I have a marlin ssv ,very accurate & is my go to squirrel gun when I might have a shot at yotes or other larger than squirrel critters. 3 shots less than 1" at 100y with cci . I normally hunt with Winchester hollow points as soft points are hard to find at times. fmj bullets are not legal to hunt with. im not sure if a game warden would ck my rimfire ammo but I wont take a chance  lol

if its like most parks hunting may be allowed but target shooting isn't, id look it up on the parks web site or call the local rangers, take a name if they give the ok in case somebody else has a problem with it

Cons: Overall Cost Frost-free freezers typically cost more to purchase than their traditional counterparts. In addition, frost-free models generally cost more to operate. Based on the U.S. Energy Information Administration's September 2013 report, one frost-free 15-cubic-foot freezer costing 12.5 cents per kilowatt hour will run you about $219 every year, while the equivalent manual defrost freezer only costs about $144 annually. A frost-free model costs more to operate because it uses a heater to melt ice crystals, a fan to circulate cold air and sensors to monitor for frost buildup.  

that uses 103 kilowatt-hours per month will cost about $14 a month to run. Small Chest Freezer By buying an Energy Star unit built between 2001 and 2008, you can cut your energy costs for that same small chest freezer by less than half per month. A chest freezer sized below 16.5 cubic feet costs $53 per year, using a total of 404 kilowatt-hours per year, or 34 kilowatt-hours per month. When you divide $53 by 12, your monthly costs equate to a little more than $4 per month. Quicken Loans - America's #1 Online Lender www.quickenloans.com 15 Yr.

Fixed at 3.875% 4.142% APR $1,176/mo disclaimer Energy-Efficient Models An energy-efficient large freezer with more than 25 cubic feet will use about 956 kilowatt-hours per year, according to EnergyStar.gov. That equates to about $10 a month. When you reduce the size of your freezer, your costs go down. Standard freezer sizes run between 19 cubic feet and 22 cubic feet. Monthly costs for these units average about $67 per year or a little over $5 a month.

Being in the fridge repair business for a long time I will take a chest freezer over a uprite any day of the week. less operating parts food lasts longer due to no defrost/heat let into the insides. when the door is open the cold stays in. Freezers put out less heat as a rule of thumb because they are opened less & will never put out more than a fridge. whirlpool would be my first pick. milk crates in a chest freezer makes it simple to keep stuff sorted out, less $ to run due no defrost . About 1.2 amps on the compressor on either type. 4-5 amps of defrost every 12 hrs of run time on frost free models. I like simple so stay away from electronics if you can,surge protectors when you cant

the limits shut the heating element off but not the whole dryer, id say timer is dropping out mtl... also the door switch is suspect also

x2 ,also having a smokeless mz made out of any 45/70 single shot rifle is the cats meow if you already have 1 in that caliber. for probly less than $150 to have it converted   luv my savage

I seen that forks of the river is loaded with sunflowers this year, it will be a awesome hunt if the weather & the harvest/bush hogging gets done properly there. don't forget to tell the newbies about the long hot hrs setting in the sun waiting for 12:00 to arrive then 5 minutes till folks move in about 25' from you :surrender:   .then no birds flying till about 6pm , been many times & will go many more even with all the down sides :up:

Marlin 795,short lite takes mags so no having to work the lever to unload. no need to buy barrels as most will shoot less than 1" at 50y. it all depends on how much $ you want to spend for accuracy & reliability

Juveniles under the age of eighteen (18) are prohibited from using handguns for the purpose of hunting. Straight from the hunting guide

I have never owned a rifle that shot all ammo the same,buy several weights & different brands & you will find what it likes then work on the rifle.ammo testing can be as expensive or as cheap as you want it to be.  

Who has the best prices for a complete upper & don't need target comp accuracy?  thanks

About the only time I do any hiking is during hunting season, during small game its a ruger 6 7/8" competition target 22 in stainless with the LCP in my pocket, big game I still carry the LCP

Why would we trust them while on duty but not when they are off duty? . Stuff happens & no one can stop any body from doing bad things,banning something has never stopped any thing Ever ! Sheepeople  thinking rules mean any thing to the bad guys only hurt the majority of law abiding folks that make up this great nation imo

I live in Anderson but work a lot in knox, bad thing about term limits is that the good gets thrown out as well as the bad, Some positions take time to acquire the skills to do a great job ,term limits might do better to put in a 1 cycle break then let them run again & stand on the performance of past terms, let folks see who has done the better job 

Looks like a reelection tactic to me, term limits will get him :)

Take plenty of shells, I take off opening day almost every year. I also make my own power line [URL=http://s261.photobucket.com/user/mike243/media/utf-8BSU1BRzAwOTUuanBn.jpg.html][/URL] its fun to watch dove try to land on it lol. its a lot of fun & take the kids too if you have any

Buckshot isn't legal for hunting in Tn, I would ck on some heavy shot or T shot being legal & how it patterns in your gun before you head out. we have a bigger problem with yotes than most of us know im afraid

Look at the weatherby line ,I bought a 20g semi 2 years ago & its a fine shooting shotgun. I got the synthetic stock because I hunt in any weather. The wood stocks get great reviews but I have not seen 1 in person.

nuf said !

I don't mind it,when I first started id separate all the leg muscles so it took forever,now I bone them out & slice into steaks,if small pieces fall off that's stew meat lol. I 1/4 my deer out & put in a spare fridge set very cold to firm it up, that way you can trim & make nice slices without the knife wandering all over & sliver skin is easier to deal with. When the cost was $30 to get 1 done I didn't mind it,when it hit $50 then $70 I just cant justify paying somebody for 30-60 minutes of work when I can do it.now jerky I cheat,grind season & squirt into the dehydrator .Its great knowing how your meat was handled & that it was yours & not somebody elses. 

the app was just released for the iphone very recent,they have had a site to ck in deer but the new app has a lot more stuff on it plus you get a email confirming deer was cked in, Have you received email with confirmation # on it ? 

its for apple products only but supposed to be ready for android use some time this month, I have to wait for them to make it & then the other hard part, getting something to ck in lol

RED333 my brother had a capnball pistol with a 12" barrel   & shooting a old Freon jug at 100y you tell it was slower than mine with a 8" ,any idea if the longer barrel slows it down or speeds it up? ,30g & round balls were our max loads & I know they make some with higher ratings
