I wasn't an anti-vaxer 5 years ago but I am now after seeing how the wanna-be authoritarians use the COVID to bully people. So, here's one of the anti-vax crowd weighing in... Being anti-vax doesn't make me anti-antivenom...

Thanks for supporting my point. BTW - my light bird gun is a barely 6 lb 20 gauge side-by-side. It's great for walking up game but not heavy enough to smooth the swing and tame the recoil on a good dove hunt.

Hear, here. I think a lot of guys don't fully appreciate that a light gun and a small gauge gun are two different solutions to two different problems. Ie, a good dove gun is never a good quail/grouse gun. A 6¾ lb 28 gauge in a gun cabinet next to a 5¾ lb 20 gauge makes complete sense to me.

I have 12s, 16s, 20, 28 and .410 in the gun cabinet. The 28 gauge has a reputation as "punching above its weight class". I promise it does not. Physics does change at the sub-atomic level but it doesn't change at the sub-gauge level. My belief is that the 28 gauge's reputation is based on...

I have some Axil but they are disappointing. I've gone back to using the orange roll-up, in-ear things.

I refuse to own a safe queen. Every gun I have whether it's considered nice or not, gets to go hunting...

I just saw this thread. I bought a Browning White Satin in .410 back in April - when Browning was having their income tax rebates. I absolutely love this gun...

So, I have a similar issue. I have an O/U in .30-06 that shoots a 150 grain bullet at 2930 fps from the Under barrel in the same hole as a 180 grain bullet at 2750 fps from the Over barrel. Rather than re-regulate the gun, I just go with it. In Africa, I shot Accubonds in both barrels. I...

You both are way too kind. Thank you very much.

Dang - I'm jealous.

Our duck season hasn't opened yet but here are a few from a rail hunt...

I got a Shotkam over the summer for my shotguns. It's really designed for birds at 25-45 yards but does okay with ground game. 100 yards is pushing the limits of digital zoom even when starting with a 4k picture. Shotkam automatically slows the video captures to 1/3 speed because that's the...

My wife would love Africa but she doesn't fly so I went by myself. It was still a great, albeit, a different experience. That being said, being home during the aftermath of cancer treatments is probably a good idea.

I'm a little bias on this but I think I've got the perfect PG gun in the perfect PG caliber... [.30-'06]
