I have not shot mine in years, I hate chasing brass from an AR! I should sell the upper and get a bolt gun. Last time I shot it a buddy of mine wanted to try it. He snuggled into it on the bench, squeezed off a shot and started jumping around cussing a blue streak. Seems that big ol HOT case ejected...

GunnyMack

Glad to hear she is doing well!
My sister was a premie, she came home in a shoebox, then into a dresser drawer until she outgrew it. She topped out at 4'11".

GunnyMack

Congratulations!

Got over to the farm this morning, a little snow fell overnight, always fun to hunt in the snow. Sage was her usual bubbly ( think hyper whirlwind) self. I swear she can piroette on a pin head she just moves so fast with excitement! Turns out we were the only ones to show up. I put out 3 roosters an...

I'd take it apart, metal from wood, see how well the break goes back together, get a feel for how well it will actually go back together then decide on how to get it to stay together, wood glue , epoxy, acraglas. Might even inlet a piece of threaded rod or two. To get it looking period correct eithe...

GunnyMack

THat looks like a crack that was there and possibly repaired many years ago.
Still hurts to look at though.

GunnyMack

Is it for twist offs?

GunnyMack

Ain't that the truth!

GunnyMack

Jim just imagine what the moose,bears,caribou,wolves live with on a daily basis with all those blood suckers! Not experiencing Alaska blood suckers but dealing with the suckers that buzz with a French accent in Quebec you learned to move fast and cover all exposed skin! We were told by a Canadian ga...

GunnyMack

We didn't have any work today so I ran over to the farm to fill the feeder and scout for a blind location. One spot I went to check out is a mowed field edge and I find this shed! 20251205_101012.jpg I find sheds in the spring but I've never found one in December. The attachment shows no blood. I wo...

GunnyMack

Where does the electronic collar go Bill!? ( Around the family jewels) Of the 8 labradors I've been blessed with half have been hunters. All but 1 I'm sure would have hunted but I wasn't in a position to hunt/train. Claro has been bird CRAZY her whole life, a fine hunter but very grabby if given the...

GunnyMack

At least they finally arrived Val!

GunnyMack

Now thats a casting setup!
Very nice Shasta.

GunnyMack

Yes Scott, you are correct about 1 thing at a time.
Obviously looking at the crown and the cap can be done anytime.

When I got my Henry 41 before I even shot it I took the cap off and filed it down enough to never touch the barrel. It will shoot 1 hole groups at 50( with a scope)

GunnyMack

Enjoy it !

GunnyMack

By all means slug the bore.
Look at the crown too.
Hold the GUN EXACTLY the same every shot, with you hand holding the forearm. Some 2piece stocked guns don't like sand bags/rests.
Look at the forearm cap, is it touching the barrel?
Try different powders. Reduce loads if at max.

GunnyMack

Here in the 'zone' that I hunt we can shoot unlimited doe's, 2 at a time. Meaning I can go out and shoot 2 with bow, gun,muzzle loader. Then have to 'check' them via phone or online. Go back out and do it again, day after day from September to mid February. As for bucks only 1 allowed during fall bo...

It's high time the USPS was privatized, weed out all the slack jaws and start fresh. My neighbor snow birds, 2 weeks before he left he put in a change of address, going on two months and there is still mail in his box everyday. I've sent him to Priority Mail boxes stuffed and a 3rd to go soon. When ...

GunnyMack

The Thanksgiving holiday really hurt the participation from the club members. I was the only one available to hunt yesterday. Sage was more like the Tasmanian devil, just a yellow tornado through the field but she found 3 birds , my Parker got the job done with 4 shots. This morning a couple other g...

GunnyMack

Jim that's awesome.
Good on him, his Dad and his GrandDads!

GunnyMack

We all agree that spikes are normally a year and a half old deer. These are not baby deer. These are full grown adults. I understand that Scott, and my fault for not stating a mature deer with spikes will probably never amount to much. Normally a deer with a damaged limb will grow a lopsided rack o...

GunnyMack

We all agree that spikes are normally a year and a half old deer. From what I understand, deer spend 2 years growing "long bones" . Legs, spine until they are deer sized. That means their bodies don't have the energy to grow large antlers. That being said, a big bodied deer with spikes is ...

GunnyMack

Here's to a Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm off to my sister's today. She has a few odds and ends for me to fix so it'll be a working holiday.

GunnyMack

Oh how the left would have lost their brains over that Doc !!

I did get a kick out of Trump saying that last year's turkey pardons were null and void since they were signed by the auto pen !!!

GunnyMack

I used to leave my gun cased in the truck during the season. If it got rained or snowed on it would stay out. When the season is over I bring it inside, open the action and stand it by the stove to dry it throughly . A couple days of dry heat and clean and oil. Never had any rust issues.

