Re: OT: Saying Goodbye...

Some of BoogyMan's ashes will be spread over one of his absolute favorite places on the Stamp that we frequented so many times: https://i.imgur.com/kFN56dB.jpg Another little bit goes into his own plant in the yard. Small tradition we started, we collect a new-to-us variety, and grant it a little lo...

Re: O/T inline - muzzlerloader

When I still ran my Knight Master Hunter 50 cal (they pulled the season for them, gave it to Pa):

45 caliber pistol bullets in sabots.
150 grain Pyrodex (3 x 50 grains)
Remington Mag primers.

DEADLY to 175+ yards.

Re: HOW FAR DO YOU HAVE TO TRAVEL TO PRACTICE SHOOTING YOUR CB?

twenty minutes out the back door and up the mountain.
Can run them out over 100 up there.

Other place we often go is a Rancher Buddy's place - about 45 minutes away.
Same range distances.
For him just out the back door.
For us, it's fun with friends...

Re: CR 2032 battery drain in X bow scopes.

The Hawke XB 30 Compact I run has excellent lighting for my eyes.
On the lowest or second lowest setting (again, prefer the BLUE) it is pretty much perfect - for me.
And as noted, has been the regret of many a buck & boar.
Higher settings, not so much.

Cheers,
Nog
