    Packing out in waders sounds insanely swampy. Yeah in the research I’ve done about Moose hunting, calculating the meat pack out is basically priority 1 before going after a bull. Can they fully debone it in their area? Isn’t there an area where you can’t fully debone prior to transport?

    Nice! I can’t believe he’s in a carhartt - looks like it would get soaked through and cold fast!

    Something isn’t right with it, but it’s a quick detach model (so two sets of threads) and it also has a slight end cap strike (got a little loose running on a full auto gun). I don’t have time to figure it out at the moment, and it’s really too heavy to hunt with. I’ll probably look at a lightweight titanium unit for hunting for next year.

    In my case 686 is for one of my favorite pistols, the Smith and Wesson 686. Beretta 686 shotguns are very nice, too. I set up a steel target game ~30 yards off this patio and the kids have a lot of run “racing”against each other. My folks just renovated this ranch house west of Lampasas over the last 18 months, it is nice.

    I have a 870 Wingmaster built in 1964 and the action rings like a hammer on an anvil when you close it; its great. I hunt better with autoloaders, but the old 870 has never had a hiccup.

    How big is he? If he’s a “normal” sized 10yo the stocks on non-kid guns will be too long, and it will be hard for him to shoot. If you want to get him some good trigger time, I’d look at the Savage Rascal. Better action that the Cricket IMO, nice little package. This is my 9yo shooting it. Here she is trying to shoot my Chistensen Ranger, which is a really great 22, but as you can see, stock is too long:

    Dad got a new tree shear we did some work with it last weekend. Setting up two new spots. Have a decent 10 point on camera at this spot, but this will be a down year for us with the drought. Factory 300 WBY 200gr ELD-X is back in stock, so I got some practice in with my elk rifle and did some 400 and 500 yard work. I was going to try and hunt with my suppressor on this year, but I was having accuracy issues so abandoned that effort and went back to the muzzle brake and the groups tightened back up. Still have some work to get myself where I want to be accuracy wise. I’m having a harder time just keeping myself still and getting the crosshairs to calm down than I remember from past years. I think it’s harder for me to get to that mentally calm “zen” place. Too much feeling rushed/stressed, etc. Need to get it figured out in the next 3 weeks.

    I thought Girkin was just ranting as usual, but something seemed odd about the “pink ponies and unicorns” and then somebody re-posted this; it’s been out there for awhile, don’t know if he’s taking a veiled shot at Vlad or not.

    @solamente73 What are your plans for the meat / trophy; how did you transport back? I’d like to see a pic of those antlers sticking out of a truck bed if you have one! Did your friend hunt/tag out just along for the ride?

    Epic bull amigo!!! Congrats! Awesome shot placement and a 1 shot kill is really gratifying. All the practice and prep was totally with it, as you said, the muscle memory takes over when there’s a giant downrange. What a bull!

    I don’t know if Reservoir Dogs is a big deal in the Red Army, but all the bodies turning up without ears sounds like its due to Russian enhanced interrogation. I’ll take waterboarding, thank you.

    Well, looks like the police did pay a visit to the St. Pete duma members. They must all have 1st floor apartments as they only were fined and perhaps jailed for some time.

    Joke goes the other way. Why doesn’t Ukraine sink into the Black Sea? Because Russia Sucks.

    Old man forgot which scam they were running at the moment and called it a war.
  16. 686
    The St. Pete duma members were against the war from the beginning, so they haven’t changed their stance. I don’t know about the Moscow members that issued this second motion. My read wasn’t that they wanted to replace him with someone who would “win”, more that they probably know they aren’t going to win and want to stop the bleeding before the Red Army is completely gutted and the country potentially bankrupted. I’m no expert so I may be over optimistic.

    It’s like a Dave Chappelle sketch. You coudn’t have scripted it to be more awkward. The interesting thing is that now that things are really serious for them, they are talking less and less about nukes. The nuke threats are getting more and more veiled. Today it’s “why aren’t we bringing everything to the fight?”; when months ago they were showing mushroom clouds and tidal waves over Great Britain (yes and Ireland, but honestly, who cares about the Irish?) Anyway, now that it’s getting down to the nut-cuttin’ time on tactical nukes, it seems like they aren’t reaching for the football.

    Cooking dinner in the burning hull of your enemy’s armor is the most metal/Conan the Barbarian thing yet in this thread.

    Good stuff. You can hear the thousand yard stare in that guy’s voice. He had a nice dunk at the end: “and then the amazing spetznas left”.

    SIAP. Guessing the Russian had this video and was captured.

    Very consistent reporting that the Ukrainian diet is much better than the Russian diet. The looted chow is enough to call home over:

    People already sending the UA winter gear:

    “We keep seeking peace but they demand our defeat” is such a twisted statement, but it twists all the way around to what may be the truth at this point. I’m sure the Russians want to do a deal immediately to try and keep some territory, and Ukraine is demanding they GTFO. Russia needs to take the fucking loss and go home if (God willing) the UA is able to make it happen.

    I would imagine countries allied with Russia or that have been buying Russian arms are basically at this phase of viewership:
