When I worked in the woods I had the advantage of spotting deer most of the year. Some of them I hoped to see again in the fall when my dad came over to hunt. My father wasn't the best off hand shooter and I ended shooting most or all of the deer. He was getting up in years and not getting...

I have a Swiss B&S. A fine tool.

Sometimes Wilber would come across something he thought would interest shooters and talk about it. On his recommendation I bought a real nice shooting bag and think about him every time I use it. Wilber was a damn good man,

Most of you know I shoot Whistle Pigs ( Beldon's Ground Squirrel's) on a 1000 acre ranch here in Idaho. The ranch has been in the family since 1862 and has a ton of history. The ranch was much larger at one time but parcels have been sold off by previous generations to make it more...

This MK 4 is English with a German eyepiece . How common would that be? The MK4 was made for sniper and rifles for competition.

That might have been another of her concerns!

When I was in the Marine Corps qualifying at the range a red flag would be waved in front of your target if you missed. This flag was called "Maggies Drawers". There was spectulation as to what the original Maggie would have thought had she known her skivvies were being waved around at a rifle...

I was hunting pheasants with my springer when she busted a bird that was hiding in the grass under the snow. It dropped just a little ways offshore on the ice and off she went. When she picked up the bird they both broke thru the ice and her attempts to get back on the ice where going nowhere. I...

Great thread Al. Your photos and presentation make it interesting to read and learn more about the process. Mort

I like the new banner...great idea. Mort

Your efforts are greatly appreciated.

I cancelled my injections this morning thanks to you guys. Good company here. Mort

My x-ray showed bone on bone at the base of my thumb. On the positive side I don't have to load the dish washer anymore! Mort

There is a ton of advice here for improving your shooting but I have never seen anyone address flinching. I'm sure most people here don't but if you are in doubt here is a way to find out. When I was in boot camp qualifying your range instructor would sometimes hand you a M1 clip with a...

What the hell are people thinking? The government is on a crash course and I don't see anyone fixing anything soon. Mort

Working on cars. The 40 Ford was my last project. Working under the dash was a killer among other things. The 63 I sold and always regretted it, and that's why I got the 66. My son has it and he sold the 40 Ford for me. I had a lot of fun with the cars. As long as I can reload and shoot I'm a...

Thanks guys, can't tell you how much I appreciate your concern. Your advice was right on. I saw the doctor yesterday and when we went thru my pills Celebrex wasn't on the list. When or how it got dropped I don't know but I'm back on. I'm scheduled for injections in three weeks but if the pills...

I remember Mike and in our limited conversations there were no issues ,however he seemed to have a knack for getting crossways with some of folks here. After while no one would respond to his posts and he faded away. Mort

I am already taking Celebrex...will see the doctor soon. Thanks Mort

Thanks Al but I have been using Voltaren for some time and it doesn't do much any more. I even wear a wrist brace to minimize hand movement. I'm going to bite the bullet and try injections. I have had several in my neck but they never worked...I guess we will see. Mort
