Nice old bull, looking forward to seeing the rest of your trophies!

Don’t forget he got to the synagogue by driving an 18 wheeler after attending a black church in the Puerto Rican that raised him.

Our military commander in chief just happens to be our president.

In a perfect world if I was going to use a .308 for the TT I would use a Federal fusion 125gr reduced recoil load. I’ve shot javelina, foxes and coyote with that load with no pelt damage. Of course if I did that that would be the time a 30+” nyala would show up to the call.

There’s resistance and then there is unadulterated hate and that is what Trump faced. In my lifetime I’ve never seen such vitriolic hate and being undermined at every turn.

Unless shooting solids this is the way to go on the tiny ten. Any expanding bullet will blow them to hell and back. My juice for the TT would. E a .22 hornet if I could ever find one.

Put both guns on one 4457 under 1 name , to my knowledge they never check who actually owns the guns just make sure the serial numbers are correct. But the last time I took rifles was 2021 and things change.

While allowing the Trump tax cuts to expire! So much for anyone making under 200k not having their taxes raised.

A lot of Trumps failings were because he had to fight the democrats, the media and many in his own party to accomplish anything. 24hrs of Russia,Russia, Russia would stall any attempt to do anything. Not to mention being called a racist and anti semite at the drop of a hat. This is coming from...

I would add Jake Sullivan to the list.

What type of weapons are being withheld? If it’s precision weapons you would think they would send them as they are better at avoiding civilian casualties than dumb bombs or artillery.

How old is that bull?

There may be someone on the forum close by that can help uncrate for you. Put out a thread for anyone in South Dakota.

Thanks @Ontario Hunter , one thing I remember from Saskatchewan was when ever we ordered just about anything they would ask if we wanted gravy on it. The 3 separate ingredients of poutine sound pretty good except I’m pretty picky about what I put gravy on.

I remember hearing about poutine but can’t remember what it is, please refresh my memory. Thanks

This was back in 2004 before the extreme limits were imposed, but our main focus was cranes, ducks, dark geese and upland birds. Spent a little money on gas for the generator but saved a lot on replenishing my ice. I could have spent some time looking for dry ice but I considered that a waste of...

I don’t know if this would be an option but when I hunted in Canada and brought a lot of birds home from Canada to my home on the Gulf Coast of Alabama. I took a smallish freezer and a generator in the back of my pickup truck. It was a 3 day drive and I was able to freeze the meat and keep it...

To some of my redneck friends thats just a target with a good aiming point.

To me it’s in the eye of the beholder, my PAC elephant is a trophy to me. But you would be correct in the area,some areas produce short and thick (Botswana) some long and thinner (Eastern Africa) some of the elephant hunters I’ve talked to have different opinions, some like shorter thick...

I don’t know where this is but in some places they do call the cheetah a “hunting leopard“ as far as the deer not a clue.

Looks like the dems had to rely on 2 republicans to repeal, they only hold 2 vote margins in both houses. This brings Arizona more in line with the rest of the country I would think.

No but next year I have a day of bird hunting planned but not sure what I’ll hunt yet.

Thanks, waterfowl have been a passion since I was a little kid.

Reason I was asking about the rabies. I’ve read it’s hard to get leopard on bait when there is a rabies outbreak because it hits kudu particularly hard and lots of dead ones in the bush. I would think that they would have contact with saliva, brain matter and spinal fluid when eating infected...

My 3 tiny ten amongst assorted other critters.

Is the same rabies that kills ungulates the same rabies that we have here in the states? Good luck on your hunt! It’s going to change your hunting life forever!

On my .375 Ruger I have one of those rubber slings and it will not slip off of your shoulder, it goes with the rifle as it is a Houge stocked Ruger Alaskan. On my more classic .416 Rigby I have a buffalo leather cobra type sling and it works ok but I haven’t carried it near as much as the Ruger...

What’s a brumby?

A saltwater croc/water buffalo combo is one hunt I would love to make!

Well it’s started again: “ban assault weapons” after the murder of US Marshals in North Carolina.I pray for these officers and their families. It sounds like the warrant was for a prohibited person with a firearm. So no law or ban would have prevented this. Pray for the families of the dead and...

I actually have more floor space than wall space, on the walls along with shoulder mounts I have 60 or so waterfowl mounts. My trophy room is approximately 16’ x 24’.

Actually my bear rug probably takes up more floor space than a full body mount would have. But it’s a smallish California bear.

I have small stuff, klipspringer, bush duiker,steenbok and baboon. I will continue to full body mount anymore tiny ten and varmints I shoot. Hoping for a genet and sharpes grysbok next year. I would also like a full mount of a good bushbuck if I can get the combination of good horns and good...

That’s a good plan.

Those things make my ears hurt just looking at them! I have a short barrel (barely legal) for home defense and it’s so damned loud when I shoot it for fun I wear plugs and muffs and it’s still loud. I know snakes can’t hear but they will surely feel it even if they’re missed by the shot. I can’t...

PETA sticks their collective noses in everything. Down here on the northern Gulf coast there is a bar that straddles the Alabama/Florida line. Once a year they have a charity event called the mullet toss, (for you Yankees that’s a fish) you stand in Florida and throw the mullet as far as you can...

If he is acquitted and is re-elected, the second the dems take control of the House it will be one impeachment charge after the other. They will keep doing it until the end of his term and absolutely nothing will get done for the American people. Hopefully this will be a non issue and the...

I was snooping around by the stock pond next to my house yesterday afternoon and came across this skin. Looks to be about 4’ long and extremely thick. Has to be a good sized cottonmouth. Don’t want to run into him in the dark.

Sorry to hear that it’s tuff to lose a great companion.

Somewhat odd to me that every local seems to have an AK 47 and they are worried about foreigners bringing in binoculars and leaving with their rifles that they imported.

I normally put anything with a serial number ( rifle, camera) on my 4457 but not my binoculars, never even looked to see if they have a serial number.

I may be crazy but I ain’t stupid! She was off with the kids and grandkids in Destin.

That was a great report! Quick curiosity killed the cat question. How do you go about “registration” on binoculars?

I had a buddy “detained” for a couple of hours at OR Tambo for having a spent 7mm brass in his carry on. Ever sense then before heading to the airport I shake every bag vigorously just to make sure nothing has been left in them.

I don’t kill snakes other than the odd cottonmouth that shows up at the house, if I have time I’ll relocate them but sometimes that’s not an option. They are basically just a part of our daily lives. I was impressed by my trackers in Mozambique, they just shewed the Gaboon off of the trail even...

I sort of blew my fun budget at the range Saturday! 20 rounds of .416 Rigby, 30 rounds of .338 Win Mag, 50 rounds of 10mm and 100 rounds of 9mm. May have to get my wife to get a job so I can afford to replace all of that ammo. But it sure was fun!

I had about a 2 and a half foot cottonmouth in one of my crawfish traps yesterday morning. I left it on the bank while I tried to figure out how to get rid of if it and the freaking thing found a way out and disappeared.

Almost stepped on a Gaboon viper in Mozambique in 2014, also on the same trip a 6’ mamba was swimming across a tributary of the Zambezi but he didn’t make it , a 10’ croc had him for breakfast. 2018 we saw an eagle flying off with a snake but no clue what kind it was. That was in the Eastern...

Is it that your wife doesn’t like the chess piece pose?

If it wasn’t so damned dangerous to our country the whole US political establishment as it stands now could be in the lighter note thread!
