Thanks, you live in the same town as OVM, do you know him? I wish I could live in an area like that. I have to stay in Michigan for the time being, family. My dad is still around. Doing well at almost 86. Still deer hunting. Who knows what the future my bring. Might end up there someday. I would...

Greg, anytime you need help with deer control let me know, I would be happy to assist you with that problem!!!! LOL The 10/22 is not a bad rifle, I own one. The Kimbers are really nice but pricey. I like the bolt action over the semi-autos, more accurate. A bit slower on a second shot but you...

Every time I lost my jobs when I was younger, in Michigan, I got another, sometimes two. At one point I was laid off from 3 jobs at the same time. When I could not find another job I moved to where I could. I always move or what ever. Those guys at the TA in Monroe are just lazy. I live in that...

The problem in our area is coyotes. Before we started expediting we had an older dog. She was VERY slow by that time and sick. We could not leave her outside on her own. We had to watch her every minute. Especiaslly early in the morning or late at night. She would have been an easy meal for a...

As to makes and models. If I don't have run over the weekend I will FORCE myself to find a sporting goods shop and look at a few. I will send a message to you with some suggestions in different price ranges. Layoutshooter

EVERY alien that came into this country by other than legal means IS a criminal. NO other word fits them. And I don't want to hear any whinning about my being anti-immigration or racist. I am only second generation here. My Mom and Dad where the first born in our family in this country. ALL my...

Ah, man messing with habbitat will do it. No reason the for the big cats not to eat the little ones. Maybe it's not only the Chinesse restaraunts that know what's good!!! LOL Yep, the .22 rifle would be my first choice for learning. Don't look at to cheap and no need to go to a olympic target...

Just more government interferance in business. Then people wonder why all the jobs are leaving the country. Layoutshooter

No way will that happen Greg. They seldom go after anyone but normal Americans. Layoutshooter

Odd behavior for wild animals. Was the one that attacked sick? Is there a shortage of rabbits etc? That is more thier normal food. We have VERY large black bear around our land in the PA mountians. In the 600lb class. PA have large bear in general. They take many a few in excess of 700lbs every...

You are correct, not to mention that you don't want to go deaf. Layoutshooter

For sure LDB, that is why I suggested starting off with a .22. A shotgun is just not the right thing for protection from dangerous animals. Too iffy. I don't like to see anyone start off on a shotgun, too much recoil. You could use a semi-auto 20 gauge, gas operated, not too bad on the recoil...

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...
