This cartridge had been used in the M1 Carbine platform. I can see how effective it would be for short-range deer hunting. From a 16" barrel, a 230-grain Hollow Soft Point would "slam down" a hog or Whitetail deer rather quickly (125 yards at the maximum). Lightweight and quick handling. Any...

The Wildey is, again, in production. The .45 Winchester Magnum can be used anywhere the .44 Reminton Magnum is un use. I feel the 10" barreled Wildey would be excellent for deer/feral hog hunting. Placed in an AR-style platform with a 16" barrel would be suitable for a 100-125-yard "woods...

You can effectively use the cartridge in the Western Oregon Coast Range. Daddy relied on his Marlin 336 chambered in .35 Remington instead of the .30-30. In the Cascades and Eastern Oregon, he used his Reminton Autoloader in .30-.06. They worked well until the day he died 51 years ago. (He...

If I hunted hogs, my sister-in-law would definitely be in jeopardy.

That made my "willie" wilt! 😟 :eek:

I don't drink alcohol either. It doesn't take much to get my hackles up. I fought those bastards during the Vietnam War.

The upward muzzle flash as well as an enhanced muzzle blast are a definite drawback at night (when many self-defense shootings occur). This is why I am not fond of a compensated handgun. There are too many problems that accompany them. I carried a Glock Model 20 as an Armed Security Officer. I...

"There's not much in this world that can't be fixed, with $5000.00 and a 30-06."

No compensators. (At least not for me.)

I RESEMBLE THAT REMARK! :eek::rolleyes:

I saw my doctor at the VA. He told me that he had six cases of VD in the clinic... but he's all right now.

When you reach 70+, there are times you feel as if you are living at the corner of "Who Cares?" and "Why Bother?" When you are single, and your entire family has preceded you in death, sometimes it feels as if you do not matter. No real social life, and the world no longer cares to look. Life...

Don't drag my sister-in-law into this!

.32 Winchester Special, .35 Remington... Same church, different pew. PEW, PEW, PEW! ;) :)

I personally KNOW that squadron! They are a Returning Air Group (training) squadron that prepares personnel for sea duty with other VAQ (Electronic Warfare Aircraft) squadrons of identical configuration. You can bet the pilots involved are going to remain grounded until they can determine what...

You have that right! The F-18 Super Hornet airframe may be relatively common, but the electronic gear is extremely costly! The Navy will pay dearly to replace those jamming pods and other data-gathering equipment. This isn't good at all.

For your edification, that is spelled Rowland.

DAMN! VAQ-129 was MY outfit! We never had this problem with the EA6B "Prowler" (Grumman-manufactured) airframe subsonic aircraft. Someone "boned the pooch". I wouldn't want to be in their shoes when coming up before the Old Man. There will be a lot of 'splainin' to do! (Good luck with that.)

I believe he will die in obscurity. Most of the pieces of human ordure usually do. They are the "useful idiots" of the Socialist/Communist persuasion, and are as useful as a discarded cigarette filter. (He'll likely smell just as bad, too.) Good riddance to bad rubbish.
