    Wyoming Spring Bear

    The only thing I can say is I don’t know of any place in Wyoming that’s lower than 4500 feet. So you probably don’t have to worry about that. The lower elevations of the Big Horn mountains is probably a good bet.

    Kibler range report

    I’ve found that the harder it is to seat the load, the more accurate it is. Just my 2 cents.

    Unwelcome visitor

    I live on 60 acres in central Florida, moved here in 1971. I have only seen one diamondback rattlesnake in that span of time on my property. However, I have killed about 20 coral snakes and one Pygmy rattlesnake. Although I see and kill a lot of cottonmouths at my hunting camp, I’ve never seen...

    Kibler range report

    I am a charter member of that cult. I never used the stuff for years when I started muzzleoading in the 70s but I got some in the late 80s and had several ignition failures. That was enough for me. Now it’s pure black and Blackhorn 209 with a Magspark.

    Unwelcome visitor

    King snakes and indigos are good too. They are immune to pit viper venom and and can kill rattlers.

    Unwelcome visitor

    My wife came across a coral snake and a Pygmy rattlesnake while gardening last week. She hates snakes and would kill every one so we worked out a compromise. She pins It down and calls me then I identify it and kill it if it’s a dangerous one.

    Hornady ELD-X or Barnes LRX for long range Elk?

    ^^^^^^^^^^ This. You used them before, why quit now? I killed 2 elk in Wyoming in the '70s using a 7mm 140 gr. Partition. Both were 400+ yards. The newest fad to come along isn't always the best.

    https://www.yahoo.com/sports/watch-jaguar-flies-air-pounce-170147253.html This article contains an amazing video of an adult jaguar leaping and catching a caiman in South America. The caiman is as long as the jaguar.

    Anyone use an x bow or for your kid?

    I have a Barnett crossbow with a scope and can't imagine a small person (child) could manage the set-up due to the weight of the bow and the force necessary to cock it even with the string cocker. The weight of the scope would probably not be a factor. An adult or a decent-sized teen would...

    TV Jerk Charged for Numerous Hunting Violations

    With a $31,000 hit on his bank account, I'm sure he will be more careful in the future. His "apology" stated that he ONLY was convicted on a bear hunt in B.C. and a sheep hunt and a moose hunt in Alberta therefore he is not a blatant rules breaker. He also has 2 other charges pending.

    Back with a Lesson

    Live and learn. I'm 80 and still learning. However, I use RIG instead of Ballistol or Vegetable oil. Also, it doesn't stink.

    In search of someone ro make me a 32 sw long conversion cylinder for a 3rd gen 1849 pocket

    If there is a .32 short conversion cylinder for the 1849, have a gunsmith ream out the cylinder with a .32 long reamer. (if he will) The .32 long may have enough power to damage or destroy the cylinder and/or the frame and barrel in which case he would and should refuse. Just because you tell...

    Pietta 1851 Navy Used Price

    I bought a new EuroArms 1851 Brass-framed in the late '70s or early '80s at a pawn shop for about for about $50. Never shot it much and never will. .36 is a pretty useless caliber in a revolver IMO.

    Range Report, .58 cal smooth bore TC Trapper.

    Why not two .570 balls with thin patches ... and a thick shoulder pad? :eek: I have always thought that's what "loaded for bear" always meant.

    If you were restricted to CC a BP revolver, what would it be.....

    Even a 5 1/2" Old Army is really heavy and bulky for a CC gun. I have 3 Old Armys and I would choose a Pietta Sheriff's model in .44 cal.
