    Finders Keepers

    Found a Ka-Bar hunting knife stuck in a fence post while mowing hay years ago. So far as I can tell, someone must have put it there after gutting a deer, and forgot about it. The tip of the blade is the only part not rusted, and the leather washers in the handle have shrunk, but it's still a...

    .264 Win Mag 100gr Sierra HP reloads

    About 20 years ago my Grandfather sold me his custom made .264 Win Magnum for the hefty sum of one dollar. He had it custom made with a Bishop stock, Hart Barrel, FN Mauser action, high luster blue finish and topped it off with a 15x Unertl Ultra Varmint scope. At the time, I was too young...
