    Where would the capital move to if DC becomes a state? By the Constitution, it cannot reside inside any state's boundaries. That is why the DC exists.

    CBL Debate Over, CBL Loses

    The conflation of these 2 is where the basis of the disagreement stems from; those who don't differentiate between canned executions and CBL hunts vs those that do. Dr Booyens, in the video posted by Tally Ho, very clearly separates canned as not just unethical, but totally illegal. But he sees...

    Have to ask, as I have never heard of a permit for grazing livestock; is this a permit to expand a feedlot you're referencing?

    Pay It Forward-Free

    Should be a little over 300 of these Remington .224 45gr HP in this bag. From my use & my formers boss, these don't like extreme velocity. In his 220 Swift at 4000fps, they often didn't find paper at 100yards. In my 14" TC at 2850-2900, they gave me 1/2" groups consistently. In my 23" barrel...

    Another Poor Man’s Double

    I'm on Chaszel's waiting list for a pair of 30-30 barrels for a 20ga. There's a Stoeger with double triggers sitting in the safe waiting for a chance to be used again. Hoping that they get them to me sometime this year.

    Colorado's POS in charge, sitting in the Guv'nor's seat, announced that CO is an abortion sanctuary after R v W was overturned. He is actually paying travel expenses for people to come here for the procedure. I think our legislature then opened up the timeframe so it can be done right up to...

    It just strikes me that you, and Trump, seem to completely miss the point that these other voters are completely fed up with Biden. They are votes to be had for a candidate that doesn't tell them, "I don't want your vote". Without those votes, Trump won't be reelected. I am not "anti" Trump, but...

    Rifle for daughter

    What, we're supposed to actually read what the question is now?!? That would really limit the number of posts the OP has to read to find an actual answer to his question. Btw, you're spot-on. Let the daughter use Grandpa's '06 that she likes and is used to. At 5'8", LOP should not be an issue...

    CBL Debate Over, CBL Loses

    Believe you are correct. I also think that recent change has been highly controversial as well. The backlash when they initially announced they were going to accept CBD (see what I did there? :A Too Cool:) animals into the books, forced the new category, IIRC. Don't know how they deal with...

    Threats to Hunting

    Ignorance. Primarily in the non-hunting/don't really care segment of the world population. This allows the emotional misinformation of the anti's to gain a foothold. But that ignorance invades the small percentage that hunts as well; leaving an even smaller percentage to make the arguments that...

    CBL Debate Over, CBL Loses

    I appreciate your position. And agree that a number of the CBL operators brought this upon themselves. A (rhetorical) question for me is, has the issue become a huge debate because we're talking about lions, not coyotes? There does seem to be a disparity, even among the anti's, between animals...

    CBL Debate Over, CBL Loses

    None of the books recognize any animals shot inside a high fence. Should those hunts be banned? To be clear, I differentiate between a canned hunt and a CBL hunt on a large enough property. What's large enough seems to be one of the questions that varies between individuals. I understand the...

    CBL Debate Over, CBL Loses

    When that happens, the poaching of wild lions will likely skyrocket. If the legal bone trade gets shut down, the buyers will look to illegal sources, just like the ivory & rhino horn trade. There are a number of bison ranches in the US that sell hunts on marginally sized acreage. When they...

    Another informational note on Permethrin. Don't use a milk jug to store it. Apparently it will break down the plastic in about a year's time. Ask me how I added that to my knowledge base....oh, and it will cause distortion on a pressboard shelf over that same time frame....

    Firearm insurance recommendations

    If you bought a rider through USAA, don't worry about the claims process. I've made claims (not for a firearm) through USAA and have nothing but positive things to say. I looked into their coverage for firearms, but don't like supplying a list of serial numbers, so didn't buy the coverage. I do...

    Not a surprise you got a little red with that mix. If the concentrate you have is 10%, your 1:4 mix is 5 times the recommended dilution of .5%. 10% concentrate should be mixed 1:20. If you have the really concentrated stuff at 38%, it needs to be mixed 1:75 to get a .5% solution. The stuff like...

    Is retiring to Africa a wise decision?

    Good advice. My brother is an expat living in Bonaire; about 10 years now. A lot of divers come there on vacation and have the thought of retirement on the island. My brother typically will advise them to first take an extended vacation, at least 6 months, preferably a year, to test drive island...
