I used to use CCI Supressor 22lr ammo for groundhogs in the backyard when we lived in town. Didn’t have a supressor on the gun, but still very quiet. They are a 45gr hollow point with stated velocity of 970 fps. Very accurate and groundhogs were DRT even on body shots, but I only shot out to...

I’ve been researching this exact thing for a year or so now, Robert. Using 30-06 and getting set for a trip out west this fall. I’ve landed on using Speer Impact 172gr bullet in my hand loads, but they are also available through Remington as loaded ammo. I also liked Federal Terminal Ascent...

I got a Bad Boy Elite a year ago to mow around home - mow around 2 acres. No complaints! My dad and brother both have Scag mowers, but I like the Bad Boy. I ran a Ferris at work for a few years as well. Price escalates quickly. Did the same as you - researched many and kept coming back to Bad...

Or Willamette - I’ve used them the last couple years with zero issue

It’s not on backwards, is it? 😬 Been there! Lol

Awesome report! We’ve gone copper as well after less than ideal showings with some of the cup & core. I shoot the Maker TRex 150 and my wife uses the Barnes 170 TSX. Very impressed with both!

Same over here, gwm. We took off work on Halloween to hunt the cold front and had that exact conversation the evening prior for where she could/should sit in the morning. She went against the recommendation. That morning’s results…. Told her I was done giving her any more tips and she’s on her...

Yes, they are usually later in the season to update and take orders. Last year was second week of December. I’ve been very happy with scion ordered from them. No issues and would recommend. Wish I could help with some pear varieties, but I’m in zone 5b/6a

What’s everyone’s blind guess?😂 I’m going with smartweed

I've had 5 of them out for a couple months. No complaints so far! These photos are on the 4MP setting.

I have a set of Husky Liner Weatherbeaters in the truck. No complaints at all. Would recommend at least giving them a look.

These three have been around the farm for most of the summer. Hopefully still hanging around the farm in two months.

Dry is right! We had a couple showers the first 4 days of May in NE Ohio, and then a quarter inch on the 20th. Nothing since and extended forecast is hot and dry for the next 2+ weeks. I feel like I spend all my free time watering plants at this point. Between 400+ potted apple trees, a garden...

The original daytime sworder! I was going to say in my first comment - whoever you went with, they owe the Stanczyk’s a bit of gratitude for figuring out the daytime sword fishery. Good stuff!

Congratulations SwampCat! Sword fishing is definitely an all or nothing sport. I lived in Tavernier/Islamorada for seven years, working as a mate on a few boats. Can I ask who you fished with? Daytime swordfishing has blown up and there are plenty of guys down there that know their stuff. Glad...
