    1 MOA accuracy less common than you think ?

    Legitimate question here. Wouldn’t the 1” circle be a disadvantage for the person shooting the larger caliber rifle? Specifically, wouldn’t a person shooting a .204 Ruger have an advantage over the person shooting a 30-06? The .30 cal is obviously bigger and the edges of the bullets could...

    Best balls

    My next door neighbor is a large animal veterinarian here in Wisconsin. Every year in April, he has “Doc’s Nut Fry.” I’ve been invited a couple times. One of my guys lives close to where the nut fry is held and I approached him about going with me. When he seemed a bit cold to the...

    Major construction projects, being built with wood

    Where I am at In Wisconsin, if you have recreational land that is in a “forestry” program the DNR controls what happens with your timber harvest. Clear cut. That is what is prescribed for wildlife habitat. In the construction industry, if we disturb an acre (I think that is the magic number)...

    Purchases On AH References

    I purchased an item from @BeeMaa. Arrived much earlier than expected. I’m sure he sent it while the check was still in the mail. I would not hesitate to buy from him. I’m reluctant to talk about watches with BeeMa; that’s a good way to distance yourself from $3-$4k. Item was as described...

    Any other Cheese lovers here?

    Kurt, I think you are correct. I’m pretty confident that folks from other areas are not familiar with the “squeak.” Caddy cheese curds are fantastic. A few years ago, I lived across the street from the Yellowstone Cheese Factory in Cadott. We knew exactly what day they made fresh curds...

    What TV hunting personality?

    My cousin actually went on a hunt in Michigan with Ted Nugent. He had a good time and said that Ted was a good host. I don’t remember if he had a hunting show per se, but I remember Babe Winkelman on Saturday TV doing fishing shows. That would be a guy I could hunt with. John
