I will look at it. I kinda recogmend that you don't start off shooting with a shotgun first. IF you were going to use one on big cats and wolf's the smallest gauge I would even begin to trust would be a 12 gauge, a 10 would be better. I would say you start of on a good quality .22 or .22mag...

OVM, What town in S. Dakota? Looking at the map I would have to live around Pierre or Mobridge. Looks like anywhere up and down that river. I need LOTS of water and S. Dakota looks like it is a bit water impared. At least compared to Michigan. Layoutshooter

Well, OVM, as of now I am stuck living in MI due to family concerns. Who knows what might happen in the future. I would have a range if it lived there. Layoutshooter

Sounds wonderful. I have often wanted to hunt birds up there. It is hard in this business. I take what time I can for hunting with family. Does not leave much time for other adventures. Layoutshooter

FedEx is a percentage company and for the most part the very special handling loads pay more than most other loads. We still take each offer as a seperate business decision. Sometimes cheap freight is what we need. Better than deadheading home or to a better area. Sometimes sitting and waiting...

Very good!!! Contact them and see if they have certified instructors. It is by far the best way to learn. I will take you up on staying up there, I seldom get up that way. It is way off our normal freight lanes. By the way, for varmits you might consider a .22/250, .22MAG, the M16 5.56 or any...

I think you most likely would enjoy the sport if you got into it. It is a shame that there is no formal training in the area. Not to put a knock on your relatives but not everyone that owns a firearm knows how to use it properly and not everyone who knows how to use one properly can teach...

Every "special handling" load I have taken has paid way above what a "bump and run" load would pay. I haul very few automotive type freight runs since the rate for that type of freight is of nomally way below what my minimum rate is. There are exceptions of course. I base acceptance or rejection...

By the way OVM, while the Safey course would be a very good idea for you it will not help you if you need to use it. There is only one way to be good with any firearem and that is to practice with it. If you don't do that your firearm will only give you a false sence of security. You will not be...

It is a waste. The hunting and fishing is WONDERFUL where I live. SE Michigan, 8 miles from the Ohio line, near Toledo. There is no better walleye (Pikerel for you Canadians) fishing anywhere in the world. Fantastic smallmouth and perch fishing. Not to mention the pan fish pike and muskie. I...

A shotgun for varmits? Nature does suck, all that wonderful wildlife messing things up. Why should a gun scare you? They are just tools. No more dangerous than any other mis-used tools. Shooting sports are called "disiplines". I used to be a firearms instructor for 4H. I taught kids between the...

The muzzle volocity is very impressive on the light round but a light round loses volocity much faster than a heavy round does. Layoutshooter

I have enough ammo. Layoutshooter

No, I don't think so OVM. Even my "CC" is smarter that Jennifer the "Witch". Michigan is living proof that Osama Obama's tax plan won't work. Those kind of taxes are in place in Michigan and we are enjoying a great one state recession. Layoutshooter

The time involed with loads like that, at least for us, has been very worth while. For the most part loads that require that kind of attention tend to be high value loads. High value loads tend to pay better than low value loads. There has been more than one shipper offer us pads. Most of the...

Remember that he is running on the Democratic Ticket. That means that he is a Jack *** too. Layoutshooter

What about a program for the totally useless, oh yea, we already have that. It is called the Senate. Layoutshooter

We would not expect extra pay for that load, but we are White Glove. We only carry 24 pads. On loads like that the shipper has always provided the pads. One shipper had the pads on the freight before we got there. New pads. They loaded us and told us that the pads were ours after we unload...

What kind of truck? I have a 2006 M112. I had that problelm. It was an alignment. I had it done once and it started to act funny right away. I had it done a second time. That guy told me that the truck was set up exactly to Freightliner specs. He said the only problem with that is Freightliner...

The company is dead wrong for some of thier actions and should be shut down. I am sure we could find a better bunch to run the place. Remember one thing, if the labor in that plant is made up of illegal aliens it is a criminal work force. They asked for it to a point. If you have no respect for...
