    Bad News for Deer Hunters: CWD in 2 Men

    Yes, there are very important words used in this article: "might have" "that long-discussed and frequently dreaded transmission of CWD from hunter-harvested deer into human beings might have actually occurred in 2022." Well I might have won the lottery in 2022. But in fact, I did not.😎

    The Knock-Out Game

    That also depends on the environment. On the street and someone targets me or family for recording, yeah thats suspicious. At the boat ramp, people recording with phones and filming with cameras is not unusual.

    Sprindfield XD Remover rear sight

    Lol , they weren't that bad, but it did get near the point of breaking my sight pusher before they finally turned loose. 😆

    Sprindfield XD Remover rear sight

    This! I put Tritium on my XD several years ago and I don't remember for sure without measuring. I think it came out to the right. I do remember that even going the proper direction these were the hardest sights I have ever changed, they stressed my sight pusher to the limit. Penetrating oil and...

    The Knock-Out Game

    Good advice, but hard to do in some situations. Being aware of your surroundings and ready to act is your first defense. Ready to do what?... Get away if possible, but in my case, even if not armed, if I'm still physically capable and trained to go hands on if needed. One example I remember in...

    Chamfering vs flaring/crimping for 9mm?

    I use very little flare and light crimp with LFC die. Have never needed to chamfer 9mm.

    How to value reloading equipment.

    This is pretty much how I would approach it, maybe 70% on stuff that still looked brand new and 50% on well used items.

    About as good as i can do i think

    Good enough for hunting, but I think consistent brass and a different powder might yield better groups for you. N133 would be my first pick if you catch it when its available.

    "Oh my Gawd....do you have a gun in every room?"

    I actually do think too much of my Glocks to keep one in the shower. 😆 I do have a cheaper but reliable stainless handgun in there though.

    Thoughts on a 9mm Rifle for plinking and range use please

    Nothing wrong with the Highpoint, but if you look around you can find the Gen2 Sub2000 for about the same price.

    Ruger PCC FTE

    I'm running glock mags in mine and have never had an issue, but even the cheapest factory ammo I tried was giving me 1100fps or more in my pcc. My plinking 124gr loads with Red Dot are about 1250, so I'm betting your load is a little weak for that PCC. If you run suppressed and subsonic, you...

    "Oh my Gawd....do you have a gun in every room?"

    I live in a rural area so my threats and safety concerns are probably a little different than an urban apartment dweller's. I'm more concerned with a meth head crashing thru a door at any moment than I am a jugging, planned burglary, or an unsecured firearm. I guess the definition "unsecured"...

    Let’s talk vintage reloading presses

    I emptied it last year, so probably only 4k or so in there now.🙂

    Let’s talk vintage reloading presses

    I'm not really sure what's considered "vintage" when it comes to presses. But my bench possibly has three. I know the JR3 on the right is 1960's vintage, it was my grandad's. The other JR-3 is unknown as is the Lee C frame.

    Beloved 30-06 Anyone?

    I have two at the moment, both are sub moa and I've taken several deer with both. 700cdl SF and Howa 1500 Hogue. The odd thing is I've hunted more with the Howa, but if I had to choose only one I'd keep the Rem.

    Surprising and funny things that happened while hunting

    This wasn't really funny, but was surprising. Now you have to realize I was raised by my grandparents on a 500 acre farm and grandpa didn't give a rip about deer season. If we needed meat, he sent me out to get a deer or whatever. Well I was about 14 and one foggy moming just before daybreak...

    Can you get a picture of that dog??😆

    Realistic hunting challenge

    Agreed. I was wondering about his tripod set up when I watched this. My tripod set up rests further back on the forearm so the rifle is more balanced. I may have to compare his to mine and see which actually works better for me.

    Realistic hunting challenge

    Either he read this thread or we were a bit prophetic. He seems to have humbled himself a bit in this one: https://youtu.be/imh2cCk0mno?si=Yz8tRyuKxIy8L8EH

    Realistic hunting challenge

    Just the opposite. If I'm in woods I'm not likely to get a shot more than 100yds anyway and have done that offhand a lot, but I have also used the side of a tree as a rest many times.
