'Tis summer (at least in this hemisphere). Time to tap the trigger, and after, kill a keg. Or something like that...
Two interesting contributions from visitors to the 303 Page.
First, Black Powder in a 303? Well, they did it that way first, and while recipes are hard to find, Wayne sent a recipe (and a winning one to boot!) Congratulations Wayne!
Well, what about wood? Could I be talking about the classic Scandinavian Teak Chair to butt stock conversion? The famous Canadian sporter stock made using maple scraped from the heads of Libersal politicians? No, although the idea has merit.
How about Shiver Me Timbers. Lithgow Lumber for the SMLE. What the Aussies used to keep rifles from sinking in rough seas.
It's August and I'm suffering from the heat! I won't be undersold! No REASONABLE offer accepted!

Thanks Stephen;
That picture was taken near Silverwater Manitoulin Island.
My dog and I walked the perimeter of the small pond and it wasn`t until we went nearly full circle that this mallard jumped a good distance away from us.
I got on the call and continued to call as I watched the duck enter the stratosphere and disappear from my sight.
Less than a minute later the duck reappears and I call it down in front of us where I dust it`s ass and my lab makes a grade "A" retrieve.
Just another one of those days where you don`t think you`re going to see anything.
Having the pictures allows me to relive these hunts time and time again.
My black lab is gone now and I really miss him, he was an excellent duck dog.
I`m in the process of training another pup right now and I`m looking forward to dropping that first duck in front of him this September.
Is this your first hunting dog?

Braden, you're not taking into account the (lack of) receiver on your O/U. Add 6 inches of bolt for a S/A or pump and you've got quite a long gun.
I'm a O/U and S/S fan myself, particularly for rabbits and upland game. However, I went out and bought a 1300 pump w/28" bbl. because I won't shoot steel out of my doubles, and I refuse to pay exhorbitant prices for bismuth and composites.
What do you shoot in that old O/U?

Grunting works great for me. I've killed at least 3 deer with my xbow that I can definitly say were grunted in. One of my hunting parteners almost got mugged by a 6 pointer last year during the rifle hunt after blowing his grunt tube. No experience with rattling, so I can't give any advice in the department. As for types of grunt tubes, get one that can make a variety of calls (i.e. doe & fawn bleats, mature and immature bucks). Be careful with the mature buck call. I've seen it send smaller back running with thier tail between thier legs.

Took the wife and lab out to a park on Lake Superior tonight, there were about twentyfive people on the beach so we went down to the far end to work the dog.
The guy that manages the beach comes down and tells us not to get too far down the beach because he says there`s a huge black bear hanging around the park.He said it came out of the bush the other day, walked up to his car, jumped up and put it`s paws on the windshield.There goes my wife ...!
Another bear has taken up residence in a populated area on the east side of town.The police seem reluctant to shoot them this year because of all the criticism they faced from killing every bear they responded to last summer.

Try to take them after they have passed over your head and you can shoot after turning around, either that or coming straight into the decoys. You may find that a 22 inch barrel gives up a lot when your swinging on a bird, that is why most waterfowlers use a longer barreled gun, as far as velocitys and such, it won't make a difference, and who knows if your used to the short barrel you may do just fine. my favorite bird gun is an old winchester o/u with a 30 inch barrel. It swings very smoothly.

I use a 28" modified vent rib barrel with Rem choke on my 870 and shoot #2 steel for duck hunting over decoys on open water and field hunting.I like the 28" barrel on the 870.

In Reply to: Duck/Goose Gun posted by John on July 29, 2000 at 12:12:00:
Modern smokeless powders burn in the first 13 to 16 inches of the barrel and maximum velocities are obtained in the first 20 inches. Shot will carry the same distance regardless of the barrel length. Shot pattern will be the same whether the barrel is 21 inches in length or 30 inches in length, if the barrel has the same choke constriction.
Our experts state there would be a small variation in velocity when using a 21-inch barrel as compared with a 30-inch barrel; however, the variation would be immeasurable.
The basic advantage of a shorter barrel is that it will swing faster. The longer barrel gives the hunter a longer sight radius to be more precise, particularly when pass shooting waterfowl. Also, the longer barrel can often help balance certain shotguns better.
Posted by John on July 29, 2000 at 12:12:00:
I have a question for all of the knowledgeable hunters on the board. I just purchased a winchester 1300 shotgun (deer and turkey)with a 22 inch barrel. However, I would like to try duck/goose hunting this year.
Can I get away with a 22 inch gun? What kind of choke/shot size would be best with this gun?

The problem in Walkerton is from a particular strain of e-coli. We all have e-coli in our guts, as do deer, cattle and any number of animals. As I said, the problem there is this one type. This type is particularly dangerous to people. Other types of e-coli can make us sick, but this one can kill you. They believe it's present in about 10% of cattle, and is really no problem as far as eating the meat, as long as the cow was slaughtered in clean, sterile conditions (ie. none of the gut contents are allowed to contact the meat)
Clean your deer properly, and you should have no problem.

Didn't anybody tell these monkeys that the challenge by the province of C-68 was lost on the basis of jurisdiction of firearms. Thus I don't think the City of Toronto Councilor probably will not have the authority to institute an amnesty.
On that other side of things that I do know, everytime new legislation is passed an amnesty is provided for the disposal of "unwanted" firearms. The average response from people who don't know the law is the fear of the law and "out of my hands ASAP" not considering the potential of generating $$$$$.
Last year there was a six (6) month Federal Amnesty in place due to the coming into force of C-68. How many news agencies reported that last year or today?????
I think you hit it on the head with the re-election twist. The Provincial NDP enacted legislation to provide photo ID to purchase ammunition, because that's the only think "they" could do. The Feds. were getting all the attention from the upcoming C-68 and the Provincial boys "needed" to show they were doing something as well.
Why is it that when ever politicians step into this quagmare of ours they always seem to be chasing their tails.

