The pleated tail craze was supposed to push more fur up into the window. Was always a poor idea in my opinion.

When I see , or hear, of the 6.5 I think of the 6.5x284 Norma. Talk about a round ! Even out of a “16 Contender barrel it’s a hammer.

I acquired a few pounds of deer brains from a taxidermist about 15 yeats ago. Put them in a vented gallon glass jar and forgot about them. Last time I looked they were the consistency of pudding and had a nice mild, odor. About a half gallon of solids in the jar.

Not sure what I'll do with them.

What would be some good coyote lure additives at the 4 ounce level as I don't want to use the entire amount in just one mixture?

I don't know what brand my choke is, maybe Carlson's? It is a XX full I think.68 but might be.70. Regardless it is on a Mossberg 535 and with 3 1/2s it will upend turkeys out to 70 yards. I've shot 4s, 5s and 6s all at times, Remington Nitro, Winchester and Kent, whatever I could get, for about four years there I never seen a 3 1/2 in the store and I over the years I have bought whatever ammo was on the shelf. It seems to shoot them all well, I patterned it with one or two, but it has been a long time now. I did pattern it with some hand loaded 3 1/2 buckshot loads this year, and cutting the wood clear to the base produced much tighter patterns.

Why cant u get to the break in the dam? How far apart are the two ponds? Likely same beavers using both ponds.

I've never known beaver to make a dam breach.

I took the comments today along the lines of it now taking Iran 20 years to rebuild as a likely off ramp scenario. But who knows. And what does that mean for the shipping lane? My opinion is that in the end for Trump this was primarily about economic pressure on our real enemy over in Beijing. Damage to the puppets in the sand box played out as a calculated , short term and acceptable political risk here at home. Ultimately I believe the strategy would be to maintain some version of US control/influence over the shipping. Not a clue what that looks like but you'd think it has something to do with a coalition between the US and the other neighbors. Otherwise I see the potential for a real war scenario with China. Im afraid in this area we keep losing sight of the forest for the trees

Here’s a pretty good set I found some years back, it’s pushing 200”, the left side is one of the top five antlers I’ve ever found. I’ll share my pic here just in case Bernie B decides to try share it on his Facebook page again. Lol

X2, I liked it the way it was. That and the NIL and transfer crap has removed all desire for me to follow it anymore....
