    Dang, his head popped!

    I set up a lower powered .25 (shooting JSB kings at 600fps) to use for removal of some of the chipmunk population around the property. I hit this one today at right around 25 yards, and could literally see his head explode (through the scope) when the pellet made impact. The pellet struck him...

    Good spring for Chipmunk's

    For the last few years Chipmunk populations around here have been very low. I know people kid me about being the cause, but I know it is more environmental - lack of food at times (due to weather), a robust Hawk population, and some other factors. Anyway, I watched the populations around here...

    box of 'gold' ;-)

    got this off the corner of my work bench - there is the better part 6 guns in this little box. Took me a few minutes to figure out what it was that I was working on when I left them sitting. Looks like there are 4 different styles of action (Bullpup, take down, reach forward trigger, and a...

    shop door view/Chippy down!

    this is the view I have from the shop door - this is just a piece of the bank that runs along the hill in front of the house. A chipmunk paradise if there ever was one. I have been scoping out this bank for enough years that I basically know the distance to every nook and cranny. Good for me...

    yep, Ground hog awoke to a 75ft/lb .30 head ache

    50 yards with the FX Bobcat seems a little like cheating ;-) . It took all of about ten seconds from the time I spotted the ground hog, till he was doing an eternal dirt nap.

    Found another piece to play with

    I started to get myself organized a little, putting stuff away. and cleaning a bit - in order to get the shop doors re-opened. One of the first things I found in the store room was this twin tube Bullpup action I started. The action itself is really already complete. Barreled in .22 using an...

    Love the sound of popping fur in the morning

    I was watching several different types of woodpeckers this morning. They were across the street from the house, working a section of trees that border a small creek, and a hill side. I saw several downy's, a red bellied, and even a pilliated a bit further up on the hill. Good thing I was...

    Planning on getting back into the shop

    will be another week or two before i plan on spending the better part of a real day out in the shop, but boy, is my head spinning thinking about all the things I want to play with! Been a LONG time! I have a hand full of old projects to finish off, which is where I will begin. In that, there...

    HaHaHa, They are mocking me ;-)

    If you don't know, I basically live out in the woods. Nice little lane and a half country road runs past the front of the house, but that is about it. Woods all around, hundreds of acres in the back, and thousands across the street. So, a few days ago, I watch this big, fat Fox Squirrel come...

    FX Bobcat walnut stock project: #4

    I have been working on several concepts to get a walnut stock on my FX Bobcat. I'm sure some of you already know all about it, but with the start of this new forum, thought I would take the opportunity to update the progress. This is the 4th concept that I have come up with - The actual...

    Gray Squirrel, say hello to .30 Bobcat

    This time of year brings them ALL out. Most will get a pass, as the season is well over. There is always those that decide my stuff is more interesting than their stuff - and they gotta go! I caught one coming off the roof after doing a number on a bird feeder I have hanging off the corner of...