They're budgeting $50,000 with hopes of getting 10,000 guns off the street. Fat chance. Any crook with an illegal weapon isn't going to part with it for 50 bucks. They also aren't going to worry about a PL or PAL (wouldn't our wonderful registration system weed them out anyway?)
It's just another publicity stunt by politicians who are only interested in BS'ing the significant segment of the population who can't think for themselves! Doesn't hurt that the amnesty program proposal comes to fruition just before the Municipal Elections either. Wanna bet that the biggest proponents of the amnesty will be the one's standing for re-election?

This what yer after? Monday 17 July 2000
Ignorance breeds sentimental view of bears
Al Dorans The Ottawa Citizen
The emotional sensationalism of the Citizen headline, "Bullets fly as Hull police gun down black bear" (July 13) suggests that police engaged in a wild shooting spree, instead of protecting the public as they did. The term "gun down" implies the cold-blooded killing of a defenseless creature. Such media bias must be curbed.
Bears are not cute, cuddly little teddy bears. They are dangerous carnivores at the top of the food chain. The family of Olympic biathlon shooter Mary Beth Cooper, who was mauled to death by a bear, knows this all too well.
Cambrian College of Applied Arts and Technology reported that in 1998, Sudbury had 15 nuisance bear calls. That number soared to 311 in 1999. For Sault Ste. Marie, the increase was from 28 to 67 in one year. In Bracebridge, nuisance bear calls rose from eight to 128. In Parry Sound, the increase went from 18 to 99. In North Bay, 14 nuisance-bear calls were reported in 1998, while 91 were recorded in 1999.
To overcome the lack of tolerance urbanites seem to have for this particularly rural problem, folks in Sudbury generated an idea that might win the empathy of city dwellers. They suggested that 22 hungry bears be captured in Sudbury, loaded on trucks and released in Queen's Park so that Torontonians might appreciate the Sudbury bear problem first hand.
Neighbour Heather Richardson described the police actions as a "wild shootout," and said they just "blew it away" and police should not have been "cowboys" about it.
Her suggestion was that the bear should have been relocated. Perhaps the ideal spot would have been Heather's backyard.

I bought a fairly cheap set insulated coveralls from Cabellas. They are made by Walls Clothing. These in combination with good layering are a good conbination. Even if its very cold but little wind, I am seldom cold. If it's very windy, raining or snowing hard I tend to stay out of my stan on those days anyway. These are not usually the most productive days for sitting in a stand. I believe the deer tend hold up on these days too.

I sit in heavy clothes but peel a few layers when it gets time to walk and hunt around 10:30am.I use toe warmers on the outside of my boots, wear a fleece hand warmer with heat pack around my waste and a good wool hat.I hunt the third week in November when it`s making ice and I can stay quiet and comfortable.

yes layering is good but even a outter shell of something water proff is better but how long are you really going to stay when it is that cold ???? when it is that cold we do alot of still hunting but the best thing in the stand is what is called isometricts(sp) you learn to flex your muscles this will keep you very warm and there is no movment involved with it hope this helps ps the best thing is a good pair of boots

I plan to be doing some deer hunting this year with my new Exomag bow and was thinkin about getting some warm camo for the long stints in the stand. Ive been to a few places and it looks like everything is either Gortex or Hydro-tech. The Gortex stuff was more than twice the price and Im just wondering if its really worth it? Do any of you guys find your self in a stand in December?? Can you get away with just good layering??

We will likely bring a pile of old donuts, syrup and honey for one bait site, but we have a line on an area that has had a lot of recent bear sightings in recently harvested areas. We are more interested in sitting on our buts watching cuts and shorelines as well as staking out berry patches than we are in sitting over a bait can. We are up for seven days, with 3 hunters so someone will be delegated to freshen the bait site and watch for bears daily while the other 2 hike around and try to walk one up. Whats your prefered method?

I inquired with someone who knew about the situation. Apparently in the spring turkey season of 99, the owner and a client were charged for shooting a turkey from a roadway, and also for illegally tagging the bird. Whoever shot the bird did not tag it, apparently another person did, which is illegal in turkey hunting because party hunting is not allowed. From what I was told, the bird was in the yard of someone's house and was shot from the roadway. The bird may have been shot originally and therefore wounded, but I again, I don't know for sure.

I personally have no problem with the enclosure type of hunting for exotics. No different then hunting on a pheasant farm. Any comments I made deal with him being charged by the MNR and convicted in court I believe, and how he has conducted some of his hunts and how he has dealt with landowners that have not given him permission to hunt on their property.
As I said, I have not dealt with him personally, but know and have spoke to quite a few people that have.

Gentlemen,
Lots of speculative rumours floating around this particular thread. I have hunted with and known Rob the owner of Woods and Water for 4 years. Firstly, the game farm he operates is fully licensed and legal in every way. The terrain where the hunting ranch is located is tough terrain. I have hunted his parcel for Grouse and the size of the enclosed area is huge. All exotic game purchased is through registered government bonded breeders and is COMPLETELY legal. The choice to hunt an animal in this fashion is completely legal the choice is yours , Rob gives you the area to hunt your game of choice in a challenging setting wether it be wild boar or farm bred mule deer. The operation is completely legal and the MNR has given its blessing after reviewing the property. I consider Rob a good friend and cannot sit by and let ignorant accusations and falsehoods about his business get printed on a forum such as this one. You may think this type of hunting is wrong or unfair but that is your opinion! Woods and Water operates in a legal manner and is run by one hell of a dedicated sportsmen!! Just thought I'd set the record straight,
Regards, WEST

To be honest Ild love a duck hunt where it just me, my decoys and waves upon waves of Mallards and Blacks coming in from all directions - eclipsing the sun as they cup over my spread!! In the big game catagory maybe Moose or Elk and I think it would be with a crossbow.

