    I think this is my best whitetail

    That’s a giant. Easily equals the biggest bucks we have here in Saskatchewan. I had no idea they could get that big in Virginia. Big congratulations!

    What are you reading?

    This is the stack currently on my nightstand. Working on the Wilbur Smith book at the moment. The two King books are rereads for me, the rest are first time. It’ll probably take me into January or February to get through them.

    Son's first deer rifle

    Very nice. One of the older guys that I grew up moose hunting with had one in .30-06 and I always thought it was the fanciest guns in camp!!!

    Short Action Elk Rifle

    I have shot a grand total of two elk, both with my 308. First one was a cow that dropped on the spot. The second was a 5x5 bull that hobbled 20 yards and stopped and I quickly shot him again and he dropped. I never had any doubts that it would do the job. That being said, I really want a 358 Win!

    270 Win

    My buddy’s wife shot this moose with her .270 with 150 grainers. Ran 30 yards, spun around in a circle and dropped. I have a lot of faith in it.

    Interesting. What has your wife written?

    What are you reading?

    I started with Armoured and Sentinel. I enjoyed them but I think The Gray Man series will be better judging by the first book. How did you get to know Mr. Greaney?

    What are you reading?

    We seem to think a lot alike between lever guns and books. I’ve read Timeline and Never Go Back. Just finished The Gray Man #1. And recently bought my first two Abercrombie books and will read The Blade Itself in the next month or two.

    Tattoos... advice from those so adorned

    The plastic surgery bothers me far more than the ink!

    What are you reading?

    I’ve read all of those and they are great. I’ve read the co-authored titles as well but don’t really think they added anything to the series. I’m just about to start Warlock in the Egypt series. Hopefully I’ll enjoy them as much as the Courtney’s and Ballantynes.
