    I got my Lion.

    I've been hunting with a buddy who has the hounds. It's been a up and down season I've seen the highs and the extreme lows of hunting cats. We caught one and went to another tree and when we got there the cat had jumped the tree and killed the dog she was there by herself. The cat was a big Tom...

    School me on the T/C Contender?

    Hunting with a pistol is the closest thing to Bow hunting that I've found. My closest shot was about 20 yards with my SBH in 44 mag my longest shot was 275 yards with my 7-30 waters on my Antelope. Flip

    I got my Lion.

    I'm go to have it mounted as a wall rug and the scull European mounted. I live in Idaho and we were hunting about 10 miles from my house. In the past they have caught cats 4 or 5 miles from the house so they are here I never go up in the hills without a hand gun. Flip

    I got my Lion.

    Yes we were hunting with Hounds. I have a lot of respect for hound hunting now. Before I didn't know much about it and I'm still learning there is nothing like hearing a pack of hounds Flip

    I got my Lion.

    Thank you. Yes we've eaten some of it. I made about 10lbs of sausage mixed with about 15%bacon ends and pices along with some good spice the rest I'm making jerky with it. It reminds me more of pork than anything g else. Flip

    I got my Lion.

    After a long Lion season I was able to get it done. This was one of my most trying hunts several trips running roads that you shouldn't be on. Very cold mornings bucking deep snow to hiking up some very rough mountains and cliffs and to get it done with my bow. Flip.

    Ethical distance for a coyote with a .223

    I'm a fan of the 40 grain VMAX running out of my tender carbine at 3615 fps I also have a reload shotgun shell with 27 pellets of cast #4 buck shot. It patterns very well out to about 75 yards as for the 40 grain vMAX ballistically it's good to 300 yards. I hit crows and other birds out to 250...

    Handgun Hunting

    I'm a tender fan I also like my 6 guns. All you need is one. Shot placement is key I have used my SBH 44 mag at bow ranges off hand with great success. But for extended ranges I take my tender. I'm a fan of the 7-30 waters with a 120 grain Nosler BT running 2550 fps it's good to 300 yards...

    advice on scoped hanguns

    I agree with most of what has been said. On thing I'll add is pratice and pratice some more and when you think your good enough pratice some more. And when you can hit a 10" paper plate every time not just once or twice but every time that is your max range. I shoot a Contender in several...

    Single Shot 44 mag vs 20 ga on deer

    I'd choose the 44 you use a cast Boolit not a hard cast but one that is a mix of Wheal weights and soft lead with a 240 to a 310 grain Boolit you will get the same results. Lead Boolits have been used for years apon years. Eather one will get the job done but I would preferr the 44. A 50/50 mix...