Cool pistol, Kern. What do think about them making it in a left hand action, for more rapid cycling for us right hand shooters? Kinda like feeding a magazine with the left hand while maintaining full grip with the right.
They were using S&W Model 29 stainless in 44 mag. One appeared to have the standard 8 1/2" bbl, while the other was a special production hunting pistol, with a 12" bbl and carrying sling. Both pistols were scoped. I don't recall them saying what power the scopes were, but unless it was some minimal magnification, like a 1.5X or 2.5X it would seem to me to be a problem at the short range (30 yds.) they were shooting. Personally, I think I'd prefer iron sights or maybe even an Aimpoint type sight, for that up close and personal type shooting. Though I think the S&W or Ruger Redhawk 44 would be equal choice of gun for me. I'd likely even use my old Ruger Blackhawk 44 mag, 10".
So, what's your dream hunt, Kern?

I know he hunted on a friend of mines property and pulled a real bonehead move. Also, was in the newspaper with regards to being charged by the MNR. He is the guy that all the talk over hunting exotics in an enclosure has been over in the past year.

Posted by Fischer on July 19, 2000 at 08:51:19:
Hey, everyone. I wrote below that my dream hunt would be to hunt wild boar with a handgun. Sunday night, on Advantage Outdoors, Wade Bourne did just that. They used cur dogs to locate the boars, which usually holed up in some palmetto bush. They then had to go in and chase the boar out into the open, hoping the dog could bay the boar again, in the open. There is a real possibility that the boar will take a run at you in this situation! Once in the open, it was very difficult to get a clear shot on the boar, because the dog was in there like a dirty shirt! Range was about 30 yards. Wade Bourne made it clear that this was a pretty tense hunt, and that he much preferred to use a .308 and keep some distance from his quarry.
Funny part of the show was when they captured a 200 lb. wild boar by hand! No tranquilizer, just grab a leg! It was a "mule-footed" boar, which is a descendant of the original pigs that the Spanish brought to America, but has a mule (horse) shaped hoof, instead of a cloven hoof. They wanted to relocate it to another island, to breed with some similar sows, in hopes of building up a population.
I taped the show and only had a chance to watch it last night. I'm glad I taped it, because I will be watching it again, for sure.
Anyway, I wanted to know what anybody else's dream hunt would be.

The high density deer areas would be the areas east of Sault Ste. Marie from Echo Bay eastward.
St.Joseph Island and Manitoulin Island have the highest concentrated deer population but both are primarily private land.

There are some wild pheasants around the Ottawa valley but they are few and far between. I am not sure but I think southern ontario may have some wild pheasants as well.

The thought of that would send this hunter into a deep deep hole. In short , the crossbows range is comparible to a conventional bows range.(20-30 yards) But a hunt is still a hunt. if you cant hunt and get into "bow range". even a crossbow will not do the job.

Not that I want to take sides here between Challenger & Winchester, but make sure you are comparing the same load. I find Remington packs large payloads - 1 7/8 oz on some of their steel loads, which will pattern nice but wont give you much range and fps @ the muzzle is lost as well. I look for loads in the 1 3/8 to 1 5/8 oz. as these usually give you the best muzzle velocities and as we all know with steel, the bottom line is speed kills. If you look at anyones HV Steel loads, they will all be 1 3/8 oz or smaller. BTW these sizes are all for 10 ga steel - not much help to 12 ga shooters but the same applies to the smaller gauges.

I too used the 3" #2's on ducks last year and found them a bit better on range than the winchester shells. I used 3 1/2" remington T shot on Canadas but will be trying the 3" BB Challengers this year on them.

I am going to do wet phone book tests to see results. I am only pushing them at a calculated velocity of 2650-2700fps. This is on the low spectrum as the max load I have listed at 3050fps or thereabouts. I'll let you know what happens.

I used 180 gr ballistics loaded to 2470 fps in my 30-06 almost exclusively between 1984 and 1991. I shot 11 deer and one moose with them during this period, and they always performed perfectly, with only 1 deer travelling as far as 70 yds from the point of impact - most dropping on the spot. I shot 2 more with this load last year, with similar results.
The only problem I had was one year, after reading a bunch of US propaganda, I tried 150 grainers. These bullets over penetrated because of the high velocity and (I believe) light weight that didn't allow the plunger tip to perform as designed. Both deer required lengthy tracking jobs, and one deer wasn't recovered.
My advice is to deep six the 150's, and use 180's with a reduced load.

I shot the Challenger load last year. 3" number 2's all season on ducks and geese. Shot the BB's on geese as well. The 2's patterened awesome through my Benelli with an I.C. choke. Very fast load, over 1450 fps. Speed is what you need now with steel. The faster it is, the more downrange energy you have, which relates to knockdown power.
Not sure if any of you guys have ever bought the "Supreme" shotgun shells from Canadian Tire. They were 13.99 for a box of twenty. Half way through the season they want down to 11.99 a box. Well if ya didn't, here is a tip for ya.............they're Challengers!!! The exact same load, but quite a bit cheaper. The only problem is that they are not making them for CTC anymore. I hit all the CTC's in my area and bought up all I could. Got about 4 flats now. Might want to look into it.

Never used them on Waterfowl. I patterned a box of 2's out of my gun and they shot terrible. That's not to say they won't shoot well out of the next gun. Best thing to do is get a box and pattern through your own gun and the decide. Good luck and good hunting.

I used 2 3/4, #4 steel shot last year for blue bills and I thought they were great. I didn't get many ducks, but that wasn't the shots fault. The shells performed flawlessly when I fired them. They're a good buy, they're cheap and it's a Canadian company. You'll like these shells, they're all I ever buy!

Hey Guys,
Thought I'd give Challenger steel loads a try this year, was wondering what you guys think of them. Anybody use them on a regular basis last year? How did they perform? Yardage and accuracy etc. I'm going to use mainly 3" for ducks and geese if they work out. Any comments or tips would be greatly apprecited!!!

