    Hog Rifle... what do you use?

    It all depends on the season for me. During deer rifle season I'll use my Remington 700LTR in .308 or a 12 or 20ga slug. During small game hunts I'll use my 10/22 or my Rossi single shot .17hmr. I pull out the PSE Firestorm lite during archery and turkey seasons. However, my favorite pig gun...

    Hunting...(Just not me)

    Great pictures. I've seen a few owls around here in Athens and they're all around middle Ga. It's always crazy to see such a big bird fly by without making a sound.

    Which .308 AR?

    I picked up an Eagle Arms (armalite subsidary) AR10 yesterday for 750. I haven't gotten a range test on it, but you can find deals if you look around.

    The "Obama scare" seems to be in retreat...this is what I got last summer...

    I always thought the Obama scare was a sham and I'm glad it's turned out to be. I figured he'd have more on his plate to deal with and I never really though he seemed openly anti

    2010 harvest pics

    Seal, what setup do you have there? It looks like a 700 action.

    Skinning and field dressing

    If you look on the website course for the Georgia Hunter's Safety course they have a pretty detailed step by step description (with pictures, I think) on how to field dress a deer.

    $350 Challenge

    Mencius, I'd recommend trying to figure out what the selling value of the rig as is (including the markdown for a used rig) would be. I know it's not an exact science, but I think we can call a bluff if somebody is generously underestimating the value of the rig. Courtgreene, don't let the...

    Can't Shoot That

    I couldn't shoot a bear or any species of cat. Not that I'd ever get the opportunity to hunt them, but I don't think I could kill an elephant or a rhino either. Everything else I don't have a problem hunting, but I always feel a little sad after taking an animals life.

    Question about shotgun

    In Georgia a shotgun can't have more than 3 shells in it unless hunting coyotes or hogs. OP, I'd suggest plugging it so that you can have two in the mag and just not using the extra space.

    $350 Challenge

    I'm only going to be counting animals taken after January 1st. I really hope people will take interest in this, I have my setup ready and am waiting to get back to the hunting club to start.

    First Camo Spray Job

    Looks great. I'm assuming that's going to be your yote gun?

    Success with a .25-35 Winchester

    Thanks for ruining the strawberry milkshake I just made.....But congratulations on your doe anyway. It's amazing how much people underestimate some cartridges. Come to think of it, the last deer I took was with my car chambered in Honda Pilot. It's not exactly zippy (I think that shot was around...

    Pawnshop crawling

    I've gotten some great deals at pawnshops recently. There are some ones that specialize in guns around my area and they'll typically offer you quite the deal. Recently I picked up a NIB Rossi matched pair for $175 and before that I got a lightly used PSE Firestorm for $140.

    All three of those rifles will take a coyote if you make a good shot.

    12GA Rifle From HELL--

    I'm going to go ahead and say it........Is this enough gun for wild boar?

    .22 WMR or .17....?

    I have single shot 17HMR. It's really a nice cartridge and it is pretty accurate out to 200 yards. I haven't taken it hunting yet, but I'm confident that I won't have a problem with lethal shot placement.

    Debunking the TKO myth

    Random question, why are we referring to this as a "TKO". That stands for technical knockout which in boxing means that the round was stopped regardless of an actual knockout occurring. We really should just call it a KO since the animal is going to be actually physically knocked out.

    Best way to keep poachers off my property (Keep this HighRoad please)

    An older friend of mine and I used to go hunting on his land once or twice a year. He had a poaching problem and one time he said the best way to prevent it was to be on the land frequently. Just as he said, we ran across a poacher on his land later that morning. We told the guy politely that...

    Accurizing one of my old 22LR rifles?

    I'd go with the 10/22. On a related note, how will they shoot if you remove the barrel band? I'm thinking about taking mine off, sanding the barrel channel and putting a small pressure pad at the muzzle end of the stock. Would this help?

    Rossi Spare Barrels

    Does anybody know if the barrels for the Rossi Wizard will fit on the receiver of the Rossi matched pair rifles? It looks like the same frame with a different stock/hanguard, but they don't specify if they are interchangeable. I hope the answer is yes because I'm thinking a .223 would be a nice...
