    Losing the squirrel war ...

    2019 = 178 2020 = 148 2021 = 129 2022 = 31 so far and counting So, I think that I'm winning the war but it takes time! I have a red cedar porch that squirrels would eat plum off the house if I let them, plus they chewed a hole into the attic once. Traps are too slow as they show up 3 or 4 at...

    30-Yard Challenge

    Not say anything about this current game it's fine just wanting to add about the group versus score thing. In my cast bullet shooting we have a target that we shoot five targets with five shots each for a score of 250 possible points. Then you measure each target group add them together and...

    Field target missouri

    Thanks for the reply sps3172, we have one person really interested and he said that he would buy the targets. But it will be a while before it would happen if ever, first off we would have to get permission from the club and it is a muzzle loader first club. No one that I know has ever been to a...

    When food is priority over danger

    I have a friend that used to take care of a golf course and he would do the same thing with deer but with a 22 rimfire. He said that they really didn't like being shot in the ear and would take off but eventually would come back. He had several that had been shot 4 or 5 times.

    Quality Concern for .22 JSB 18.13 gr Pellets

    5% weight variation is terrible for a projectile in the shooting world! I cast bullets for competition for myself 235 grains and if one is .3 light or heavy it goes into the practice pile. For a swaged pellet that weighs 18 grains and is .1 heavy or light is just unacceptable, I don't know what...

    Humane kill advice please

    Something that I found is to remove the red tip of the poly mags that leaves a nice big flat point with a hollow cavity in it, and they open up really well, even with a low powered .177 and no pass throughs as of yet which is important to me.

    Tuning Good tune FX Impact m3

    If you get a good tune for the 25.4's I would appreciate if you would post it here. I have the same gun and barrel so far I'm shooting the 18.1 really well but would like to try the 25.4's one of these days.

    Alternate scoring method - Like Golf

    This is a special side match usually held the day before the main event starts. It started out as the Quarter Bore Match which was for .25 cal single shot rifles which can be breech seated and shot at 100 yards. Well, the Single Shot guys were having so much fun with it that the rest of the...

    Alternate scoring method - Like Golf

    In the Cast Bullet Association we have a match where you shoot five shots at five targets for score for a total possible 250 points. And then, they measure each of the targets for group size add them together and subtract the total from the score. That makes for an interesting match, about half...

    Tuning Uragan air fill Probe O ring size?

    Anybody know what the "O" ring size is for the fill probe? I keep tearing the outside one and have found some at the local hardware store, but they don't last very long, too soft I think or maybe just a tad bit too big. RB

    Beeswax for Ballistics recipes?

    Being an old bullet lube maker for powder burners you could come up with a recipe that would not take a lot of beeswax. Maybe 25% beeswax, 75% lard, crisco, something cheap from the dollar store and melt in some cheap cooking oil. If that is too stiff add more cooking oil and some petroleum...

    Squirrel war still ongoing

    I know what you mean by quietly opening a window, when It's fairly warm I open and leave the storm window up so that I can quietly slide the inside window up when a shot presents itself. Like I did a minute ago, another one "f'ed"-up just before dark, my grand total for the year now stands at 2...