We're working on getting the responses in a more timely manner. The problem has been twofold. 1), the volume of questions and 2), MNR staff being inundated with other work. Also, many of the questions being asked are not appropriate. I've now started to ignore these totally as it is just too time consuming to send email to someone suggesting they check local clubs or the district office for an answer to, say, "where is the best place for hunting groundhogs in the London area". We are behind about a month's worth of questions right now. I hope to have this backlog cleared shortly.

Just recently started visiting this site. Seems like a great hunting resource and will continue to drop in.
I had a question concerning the "Ask the CO" link. This is a fantastic idea and a great way to obtain information from our CO's on things that are not always covered, or clear in the regualtions. My question was, how often do they update this page? It is a great idea but not much good if the questions don't get answered. I don't believe the questions have been answered for several months now. Just curious whether I should give the local CO a call for my questions or wait.
Anyways, thanks for the great site and I look forward to spending more time here.

I have also dusted several crows with them out in the corn field back in the spring before the corn sprouted.....they just go poof in a big black cloud of feathers and several were almost blown in two ( our cat never had it so good).....my friend has a Remington 700 stainless Varmint Synthetic in .220 Swift and he's going to get some V-max to try .

Well funny you should ask, ...... I just started using the 95gr. Hornady VMax for ground hogs. What performance !!!! I have taken four with these rounds and have been impressed so , that I'm thinking of writing the company.
One was a chest and shoulder shot. Kind of hard to distinguish due to the damage. Effectively severed the shoulder. The other three were head shots two standing and one in the borrow. The ballistic performance on the head is incredable. (you know the old saying, "this your brain on drugs" ? well I have a new saying, "this is your brain on grass" ) Yes I'm being graffic, but the performance is very graffic.
If a bullet is ever able to ""explode" (with out having a secondary charge - artillery) then this is it. The velocity & resistance driving that polymertip into the bullet which causes the rapid expansion does give the appearance of explosion.
That said , ... I'm not sure if I'd want to use it on a "game" animal for the freezer. The performance should "take" the game but I'm wondereing out loud if there might be too much destroyed meat.
(don't worry, no ground hogs were harmed in the usage of these VMax. - they didn't feel a thing)

You'll recall a couple of weeks ago I posted a question about whether paint-ball guns which fire over 500 fps would need to be registered, restricted or prohibited. Here is the (non)answer from CFS. I guess the first paragraph answers it, but not very clearly, and doesn't indicate whether CFS is actually going to actively begin a campaign to register these "firearms".
RESPONSE TO ENQUIRY : Thank you for your request for information. Air guns that fire at a muzzle velocity of over 500 feet per second are considered firearms and as such they must be registered and a licence is required to possess or acquire them.
If the devices are designed, altered or intented to be discharged with the use of one hand, they are handguns and therefore restricted firearms. In the event that the air guns in question fire under 500 feet per second, you may wish to know that some low velocity air guns are considered replica firearms and as such are prohibited devices. A replica is a device that looks like a firearm but does not meet the definition of a firearm. In the case of airsoft guns, they will not meet the definition of a firearm if they are unable to cause serious bodily injury or death. Airsoft guns that either do not look like firearms or are able to cause serious bodily injury or death are not prohibited.
I hope the above is of assistance to you. You may also wish to review our fact sheet on Air guns in the information for owners and users section on our web site at www.cfc.gc.ca Julie Besner

Personally I think that you are city raised and never had to starve for a month in your life.To sit in a tree stand over top of a baitstation is cruel and unsporting.
When you have to go out for days scouting for tracks then going threw the long hours of the hunt with your dogs you would realize that you have a better appreaciation for the annimal that was bagged.Like the old saying goes,one dog is as good as twenty.So it doesn't really matter what one persons nieve opinion is of hunting with hounds until you've done it.

Last night I made a trip to a dump near Harcourt Ontario. Mr Bear, I'd guess about 150 -200 lbs Male was
there. I stepped out, he backed of to about 40 ft. I started to unload, keeping one eye on the bruin. As i worked
away, he seemed content feeding on garbage, and I wasn't unloading food, so I let down my guard.
I turned to find him less than 20 ft away, again feeding on garbage. I figured that was a little too close so I hollered
at him, and he backed off to 40 ft again.
I worked around to the other side of my trailer unloading, Looked up, and he's 5 feet from the drivers door of my
jeep (oops! no retreat) I scooped up a handfull of old lava rocks, and nailed him solidly in the head with one. He
rubbed his face a couple of times and ignored me!
I just waited him out, unloading around him. When I was done, he was well away from my exit, and I did. This is the making of a problem bear! He has little or no fear of humans, and is still a very young bear, he hasn't
developed that omnipotent male bear swager or size just yet. Ontario Government where is the spring bear hunt??? Will it take someone getting killed?

Just to expand upon what Kern said about using Bismuth in a full choke to hunt waterfowl, lead shot can no longer be used to hunt waterfowl. Steel and Bismuth are the 2 leading alternatives, however, steel shot is very hard (Bismuth is more like lead) and won't compress when travelling through a full choke. As a result, you may get poor patterns or, worse, damage to your choke/barrel. Also, about waterfowl, I'm pretty sure that under the Migratory Game Birds Act you cannot hunt waterfowl with a .22 (and you would not want to use a .410). Shotguns only!

In Reply to: What can I hunt? posted by Outdoorsman on June 25, 2000 at 11:59:33:
You can hunt almost anything with the guns you have, you just have to make every shot count as they are all single shots.
The 22/410 would make a nice rabbit and grouse gun. If your 12 ga is a fixed full choke, you would have to use Bismuth if
you want to shoot ducks and geese. The 12 can also be used on deer.

