    My favorite game animals and no license ever required.😁

    I suspect you have to cook them low and slow, for a LONG time! Being a saltaholic, I speculate they'd benefit from a LOT of salt. .

    Introducing myself - asking for advice on a new airgun while I'm at it.

    N/A Got an accurate gun? 100 yard 5x5 challenge

    Can SIX consecutive five-shot groups enter? Yes, outdoors. Front and rear sandbags, lightweight wooden bench on a wooden deck. If I don't forget, I'll enter the .177 category next time the winds cooperate. Shoe-in for the Most Improbable Slug-Gun title- .

    new to guns, need purchase recommendations

    Since you'll only get one shot with each opportunity anyway, your best option is an Air Venturi Dragonfly MK 2 multi-stroke pneumatic in .22 caliber.

    "High End Airgun" Factory Tour

    The most amazing thing about that whole video is the fact that despite complete, utter, and utterly laughable lack of safety equipment of ANY kind, every employee retains two eyeballs and ten fingers...

    "High End Airgun" Factory Tour

    As I understand it, that's a multi-generational family business, originally founded by a guy named William Tell; carried on by his son Willy Tell, grandson Will Tell, and great grand-daughter Willshe Tell. Sign above the door? "Where there's a Will, there's a way!" :oops: .
