    Ruger No 3 45/70 pickup

    Is that buttstock legit Ruger? I've never seen wood like that on a No. 3. Got a good pic of the end of the butt stock? TDF

    A nice surprise that I found

    I've found a few sheds doodling around in the woods over the years. Had an old boxer mutt that would drag them up into the yard to chew on, so got a few that way also. I bought a small 35 acre farm a few years back and the first winter I was wandering around back in the trees with the afore...

    Nice gun but what was it?

    Standard New Model Super that someone lopped two inches off the barrel, and added the stocks. In my opinion. TDF

    Grizzley 45 Colt +P 335 cast

    If you can shoot it accurately, that load will get the job done. In fact with a 335 cast at that speed, I say line up a bunch of hogs and see how many it will go through. I bet the number would surprise us both. TDF

    **Use caution dealing with OldIron13! Possible scammer!

    I wouldn't guarantee that that would screen out "ALL" scammers. Nothing says a guy can't have the gun in question in his possession and still be a lowlife that would scam someone. TDF

    Coyote excitement this morning

    Good shootin'. Used to have a similar dog that would go all out after a coyote, and we had some wild.....similar......stories. Missed a few, got a few, but always kept the coyotes honest. TDF

    .44 mag ammo for Whitetail

    Do you reload? Or are you limiting yourself to factory ammo? In my carbine I worked up a load with the 300 gr XTP, then proceeded to shot a young buck 3x3. Terrible angle. Went in the left shoulder, lungs, liver, stomach, etc, smashed rear femur and ended up just under the skin on the left...

    Which one of these loads for my 45 Lc deer hunting ?

    A lot of recoil with those latter two.......can you accurately shoot them. If so either would be great. The first load at 1000fps will be a lot more comfortable and will shoot lengthwise through a deer and get the job done. Shoot the one you and your gun shoot the most accurately. TDF

    Lipsey’s lightweight aluminum gripframe flattop 44 special!

    Not hard to change out a gripframe. Why not make one yourself? But I like the concept. I always wished Ruger would produce an aluminum version of the Bisley gripframe. TDF
