Ok there are a lot of game cams out there. It is confusing figuring out what I'd like to buy. I want to keep it in the 100 buck range as far as cost. I would like to be able to upgrade the power source with a solar power cell if that is possible and I would like to be able to use a memory card...

Cold feet These will be used for when I am sitting in a deer blind, I am using heavy socks over 2 pair of socks with oversized insulated boots. The chemical pads work good, but I can't turn them off if I want to when I get up to move.

If I only get one I have to go with a 30/06, but then again I have 10 different deer rifles because I like variety.

I get cold feet easily. For me it makes for an unconfortable hunt sitting in a stand. Does anyone make a really good pair of electric socks? I like the chemical warmers ok, but I would consider using electric ones if I could get something that works as good. What experiences have you...

I have a benelli nova. I put a slug barrel on it and get about the same results, plus I can put back on the old barrel and shoot 3 1/2 magnums at duckys or hunt quail and dove. A lot of people are surprised how accurate a good slug gun can be. Reckon how much those NEFs are? They sound interesting.

30 minute hunt This is what I like to see, some good huntin" storys. I am headed out for a few days to hunt out of the stand where this deer was taken on opening day (not by me doggonit) in central Tx. Yesterday morning I was at an area closer to where I live. Three doe came down the hill...

those do look interesting !! jr

I'm with 22-rimfire on this one. I'd be inclined to go back there with a few buddys of mine in the same vehicle. I'd park in the same spot and find a good hide. I'd wait and watch for these clowns while sincerely hoping that they try to do it again. I'll bet we could figure out whose...

I will take deer with mine after I re-barrel it. Mine was rechambered too, but it retains the length of the 7.7 case. I guess whoever had it was cutting down 30/06 cases for it and slightly blowing them out to fit the chamber. I bought a nice 7.7 chrome barrel. I think the 7.7 cartridge is going...

In my Benelli Nova 12 gauge I have gotten great results with Winchester supreme 3 inch sabots. With a 3x9 scope it is impressive at the 100 yard target, but simply brutal to shoot. If I could ever find the Hornady SST in 3 inch I would absolutely try those. All of which are at a premium...

I am in the automotive industry and since I am going broke I can't jump out there and buy any of the stuff I want to. It sucks too because I really do want in on it !!!

What ammo do you guys use to hunt deer with your .44 mag pistol? I've been shooting Hornady vmax 240 grain, but would a 300 or heavier grain bullet be more effecvtive? My work will all be under 30 yards.

I was keeping my Interarms Virginian Dragoon loaded by my bed. I had 44 specials in it. Recoil is no problem with that pistol with .44 sp. Recently I replaced it as my bedside companion with a 9mm SW. Very real concerns with where my bullets could wind up made me do it. There is something...

It,s here and its on the gun, may get a chance to shoot it this weekend. I had to take a razor knife and shave a wee bit off each side of the stock opening then it went right in. Looks cool.

A 20 recoil is fairly moderate, a 22 has no recoil to speak of while a 12 can be a serious kicker esp in cheap single shots. shevrock is correct on ammo, .410 is expensive to buy. I was disappointed shooting at anything with a .410 slug over 20 yards away. Cheap single shot 410s are...