GunnyMack

Ha! You would think that but she still has her puppy moments, yesterday she ran around at full speed in pure joy before she settled and started using her nose.

GunnyMack

3 weeks into the '25 bird season and Sage is doing well with her second season. She has been hunting with multiple other folks and performing like a champ! This morning I took a club members son and myself. He shooting a 12 and I took the mighty 410! First bird up was missed by the 12 ga and flew of...

I was given a life membership when I turned 18 by my father. He continued as an annual member. We would swap hunter/rifleman every few years. I've noticed the NRA magazines have really dropped in quality in my opinion. Seems like each month was less and less content I was interested in. How many art...

GunnyMack

Yes Walt I agree.
I sent another email this morning, replied saying it takes 2-3 weeks to process which was a month and a half ago when I made the original request.
I have a feeling they dont have the liquidity to cover all the subscriptions they lost.

GunnyMack

Nice of you to invite him for Thanksgiving Scott!

GunnyMack

For years I subscribed to FMG's Guns magazine. They recently stopped producing the printed magazine. Just my luck a couple months prior to I renewed my subscription for a couple years. After the final issue arrived I sent an email requesting a refund for my subscription. I keep getting apologies for...

Our old mailman and family friend hit a deer on his Harley years ago. The collision put Jimmy in the hospital, more than a few broken bones for both he and his bike. Was another guy not far from here hit a bear on his Harley, guy was hospitalized, bear was killed but his bike was none the worse for ...

GunnyMack

Andy, do you have a 38-40 cylinder as well? With 10mm does it use moon clips? I'd like one if it used moon clips, I've got 40 s&w coming out of my ears and since I hate chasing brass I'd don't shoot my 40 often. Although if I had a Blackhawk with a 38-40 why would a guy shoot 10 or 40?! :lol: Y...

GunnyMack

Jim,
When I first joined i read quite a bit of the non forum info. I should go back and reread it all as many of us should.

GunnyMack

Holy cow! Guns International has a half dozen Blackhawk's listed, lowest priced at $1299.00! I didn't expect them to be that highly priced.

GunnyMack

I get a kick out of all these people saying they can't use pennies because they are no longer being minted - they are still legal tender. Until the very last penny is remelted they are currency. How about that 'Half Dime" I have in my sock drawer. Think I can buy anything with it at my local Q...

I want a .25 PCP or a 30 or a 35! In this state air rifles are considered a FIREARM and you have to go through NICS. Can't have any sound moderator either. Kind of limited to what I can get. Now if I only had a couple grand to splurge for a PCP and a compressor...

GunnyMack

Yes, Scott that was me. Like I mentioned my particular gun really likes those H&N pellets. Each tin of pellets might be lasers or shotgun patterns depending on the gun. I just picked up a tin of the H&N .177 slugs to try. So far I'm not terribly impressed but it's now bow season, bird season...

GunnyMack

Looks like that buck damaged his pedicle.

I shot one years ago that must have had a botfly in his rack as the antler grew with a hole and a deformed its growth.

Just one more reason why Ruger needs to know about this. Is it just this batch or every one since?

GunnyMack

Well I'm very glad to see you have it figured out Scott! Jim, did you chase the throat on yours as well? Has any of the people that have done the throat contacted Ruger and explained what was going on and what the fix is? I sure as heck would. Are these barrels hammer forged or are they drilled and ...

GunnyMack

Awesome- congratulations young MAN !

GunnyMack

My old shooting coach was a 'bad' influence :lol: He told me when I turned of age to buy by caliber. Get a 22 then get a 243, then a 257 etc. I have done that over the past 40 odd years. Now I cover 17,22,257,7mm,30s,338s,375,450 - what I wanted none are the same makes or models. Buy what YOU want, ...

GunnyMack

Yup, I remember seeing those, I was working in a sportshop as a teenager. There were boxes of them on the shelf but I dont remember ever selling any. It's a matter of barrel twist. You would have to get a barrel made for 30 cal with the proper twist for 55s. Sabot tech has come along, think about mu...

Man it's so nice to be back here! Thanks again for getting us up and running again!

GunnyMack

Again, many thanks to Andy and Paul! About the same as others have written. It been bow season here and I've been trying my best to get one of the many bucks on the farm. Since I haven't posted any pictures it's obvious I have yet to unleash a bolt. Tons of does but no bone. Our bird season opened s...

GunnyMack

Look at CutCo, they made their "DOUBLLE D" edged knives and were very long lasting cutting edge as the actual cutting edge is recessed. They are great for cutting on plates. American made and they used to sharpen for the lifetime. One thing that really irritates me is seeing someone just s...
