    Help - I need a deep freeze

    My side by side refer/freezer is running out of space and I have more venison to store. Will an upright freezer unit work or do those not work as well as the chest type? What size (I don't have a ton of excess space). Will a ~9 c.f. unit work or do I need to move up? I'm thinking in the future...

    Got a great hill country buck last weekend

    This was my second nice buck this year. It was a great hunt, I'm going to write the story up over the holiday. The rancher knew how to set up a great photograph, and took this one of me and the buck (I’m sitting a little behind and downhill of him, his rack is in silhouette against the sky...

    No limit dove hunt in Texas!

Can I...

    Price Check on Beretta 686

    Silver Pigeon Grade 1, the 20 and 28 gauge combo. NIB, all chokes, but no carrying case. I saw one locally for $2100. Is this a good buy that I should jump on or a normal price that I could expect to find again in a few months?

    Should I get a 28 gauge?

    Here's a synopsis of my story with shotguns: I've been dove hunting with 12 gauges since I could hold one up, which is about the last 20 years (my dad's and grandfathers guns - Ithaca 37 (modified choke), Winchester 1200? Pump (the one with an Aluminum receiver, modified choke)). Last year I...

    Patch tool stuck in barrel

    I'm a BP novice as you can see in my other thread asking for advice. Here's a story regarding fouling from this week - I shot ~4 rounds through my .54 Hawken, and then I decided to swab the barrel. I put a patch all the way down the bore, and then as I start to pull it back - it sticks about...

    I've lurked on THR for awhile and really appreciate all of the insite everyone on THR shares with each other. I'd like to solicit a little advice from some of the folks here - about a year ago I picked up a 54 cal. percussion cap Hawken replica and a Pedersoli 12 gauge SxS percussion cap...
