    16ga ???

    When I was a young hunter back in the 1960's, 16 gauge was quite common among hunters of upland game. Always an excellent choice for flying pheasants and running rabbits. I remember the purple cardboard hulls were sold at Tru Value Hardware for a very fair price. TR

    Anyone use an x bow or for your kid?

    I sold my older Ten Point and bought a new Wicked Ridge model with the hand crank cocker. Amazing how little effort it takes to cock this crossbow. TR

    Inline muzzleloader for hunting?

    My son-in-law's brother always shows up at deer camp with his only rifle. Its a CVA Wolf in 50 caliber and it hits hard within the typical distances we shoot. He has toppled several deer and one bear with this rifle. TR

    Im looking to do a pig hunt this spring

    This is where we hunt in Florida for wild hogs. They're spooky but can be approached by a stealthy stalk. The guide is very helpful and always puts us on hogs. Pricing for a fully guided hunt is $230. for a hog weighing less than 125 lbs. More for the truly huge ones. Guide dresses, skins...

    Coastal blacktail hunt

    This is a photo of a photo. I downed this dandy coastal forky when I was stationed at Travis back in 1991. I had to crawl and use hunting skill to position myself within shooting distance. Marlin 44 MAG did the job with just one shot; distance was about 100 yards. No exit hole which means this...

    22-250 for whitetail?

    There is very little variance between 22-250 and 243. Not enough difference for killing power on deer sized animals. - TR

    With Deer Season Approaching: Rifle/Chambering/Load/Optic

    Where I usually hunt in northern Florida and central Pennsylvania, the shots tend to be 75 yards or less. So, I continue to hunt with my Mossberg lever gun in 30-30 fitted with a Simmons 2-7X scope. For ammo, 170 grain Power Point is a dandy. - TR

    Rifleman with a Crossbow

    This dandy Maryland buck was downed at a distance of about 30 yards or so. I bought this older Ten Point crossbow second hand in 2008 and it has always performed quite well for me. - TR

    Guns you thought you’d like but didn’t…

    I had a Savage model 24-S for a time in my youth. It featured a 22 barrel a top a 20 gauge barrel with selector on the hammer. Rifle sights for the shotgun made hitting running and flying game quite challenging. And the full choke did not help either. It was traded away. - TR
