Virginian, Can't agree more. I was responding to the OP's question. I shoot a Beretta 686 White Onyx Sporting, but with his price point and his desire to own an O/U I recommended what hit his price point. I agree that a good gas gun or pump at his budget is a better choice. Your brand choices...

Ditto on the hickory escrima sticks and hickory as an excellent wood. My sticks are also hickory and are much preferred to bamboo. (by me) Jim

What a solid rifle. The snow and wind finally let up so I headed out to my woods. I have a 215 yard range in a creek bottom on the east side of property. Two white hots and Powerbelt 270 gr. Aerotips. First shot at 100 yards was 1" low and 2" left. Nice bore sighting job by CVA. Next 6 shots...

Dave, Thanks for the load data. Which Nikon are you using? Is it necessary to clean the barrel after each sabot shot? Jim

Yesterday my new muzzleloader arrived. I purchased the thumb hole stock package with the Konus Pro 275 scope. Read the owner's manual, which was very good and proceeded to take the rifle apart. All I needed was two straight edge screw drivers. It takes less than 5 minutes to remove the barrel...

Now that snow is on the ground my fokos accompanies me on every trip to the barns and tree stand. Go here for pictures: http://www.thehighroad.org/showthread.php?t=710029 Jim

Me too!! Jim

High Expert, Agree completely. This was my first crossbow. I picked the 410 based on reviews and articles I read. I didn't have enough experience to understand the speed or the kinetic energy relative to other models or to crossbows in general. I do now and I agree with your post. If I get...

Odd Job, Looks like a superior design concept. From what I have learned the string breaking on Barnett crossbows happens more than it should. Seems like they could figure that out. Go figure.... Jim

John, It is very unusual for me to shoot anything without glasses. Guess I learned to respect a crossbow as I do my firearms. Jim

This is the cam. The attachment point at the center of the cam is where the knot failed. The knot was around the tear drop shaped connecting point

If I did this right, here are some pictures of the string. The last picture is pieces of the string on the cable between the cams.

Gloob, That is one ugly story. Jim

Gloob, I didn't really have any pain and suffering. Just got the heck scared out of me when the string hit my eyelid. I think my wife liked the black eye. Gave me a tough guy look:D I am not pursuing a negligence claim. I missed two days of work due to the ER visit and a follow up visit to an...
