  1. Yep, get down and still hunt/stalk for a while. Learn to read the woods.
  2. Sage advice. Do some research while youre waiting. After you put down the deposit with Shiloh you'll have approximately a year to change details including caliber. Some final thoughts. I think Shiloh will be around a long time. Current barrels are as good as anyones if not better. Ive never seen a Bryan era Shiloh with anything but perfect wood to metal fit. I cant say the same for C. Sharps.
  3. Yep, the seed attracts birds, squirrels, mice, and maybe a rabbit or two. In turn, here come the predators. All in all it often makes for an interesting outing.
  4. I'm think the primers of yesteryear were of softer metal and easier to detonate. They had a lower brisance for sure.
  5. Not trying to be a smart a$$ but the subject comes up often. Read all this and get back to us. Google is your friend! So far as the Number One vs # 3 the pistol grip versions are easier to shoot off the bench and provide somewhat better recoil control. If you get a 3 get one with the shotgun butt if you select a thumper. Heck, they are pretty much all thumpers with heavy bullets. Get the best sights available. Shiloh warrants their rifles for smokeless provided its a caliber for which there are SAAMI standards. That will cover the 45-70 but nothing else in the way of original rounds. So other than the 45 Govt you're on your own.
  6. Put some bird feed in your feeder with the corn. Buy a good set of 8x32 binoculars that they can use on the stand. Then they can watch birds,squirrels, and other critters....hopefully learn to identify them. Talk about the trees and shrubs...encourage them to learn about their natural surroundings. Build a little "celebration" fire whether you kill anything or not. Hunting with your kids/grandkids is so much more than hunting!
  7. I have to turn on the captions for anything. It sure helps when the audio is garbled.
  8. Here's the deal. He's got a lot more in that box of ammo than he cares to admit and he's not budging.
  9. The contacts are likely corroded. That or the denominator is stuck.
  10. Thats likely to be a B model with either half or full octagon barrel. We'll need pics! I've the 250 of my fatherinlaws and a 300. Recently passed on a pretty nice 1899B in 25-35.....about as rare as the 38-55.
  11. Youll love em. My wireless signal goes out to the shop and i can browse the net, look up parts or diagrams, listen to music, etc. On my Kindle.
  12. Whisky or Whiskey? Without breaking the bank MaCallan 12 yr and Bulleit Rye or Bourbon. A second chance for whiskey would be Rebel Yell.....yeah its cheaper but its quality stuff.
  13. I have one......the wife has an expedition. Both ecoboost
  14. I buy worthless, outdated junk on GB and Ebay that hardly anyone else would bother with. Getting outbid is rarely a problem.
  15. Stations along the old Butterfield Line here are 12-15 miles apart
  16. Yep they sure did. Ulzannas Raid is better than 3/4 ofthem and it was left off too. So was the Professionals.
  17. Evidently Fords touted "Triton" engine is the latest lemon.
  18. I don't even try anymore. The makers have all but engineered us shade tree types out.
