Good on ya for making a rifle shootable again.

I think that there should be at least a five year requirement of hunting that a person must complete before becoming eligible to be on boards to make or alter hunting regulations.

About ten or twelve years ago I was going up to Orofino Idaho to help with long range shooting instruction. I was on the road that goes north through Ely Nevada about five miles out of town. Nothing much there and looked somewhat like your camping area. I had decided to camp out instead of...

Well the OP said early on he wanted to make it structurally sound and a shooter again. I guess he did whether anybody liked it or not. His gun he can do what works for him.

Boy, I'll bet that hit rang like a bell waking some folks up.

Shoot. I like 7 yards, that's just across the room which is what I want. Longer ranges are for target shooters which I'm not anymore with a hand gun.

I have bought a half dozen or so guns from members of this board and have always been satisfied with the purchase. Good people here. Always gave a good description of what they were selling. As far as rust and bad bores goes, shoot whatever propellant you like but clean afterwards. Not...

Deerstalkert you reminded me of why I'm not married. Thank you brother. Sometimes need to be reminded.

3 elk and 3 deer and two wild boars. Unfortunately none with a muzzle loader. 99?% of my hunting has been small game and birds and varmints.

Welcome from Yuma. Where are you in the state?

Lawyers and insurance companies along with big business are running the country. They are all money driven machines and we are the one's that get to pay like it or not.

A J Fara, Gardone Italy. I think has something to do with who made the rifle, not positive though.

All I know is that I learned to follow through when shooting serious High Power rifle and my scores improved a lot. Same applies to the muzzle loaders that I shoot nowadays, I still have trouble with the flintlocks due to the way the lock works but I'm working on it.

I think about the only two things I have screwed up and not done with a muzzle loader is to shoot someone or launched a rod down range, but there is still time.

In my personal vernacular when I gotta pee or something I go to the bathroom and everyone understands what I'm doing or where I'm going. I kill things with a gun or bow and arrow and everyone understands that too. All this discussion nit picking about weapons, firearms, whatever else is boring...

I have a living trust on all my property and my youngest son is the first trustee upon my demise. He wants to keep all my guns or I would have sold most of them off long ago. It's good to plan ahead.

I posted some pictures of a rifle that I had obtained a couple of years ago but I'll be darned if I can remember how I did it. Aging minds are a mystery.

I think if a person thinks enough of an animal to kill it he should think enough of it to care for it after killing it, or he shouldn't.

I think that city folk and country folk by way of their raising use different language to express ideas. Where a person raised in a hunting family would probably use a different word for the processing of a dead animal from the kill to the butchering of same than a person that was raised in a...

Up in Northern Az While elk hunting near Winslow we would find native trash piles, ancient natives, and there would be tons of pot shards but precious few points or pieces of points. I always wondered about the lack of stone points in these places.