If you're going to install a sling swivel in your butt stock, start with a very small pilot hole, and, if possible, re-drill it once or twice more with a little larger bits, till you get to the size of your swivel screw. Put some bar soap or similar lubricant on the screw and tighten it in CAREFULLY! Depending on the grain in the stock, you could very easily split a piece off the bottom if you just drill it once and try to screw the swivel straight in. It's very hard wood and there is a lot of tension in the grain.

Usually the mainstream media paints firearms owners in the camo-clad Billy-Bob Jethro mold as a bunch of wild eyed zealots. The Sun has been stressing the fact that gun control won't stop criminals for years now. We can only hope that the message will somehow get through one day. Again - well done.

I'm curious as to what the biggest deer each of the posters on this board has seen in the past year. Personally the largest deer I saw in the past year was a hefty 8 point in late December that would likely score near the Pope and Young minimum (WMU 59 near Arnprior). I've seen the same deer again this year and hope to spot him with bow in hand come October.

The question was already asked on the Excalibur website. Bill's response was the compound limb was an attempt to crack the U.S. market. Seems that many American crossbowers find it impossible to believe that a recurve limb could perform as well as compound limb.
My opinion is simpler is still better. I can change a string on my Excalibur in less than 5 min. and the 275 ft/sec has always given me lots of power for complete pass through shots and even to crack bone. I'd stick with the Exomag or Exocet.

While turkey hunting I encountered the same buck several times. Even at the end of April he already had 8 inces of growth topped by a knuckle that I presume is where the antler was about to branch. The buck did not appear to be huge in body size. I am guessing maybe about a 3 year old. I do think he had a lot of antler development for that early in the season. I expect maybe an easy winter and early spring will combine to produce some good racks this year.

Forgot that it changes every day
RE THE Gillian Hadley murder-suicide: How unfortunate that the first reaction of politicians like Jack Layton to this tragedy is to call for more gun control. Anyone who takes a clear look at this incident can see that gun control did not protect Gillian Hadley. A few years ago, the best friend of a co-worker was killed by her estranged husband, who then killed himself. He stabbed her to death, then asphyxiated himself with his car. Like Hadley, he had been under restraining orders, and was charged with assault and threatening prior to the murder/suicide. Yet it hardly made the news outside the city where it happened. There was no outcry from the Jack Laytons of the world, calling for more knife control, or criminal record checks for vehicle owners. Maybe, because the killer didn't use a gun, there was no benefit to politicians of that ilk. There is talk of an inquest into this tragedy. I, for one, welcome it. I hope that the inquest will focus on why gun control didn't save Gillian Hadley. Focus on why, with handgun registration being mandatory for over 60 years, Ralph Hadley was able to get one - illegally. Of course, the answers to these questions are simple, because criminals don't register their guns. The toughest question that the inquest should be asked is, why do our elected officials continue to focus on the methods, the tools, rather than the reasons behind the violence in the first place? Shot, stabbed, strangled, beaten or poisoned, Gillian Hadley and others like her are still just as dead. Let's focus on why it happened, how it happened, instead of the device used to accomplish it. Martin Fischer Kitchener (Yes, let's take the focus off guns and gun control, which - no matter what your views on that - is NOT what this tragedy is about)

I have been scouting a large buck nearby my home for the past two weeks. It is making regular visits to cropfields in the area and I have been able to get several excellent looks at it. I am wondering if the potential size of the rack can be judged by the amount of growth that has occurred all ready. The buck already has several inches of antler, well past its ears.
Posted by Kern on June 21, 2000 at 22:34:47:
I was all set to go get my new exomag when the sales guy asked me if I seen the new Excalibur...the Paradox. Its a split limb compound cross bow. Its suppose to spit out shafts at 330+ fps. After reading all the hype about "not needing wheels to fly" I find it strange that they come out with a compound. Jennings was involved with the design of the bow, or at least the limbs. The rest of the bow is all Excalibur in looks and feel.
Jennings also has the bow in their line up under the name Buckmaster Max Point. Now Im not sure which one to get. The paradox's shorter limbs makes it easier to carry through the bush, but the Exomag looks alot easier to restring should you ever have to do one in the bush.
Any thoughts??? Thanks

Hi Leon, where did you come in from?? Here in "southern ontario" there is a very nice variety of terrain. The northern portion of "southern ontario" even has some northern charactoristicts. (the Canadian Shield with little lakes) Crown land down here is not very numerous, but there are small. Thus yes it can be dangerous. Be sure you pickup the Ontario Hunting Regulations and see the areas that have those shotgun only. You will have to apply to the specific area you wish to get a tag. I must say, it will be pretty tough to get out your first year unless of course you hook in with an established group. Good Luck and welcome, Tack

I have a Drop Zone on my Exocet and the range feature seems to work OK out to about 30 yards where it will hold 3 arrows in about a 4-6 inch circle most of the time. I agree with the others and would not take a shot over 30 yards and if I ever did take a 30 yard shot it would have to be at a stationary animal with a clear broadside shot.Overall I like the scope for its light gathering ability more than the rangefinding feature ( I have a Bushnell Yardage Pro anyway),but I killed a few deer with just the pin sights on this bow and didn't feel handicapped in the least before I got the scope. Trajectory would be slightly improved with the Exomag as the Exocet runs only around 275 fps....the Exomag was not available when I bought my bow a few years ago......TDC

Good comment Roho. A lot of hunters think crossbows are good for 50, 60 or 70 yards but you hit the nail right on the head. Sure, they're fast off the shelf but the bolts are so light that velocity and energy fades very quickly. Same with the overdraw compound bows. They shoot short, light arrows at high speed but the speed falls off fairly quickly. I shoot a 62 pound compound with 33 inch 2219 arrows. I've had it checked on a chronograph at around 200 fps, but it holds it's energy very well. Even at that, I start to spray 'em after 30 yards so that's my max as well. 20 yds is better and the last two deer I got were under 15.
Good hunting.

