Used grumman 19 ft. Square stern. 10 hp motor. Either buy one down there or up here. Most dont want the old aluminum Grummans. I love them. Dont see the square sterns too often, but usually $500 or so

Re: Phil Shoemaker - A Bear Pistol Question:
Sitka deer

You can carry your 9. I got my education from John Linebaugh. I'll go with his results of the heaviest bullet at 12-1250 fps So a guy that been living with the bears for 45 years, numerous encounters per year, guiding clients with varying degrees of marksmanship, and killing an 800 lb grizzly at feet with a 147/9mm hard cast - and you arrive here? Ok..... I'd be curious if you ever shot your large bore, loaded warm hand cannon rapid fire at close range. You must be way better than most people I've seen do that drill. Hunting is not close range reaction at a moving target. I'll take lead on target vs alot of noise. Maybe muzzle blast will singe their lips closed? 800 lb BROWN bear - not a GRIZZLY 1250 fps is not warm - 1450 fps is. This isn't about hunting an unsuspecting animal it is about stopping a charge. I'll take big lead penetration over magazine capacity EVERY time. Send your 9mm/10mm pet load into the skull plate of a griz. Then we can talk penetration Having skinned the occasional bear head over a lot of years I made an amazing discovery! A bigger bear has a much heavier head! Having cut a lot of bone over those years, from lots of different critters an equally amazing fact showed up. Not all bone is equal. Some like caribou is very hard, fairly thin, but quite brittle. Mountain goat is thicker, less dense, and slightly softer. And I could go on about many others. Big bears are interesting because the bones are significantly softer, medium density, and extremely tough. I have posted a picture of an orange-handled knife on the opposite side of a cleaned (but wet) Kodiak bear scapula. It is thin enough to make out color... and shape. A betting man would put his money on a Yellowstone grizzly skull every time for putting up the least resistance to bullets... or lose a lot of money.

Re: Poland just did the UNTHINKABLE to Ukraine

Hopefully everyone involved in sending aid to Ukraine or aiding them in any way will get tired of bankrupting their own countries and will tell Blackrock and the central bankers we are opting out of breaking Russia. But you ate going to throw your life away for Israel? WTF? I have offered to go help. That is because of a deeply held belief. What about someone who is deeply afraid of Russia? Why is one dollar stolen and wasted while another is by the will of God? I might be a bit wrong but I think a dollar spent killin a murdering Orc is just as good as a dollar spent killin a murdering Jihadi. Is that not what the Good Book says? What book states that exactly

What are you wanting for the 257 100gr ballistic tips ?
I'm not going to banter back and forth via email.
Just publicly post prices of your items. The members will either like the price and they will sell. Or not like them and they don't sell.

Netanyahu is seriously a terrorist. They have killed so many innocent people. Im not quite sure why so many can just blindly support them without any care for what they do. There are now rumors flying around that netanyahu wanted to use a nuke over iran in the most recent exchange. He is insane and needs to be put down

Why that guy pulled out in front of us I can’t understand. He couldn’t see our way. You think he would have pull up carefully. But know! I pulled out in front my truck going 50 mph.
We thought we had killed him. He walked away !
