    Maggie’s best bull shizzle someone told you and was serious

    Re: best bull shizzle someone told you and was serious I worked with a guy that said his grandpa used to take a .22 to turkey shoots and he would always win. He would win because he would wait for the turkeys to stick their head up from behind logs and he would shoot them in the head. Also...

    Hunting & Fishing Getting ducks on a pond

    I am looking to do some duck hunting this year. I have access to a couple of ponds and to a large lake. I am wondering how to get some ducks coming in. I am going to get some duck boxes put out soon but other than that I'm not sure what else to do. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.

    How bout them Gamecocks!!!!!

    Last night was as big of a win as we have ever had. It was pretty awesome to watch. But I'm sure now that we beat UGA everyone will say that they are over rated. Anyway, none of that matters if we don't take care of business in Baton Rouge this weekend.

    Gunsmithing need help with 1911

    Re: need help with 1911 Turns out that the slide stop pin was too long and the round was hitting it as it was being loaded. I took it to a local smith and he found it in 30 seconds. I guess it's easy when you know what to look for.

    If you could start from scratch, what do you buy?

    Re: If you could start from scratch, what do you buy? You can buy the RCBS kit and it will have the basics like a press, tray, primer press, lube and pad, and so on. I would get a digital scale instead of the one that comes with the kit. You will also need dies for your caliber and a shell...

    .308 case lenght

    Re: .308 case lenght I have already read that post so I guess my question is, is .005" too much variation between case lengths? Will this be an issue with accuracy? Even if my lengths were 2.020", would 2.015" to 2.020" be acceptable tolerances? Or should they be within .002"? What's the...