I have owned an excalibur for 5 years and can,t say enough good things about them,as far as drop zone scopes i don,t care for them, too cluttered in low light,set my plain scope at 20yds and compensate by eye, but know your yds before you have to shoot.As far as effective range you lose alot of energy after 30, i set that as my personal max.

Hunting w/hounds has been a part of my family's deer hunting heritage for at least three gen-erations. Recently the Arkansas Game/Fish Com-mission banned the use of deer hounds in the north/parts of eastern Arkansas.Am sad to say; that opposition to deer hunting w/hounds,has been building momentum for a long time and the many including myself who long to hear the sound of a good pack of hounds;have failed to voice any oppositon to this.I would have pretty good argue- ment against those who say that deer hunting with hounds actually harms the deer population. I do concede that some slob houndmen may cause prob-lems by trespassing or vandalism; but these in-cidents when compared with the number of similar incidents caused by other types of Deer hunters;
would be small.
It seems we are on the brink of losing an ancient
tradition. Honestly when compared to my better
deer hunting success when not using hounds,it would seem that I would want to get rid of them
too; but such is not the case. There are some
hunting traditions such as deer hunting w/hounds, that are worth protecting for the simple reason
that these are in fact traditions passed to us by
our ancestors. Such traditions need to be kept alive and honored. There is strength in numbers;
so lets let our voices be heard like those of
of a good pack of hounds on a cold crisp morning.

I think the drop in fees they are proposing will only apply to the possession licence. It went from $10 to $45 last December. You can only get it once, by the end of this year, and in 5 years, you'll have to have a PAL. If they drop the fees on the PAL, I'll damn well be demanding a refund!! Personally, I think the intent of the possession licence is simply to get everyone who HAS a gun to register themselves. Then, if the registration of the firearms themselves doesn't materialize properly by 2003, they'll just have everyone's name, to they can send the jackbooters in. Cynical? Sure, but this decision today just upped the ante.

Posted by stephen on June 15, 2000 at 12:28:33:
Canada's highest court has upheld the federal gun control law. Alberta was challenging the law. It requires licensing and registering of
all firearms. Alberta says that steps on provincial authority over property
as set out in the Constitution. Five other provinces and two territories supported Alberta's
challenge to Bill C-68. They say the law is unworkable.
Saskatchewan Premier Roy Romanow, who backs Alberta's
challenge, says he's also concerned about the cost and red
tape that comes with implementing the law. The gun registry that has been set up to keep track of the seven million
guns in the country is expected to cost about $125 million in the first
five years. Only 1.6 million guns are registered in this country. Justice Minister Anne McLellan is expected to make changes to the
law to make it easier for gun owners to register. She will cut the
$45 license fee to $10 and she will streamline the registration form to
one page. Bill C-68 has provoked much disagreement and defiance from
hunters and gun owners. Some fear the law may lead to confiscation of
their guns. Others are angered by high licensing fees and slow
paperwork. Dave Hancock, Alberta's justice minister, says the court ruling won't
change his government's stand. "We don't have to participate in it," Hancock says. "We are not
participating in it. They can carry it out without our agreement."

I suspect they may have to amend the law to consider these guns that shoot projectiles not likely to kill someone even at 550+ fps. Mind you Ive never heard of one of those guns running at 6000 psi! Thats got to do some damage on unprotected skin. If they do include them as regular fire arms It may spell the end to the sport. Who's is going to go through all the fuss to register a restricted possibly prohibited weapon to play paint ball?? Not to mention the storage and transportation guidlines you would have to follow as well.
What may happen is the high performance paint guns will be illegal in Canada!! Im sure we will all feel safer at night knowing that criminals wont have easy access to these weapons :)
Shouldnt be long before we have to register the super soakers!!

I am a paintball player, I love it! It's like
hunting but only your being hunted too! Anyways
i don't know what class they fall under but i can
tell you they are capable of firingup to 15 balls
a second, FULL AUTO! They also can fire 3 shot
bursts, a gun that can fire full and 3 shot burst
will cost nearly $2000 but you can still buy them.
Using a nitrogen tank instead of CO2, they
could reach speeds of over 500fps. You can buy
any size barrel for any paintball gun out there,
you can even fire them without a barrel, but i
wouldn't worry about 500fps with no barrel.

Posted by Fischer on June 14, 2000 at 13:53:58:
Was having a conversation with a buddy who is into the paint-ball gun scene (I am not). He wanted to know whether the new generation of paint-ball guns, which shoot 550 fps, would fall under the Firearms Act. I asked the other day while at a gun shop, and was told that they likely would (anything that shoots a projectile over 500 fps, is covered, as in some pellet rifles). On top of that, IMHO, the compact size and barrel length of many of the paint-ball guns would render them restricted firearms. Some of these are virtually full-auto, which would then bring them into the prohibited weapons category (I'm told). The guy at the gunshop didn't believe that there were any paint-ball guns being made that could produce that velocity. However, my buddy says that they are compressed air guns, using 6000 psi to fire a 68 cal. paint ball - OUCH! CO2 can't do this, because at that pressure, the CO2 just stays liquid and would freeze the ball, causing it to shatter as it left the barrel. Just wonder what you all think of this, and whether the feds had considered any of this when they dreamed this scheme up???

The final report of the recent inquiry into hunting with hounds was filed on Sunday. You can read the whole report here:
http://www.huntinginquiry.gov.uk/mainsections/report.pdf It does take a while to load. I haven't had a chance to read it all, but from what I know of the report, it essentially says that hunting with hounds is no better or worse than shooting, trapping, poisoning, drowning or any other methods of vermin control, and recognises that, at this point in time, vermin control is a necessary part of wildlife management. In short, the report has basically taken a major AR propaganda effort and flattened is thinner than a superhighway squirrel. Oh Dear, what will the anti's do now?? :) It'll be interesting to see if Tony Blair has the guts to implement a ban on hunting despite his own inquiry, in the interest of cheap political opportunism.

