You re sound asleep when you hear a thump outside your bedroom door. Half awake, and nearly paralyzed with fear, you hear muffled whispers. At least two people have broken into your house and are moving your way. With your heart pumping, you reach down beside your bed and pick up your shotgun. You rack a shell into the chamber, then inch toward the door and open it. In the darkness, you make out two shadows. One holds something that looks like a crowbar. When the intruder brandishes it as if to strike, you raise the shotgun and fire. The blast knocks both thugs to the floor. One writhes and screams while the second man crawls to the front door and lurches outside. As you pick up the telephone to call police, you know you re in trouble. In your country, most guns were outlawed years before, and the few that are privately owned are so stringently regulated as to make them useless. Your...

Deer Hunters Here are some early photos of a great deer taken during the youth hunt this year. This buck was shot at a property only eight miles from where I hunt on my brother in law s property in Grant County. We saw a buck with 16 inch tines two years ago. It could have been him or a relative. Anyway, Grant County produces some great bucks every year. This buck green scores 203 Typical, NET, not gross. If so, this would place this buck in the top three typical all time in Wisconsin, and that includes the great Jordan Buck at 207 that was world record for decades. These pictures were taken in front of the Cabala s store in Prairie du Chien, WI. The hunter shown in the picture a 15 year old Williams boy from Millville, WI. The deer was shot between Millville and Woodman. The buck was shot with a rifle during the youth h...

Sure there were exceptions, but most of the city boys didn t really have the skills they needed to. The key up there is to either bow hunt or find a pretty secluded place to rifle hunt to get away from the crowds. That s not easy to do, but it can be done.

It appears that Obama wants to use international treaties to do what congressional legislation is not able to do further restrict the right of the American people to keep and bear arms. Obama is using the oft disproved contention that 90 of the guns recovered in Mexico come from the United States as the stated basis of his support for the international treaty he is promoting. The treaty is formally known as the Inter American Convention Against the Illicit Manufacturing of and Trafficking in Firearms, Ammunition, Explosives and Other Related Materials CIFTA treaty. The Bill Clinton administration signed the treaty back in 1997, but the U.S. Senate has never ratified the treaty. Obama intends ...

Obama s strategy at least one of them is starting to become clearer no bullets, no problems. I don t see any particular reason for this to occur except for keeping brass out of the hands of legal gun owners. DOD Ends Sale of Expended Military Brass to Remanufacturers When the new administration would make their move against us as gun owners. Oh, everyone got upset about HR45 I ll bet I got over 100 e mails warning me about this draconian gun registration bill that had been introduced in Congress. I was really glad to see Tom Gresham, host of Gun Talk Radio, an editor, writer, television host on Self Defense TV, and one of the foremost gun spokespersons, come out and tell everyone to stop worrying about legislation so absolutely over the top it would never get out of committee. ...

Looks like it might be a little dated, but still a great deer. It s not officially measured yet, but it looks certain that a buck deer taken by Florida archer Scott Fowler at the Poosey Conservation Area on September 18 will become the largest typical whitetail ever recorded in Livingston County. The big buck is definitely the earliest legal buck of this size ever for Missouri, whose archery season opened on September 15 this year for the first time. The archery deer opening date had been October 1 for many years. Fowler, despite residing in Pensacola, Florida, is not a newcomer to hunting at Poosey. He s been coming here every year since 1996 when he was working as a union electrician on the Ameristar Casino in Kansas City and used his spare time scouting out a place to bowhunt. He s been coming to Poosey regularly on scouting trips and to hunt ever since. This huge buck is the fifth buck he s taken here in that length of time and four of the previous d...

I did several years of research into long range knockdown power, trajectory, ease of getting rounds i.e. number of mfgrs and number of loads available , bullet construction including ballistic coefficient , and weight range before buying a rifle several years ago. Even called some of the manufacturers themselves. Like Duckwacker said early in the thread I got a 7mm Remington Mag and never looked back. It has the best combination of flat trajectory, ease of ammunition purchase, widest range of bullet weights in the whitetail to elk class available, and downrange performance. The pics below from Federal s website show what I m trying to illustrate between say a .270 and 7mm with 140 grain bullets from the same manufacturer they also demonstrate how fine a line we re talking about here .

Great gun, especially for the price. My Sendero is the most accurate out of the box gun I ve ever owned at well under 1 groups with factory ammunition. Don t skimp here or on the optics you get what you pay for. A good rifle scope combination, if taken care of, will last you for decades. You re also going to find that there are a wide number of opinions here on caliber selections. I ll try to be as unbiased as I can The .270 definitely has its merits its realtively flat shooting up to 130 grains, ammunition is easy to find, and it doesn t kick nearly as hard as a .30 06. The .30 06 is a great round too, not anywhere as flat as the .270, but you can take just about any game animal in the U.S. with it except big bears . It has a wide bullet weight range of 150 to 180 grain some load a round nose 200 grain too . The .30 06 I owned was a tack driver but it also had a pretty good kick to it. Frankly, if you re going to think in the .270... Mon, 29 Dec 2008 02:58:53 GMT http://www.texashuntfish.com/app/view/Post/21966/Help-me-decide- wohalliburton 2008-12-29T02:58:53Z
