    Now I'm partial bionic

    Hopefully the PT will get you loosened up again George. Sorry you are having so much trouble with that knee/surgery. So far, knock on wood, my two have been great. Eight years as of Jan on my left one and it'll be 3yrs for my right one this August. The bursa on my right one got slightly...

    Tis The Season

    Well, 5 of us went out for opening day (4/13). Two scored, one missed and me and my best bud only saw hens. Had a great time and it was good to be with friends I hadn't seen since November. After the hunt I had to deal with fixing my trailer roof. Leaked through my antenna (its gone now!)...

    In-Stock Powder and Primers

    Nice but nearly 200 bucks for two pounds! I'll wait and see if any of the shops get some.

    Thanks Tom! Much appreciated. Between stuff here at home and needing a new roof on my camper I'm hoping for a nice heart stopping hunt!

    Cataract surgery

    Wilyote1, Wow! Thank you very much for the reply and insight. Found out yesterday, the cataract in my left eye is called a posterior subcapsular cataract (PSC) which is cloudiness in the back layer of your lens and the most difficult to remove. Not as common as others (figures) and can do a...

    Cataract surgery

    I am very glad you posted this! I had an eye exam and have been referred to the opthomoligist for pre-surgery screening on May 13th. I knew I had cataracts but my left eye had a sudden onset of blurry vision. I hope you heal quickly and your eyes end up with the best vision possible. If you are...

    Another d-mn issue primer size

    Thanks! Whew, i thought maybe I had posted something that would have given that impression. I agree those modules are beasts but thought as they are brass, the pockets would eventually wear. I was also thinking about getting some of the small rifle primer modules to see if they are any easier...

    Another d-mn issue primer size

    LBAhunter, you know based on my posts and questions I don't intend on shooting hot loads out of this Scout. Not sure how you got that impression but I have no intention of using "hot" loads in this gun. My only concern was primer loading in these modules was the hardest I have ever seen and I've...

    Best Powder/pellets for shotshell primers

    Accurate 5744 is a smokeless powder and should NEVER be used in a muzzleloader not rated for SMOKELESS powder. If you have a "regular" muzzleloader you are restricted to blackpowder, Pyrodex, Triple 7, and other BP substitutes and depending upon the ignition system one may not be able to use...

    Tungsten Turkey Ammo: Is It Worth It?

    Without TSS I wouldn't use my 410 for turkey. I don't use it my 3.5in 12 gauge. So to me, it has its applications.

    MK85 with a pitted bore, I could really use some advice.

    Sounds like it's ready to shoot!

    MK85 with a pitted bore, I could really use some advice.

    I say shoot it also. I have seen and bought (sadly) a lot worse that still shot pretty darn good. If inclined, you could search on here for the Lee Shaver method or just hit it with JB bore cleaner and polish along with some 0000 steel wool. I think Deermanok uses a green pad vice the steel and...

    Another d-mn issue primer size

    I'll have to check. I know he sells a bullet resizer. I sent him an email to see what advice he can give. I'll check his website too. Update: I checked his website and he sells a resizer for the ASG modules so they can be brought back to original specs and used with multiple muzzleloaders...