I have a garmin 12 XL that I bought in 2 years ago also. I really like it. About a month ago they upped the accuracy on the GPS sattelites. To make a long story short, GPS used to be able to locate within about 100 ft, now it is more like 20 ft, quite an improvement. When I bought my Garmin two years ago, the GPS units with maps built in were not that good. The maps only showed the major highways and not much else. I recently checked out the Garmin web site to see what they had come up with in the last two years. They now have a model called the GPS12 MAP, which looks and works a lot like my GPS12XL, except it has a halfway decent map built in. It is only slightly more detailed than the maps of two years ago. Here is the big change - you can buy EXTREMELY detailed maps that showw all logging roads, marshes, rivers, creeks etc. to download into the GPS unit from Garmin. I am not familiar with how the Canadian government has set up its topographical maps, but here in the US (I live in northern Minnesota) we have what we call USGS topographical maps that the government sells. Garmin took these and put them on a disk that you can buy and download portions into your GPS12 MAP. They have navagation maps, aviation maps and all sorts of other maps you can buy. I am thinking about selling my GPS12 XL and getting a GPS 12 MAP. I would strongly suggest you go to the Garmin site www.garmin.com and check out the GPS12 MAP. They have a place on their site where you can see what kind of maps you can get to download into your GPS12 MAP and even let you preveiw them. It is really neat!

with a 24", or use the 30 if you prefer. If it
where my cash I'd go 24".

I agree, yes the 30" barrel is a better sighting plane and the extra weight up front allows for better follow through on ducks etc. the 24" is probably the best.

In Reply to: Re: Barrel length advise needed posted by Chuck on June 09, 2000 at 10:00:41:
I'm thinking it probably goes both ways. There has to be a reason for the 30" barrels, and up to 36" on some of the older shotguns. For one thing, the longer barrel is going to give you a little better sightline than a short barrel, so the longer shots you might make for ducks and geese are easier to sight. (I know, your pointing). I'm not a trap or skeet shooter, but obviously there is some reason why skeet guns are shorter, with wider choke than trap guns. If it was me in this situation, I'd opt for the 24" barrel. He's already got a 30" which can be used for ducks and geese, but the short barrel will allow for quicker swinging on rabbits and upland birds. At the range you are shooting them, the difference in velocity from the barrel length wouldn't make any difference.

In Reply to: Re: Barrel length advise needed posted by Kevin on June 08, 2000 at 14:56:36:
I was under the impression that the longer the barrel the greater the velocity had to due with the old black powder shells. Since the advent of smokeless powder barrel length not such an issue as the difference between a 24" and 30" is negligible. This was why you used to see some old guns with a 36" barrel.I beleive I read this in one of Jim Carmichael's. My apologies if this is incorrect.

In Reply to: Bear on Scugog Island posted by Steve on June 08, 2000 at 12:44:43:
Check this one out : Bear sighting creates concern near Varty Lake
Sue Yanagisawa There are three bears in the woods at the north end of Varty Lake, but that's not the problem as far as Shane Day is concerned. He says the problem is people in the area, roughly 40 kilometres northwest of Kingston, including visitors to a campground down the road, don't know the bears are there. Day, who works at DuPont, has lived on a 30-acre piece of property fronting on Park Road for the past three years. He's seen many deer in the area. He's also seen what he believes are wolves in the fields behind his house. But Day hadn't seen a bear in some time - until last Saturday, that is, when he encountered three of them. He came upon a sow and two cubs about four months old in the pine woods at the bottom of about 15 acres of hay fields. The cubs were only about "a foot and a half long," he recalled and "about as big around as an ice cream pail." Their mother looked thin, but Day estimated her weight at about 90 kilograms. Day said he's gotten into the habit of moving quietly in hopes of coming upon deer and other animals on his walks. He was about 45 to 60 metres into the pines when he saw the bears. "I looked up and here were these two little cubs coming at me," Day said. The next thing he saw was mama bear coming up fast behind them, making a noise. Day didn't wait around to see what would happen. "I was on the other side of the cubs," he said. "She put the run on me, but she never came out. "I ran and never looked back until the middle of the field. She didn't come out of the woods." Day believes he may have seen bear signs last year. He recalls noticing boulders overturned and occasional bones among the pines. The area also has plenty of berries in season and apple trees and there's lots of good tree cover. His next-door neighbour has a stand of hardwoods and the pines at the back of his own land are about 10 metres tall and stagger planted, providing good cover for wildlife. There's also marshland and a couple of dumps in the vicinity. He wonders why the bears are there and whether they'll be a problem. He's already decided to make the hay fields off-limits to his children and his partner's children and he's warned his immediate neighbours. One of his co-workers has a theory that the cancellation of the spring bear hunt has left too many boar bears alive and they're hunting the cubs to bring the sows back into heat, which the theory credits with driving the females south. Day is skeptical, but he's run into others since his encounter who've told him about solitary bear sightings in the Enterprise area and near Verona. "I'm not a hunter," Day said, but he is concerned that there may be more encounters between bears and people, particularly area children.

Jennings makes an excellent crossbow. I worked in an archery shop for a number of years and could not get over the accuracy of that crossbow. It is so accurate because the bolt is nocked directly to the string and it uses an arrow rest rather than a track. It is absolutely devastating.

I'm ordering a new barrel for my Mossberg 500 and I'm sort of torn between the 28" and the 24"
(no 26" offered). The reason I would like a new barrel is that currently it is a 30" plain barrel with
fixed mod. choke. As this is great for waterfowling I find it kinda long for grouse & hares. As
well I like the idea of the vent rib & screw in chokes. I split my time between being in the blind
and in the uplands. I was leaning towards the 24" as I could always keep using the 30" if I find
the 24" a little short in the blind. As well the 24" would be great for grouse and hare as well
possibly turkey's and deer if needed. On the other hand the 28" is a good all around length that is
offered on most 12g today. A new shotgun at this time is not in my plans (or should I say my
wife's plans). Any suggestions?

