Under this set of criteria, leave the rangefinder at home, and carry a flat shooting rifle set 3.5" high at 100 yds. If so, you're good to 350-400 yds without holdover, and most should not shoot...

Well, Cog, until you come up with a rational alternate explanation, your position is untenable. He was not describing characteristics, and you know it.

I don't know, Brotzie, is that the new "don't ask, don't tell" camo pattern?

Sorry, your subsequent explanation is a non-sequitur. One does not have attitudes about pens. The whole point of the statement was that when we become "enlightened", we would be just as enlightened...

Cog, sorry, the only rational interpretation of his words were that he was indeed comparing the two. If you disagree, then please present the other interpretation.

Well, Montanapete did, and you did attempt to twist my words by telling me that Smokepole was not infallable, something I never alleged. Don't deny the obvious.

Cog, I didn't say Smokepole was infallible. Do not twist what I wrote.

Do not mistake not agreeing with you with misunderstanding the issue. It is a fallacy of people who are emotionally...

I know Paul Navarre. Don't take his statements out of context. He's not disparaging rifle hunters, and is not an elitist, by any means. He is a very decent, likeable fellow.

He's also a 68 yr...

Montanapete, FYI on Smokepole....he doesn't miss the point.

That thing with an elk on it has a "hold my beer and watch this" look about it.

At pistol school, we were taught that there was no such thing as an accidental discharge, only "negligent discharges".

Committing a ND was grounds for immediate termination.

There was one...

A compound bow fits easily in the gunbearer and it's then quickly available.

Someone, I can't remember who, posted a photo of this a while ago.

Bbright, WRT flinches and recoil issues, do what you can to minimize this. If your Remington doesn't have a decelerator or limbsaver on it, get one. It'll take a lot of the sting out right there.

The level of discourse shown in the PM that Ed C referenced is uncivil, and will not be tolerated on this message board.

This isn't about viewpoints. It's about behaving in a civil, and...

I'm not a computer jock, and do recall that the targeting mechanism on the Abrams tanks was one a 286 (remember??) based system.

I've just had so damn many problems with XP that the idea it would...

Well, that's true, and night fishing could be easier. Can you imagine seeing the glow below a 4 square mile school of tuna, lighting it up?

(Tuna fishing is great fun. If you've never done it,...

Windows XP on a nuclear sub? To do what?

I'd be extremely worried if the machines are going to do anything other than manage email. Guiding the sub? Latching up as you're going through a canyon...

I found, at least with my trail camera, that you want to have the animals approaching the camera. Otherwise, they'll go through fast enough to be missed altogether, or you'll get photos of just the...

My oldest son joined the Navy at 19. It was the best thing that ever happened to him.

Good luck. Keep up posted.

While today's economy may mean different, in general, they have a 12 month backlog. The week before Christmas always seems to be open, though.

Here's some video from one of the other fellows on the hunt.

He shot a nice boar that evening.

They are primarily a bowhunting ranch. They do allow rifle hunting, if all the other hunters agree.

We typically go every March. This was just an extra spot with another group, and I took the...

Ball powders, like 748 and 760, throw well, as do the flake powders like 700x.

The extruded powders, like the 4350 that Sawtooth uses in his 30-06, don't throw anywhere near as well.

I throw my...

Chambero, I had some of this boar for breakfast this morning, and he was fantastic. So was my 231 lb boar from 2007.

Can't lose them all.

And yes, shooting them is a load of fun. The perfect...

Shooting a recurve or longbow is art. Shooting a compound is science.

But whatever you choose, get one, and shoot a lot. Get proficient, and practice on tree stumps, and flowers, if you can. ...