To think like that you must be new to the net or incredibly nieve. With a simple program I downloaded from the net, I was able to trace this person to San Hose Californis(not Texas as he claimed). Let me clarify...his internet provider is in San Hose : NETCOM On-Line Communication Services, Inc. ,3031 Tisch Way, Lobby Level, San Jose, CA 95128. 408-579-5000 I would love to beable to give you guys a personal email address but Im not that good ,so you will have to settle for the Coordinator of his service provider: steve_chang@icgcomm.com Many service providers have strict rules of conduct for its subscribers, Im sure this idiot crossed the line a few times. Everyone please feel free to email Steve Chang and let him know what you think of the behaviour of this idiot. Remember, Steve is only an admin. so please be polite and professional. The IP, date and time are 198.211.199.103 3:35pm eastern time, June 3rd,2000. This must be included in your email as it is the idiots "finger prints".
Sorry, but this is the only ip and date I recorded, if this guy needs more info, Im sure Andy can supply it. Infact Im betting Andy has already contacted NETCOM On-Line concerning this issue. One last comment...Im not one to stick my head in the sand and hope the problem goes away but these kind of A**holes get off on makin trouble and pulling your chain. Since you cant put them in your cross hairs, the alternative is to completely ignor their posts and notify their service provider or the sysop running the site that they are trying to disrupt.

Stephen, I started phoning once a week after the 28 day waiting period. I got mine back in 2 months to the day, including the time required for them to send my application back because they couldn't understand one of their own questions. My buddy sent his in the same day as me, and his took 6 months to come back. He didn't start calling until after 5 months without a reply. We both had previously had FAC's, and I think his was still in effect. Mine had expired but I did have a registered restricted firearm. I don't know if these factors made much of a difference in either case or not. However, I felt it was my right as a citizen to be able to call at least once a week and inquire as to the status of my application. And if my calling them drove the cost of this boondoggle up, Oh Well! ;) If I recall, the question they screwed up was 14 A- "have you lived with anyone other than your current spouse or common-law partner in the last two years?" I answered "No". Question 14 B was "If YES, please provide the addresses". I didn't answer 14 B because it wasn't applicable, but they sent my application back! You're right. What a system!!

Language complicates new gun laws for Inuit
WebPosted Tue Jun 6 10:29:49 2000 ET IQUALUIT - The new gun laws are causing confusion among thousands
of Inuit hunters in Nunavut, where the main language is Inuktitut
and guns are vital. The federal government has told all gun-owners to get a firearms
licence by Jan. 1, 2001. But the forms are only in English.
And that's a problem for most of the people who live in Canada's newest
territory. Most of them are Inuit and speak Inuktitut. They hunt to feed their
families so they're paying close attention to the new gun laws. But when they try to apply for a new licence, they find there are no forms in
their language.
"The actual firearms application is in English only," says Joshi Mitzimi,
Nunavut's firearms officer. "What people don't know is that our Member of
Parliament has asked the government of Canada to translate the application
into Inuktitut as well but the federal government hasn't replied yet." Under the new laws, Canadians must also take a safety course to get the
firearms licence. In Iqaluit, officers are scrambling to find enough bilingual volunteers to teach
that course. For now, officials are offering an alternative to the course in Nunavut.
Gun owners can take a test of 10 questions using an interpretor. They
can opt out of the course if they pass the test. Northern firearms officers have a big job ahead of them. They must get the
correct information to about 4,500 people who need to apply for a licence
before the deadline and that's less than six months away.

I don't have a Remington, so I won't mention the other makes I do have, since most seem to like Remington. What I will say however, is that in 30+ years of hunting I have found that everyone seems to be happy with whatever they purchase as long as its mean't for the task at hand. Nowadays I don't believe there is a bad one. I'm sure which ever one you choose will give you many years of satisfaction and will always be your favorite because its your first. Enjoy every minute you have while hunting and take only what you need. Remember, if you take care of mother nature, she'll take care of you. (what the heck, I got a Winchester 1200)

True enough Kevin, but I still have to question his timing. Shortly after the ban, when it was time to stand up and be counted, the poor outfitters were left alone at the bottom of the political dungheap. Heck I drove from Oshawa to North Bay and back in one day in February just to attend the Bring Back the Bear Hunt Rally - and I've never hunted bears in my life! I felt it was an important enough issue to step up to the plate and lend my support in whatever way I could. I'm sure the Liberal policy might change - if we can figure out if they even have a policy - other than contradicting whatever Harris does.

Hutchman,welcome to the board and to the world of hunting. Always glad to see new people taking up the sport. My dad bought me an 870 more than 20 years ago for my 13th birthday. The gun was used when he bought it and I still have it ( and many fond memories afield to go with it). When I was a teenager I literally poured hundreds and hundreds of rounds through this gun shooting trap as well as in the field and it always functioned perfectly.These guns are built to last a lifetime and I don't see how you could go wrong buying one. Though I have many more guns now this one will always be my favourite just because my dad gave it to me when I was a kid .....Good Luck...TC

Welcome hutchman!
I started with my 870 wingmaster 15 years ago, and still love it to this day1
Fortunatly it has been in my hunting partners hand for the last 5 years.
Since then I have used a 1100 Remington semi and love it!
Can't beat it for wing shooting!
All I have to say, put your money into something that is comfortable and is most practical for what you are going for!
Good luck! Stay safe!

Shooter , if you really want a nice autoloader check out the new Beretta AL391 Urika. They are more expensive than the Remington but I think they are a better gun than the Remington 11-96 which is really just a skelotonized version of the 11-87. Beretta took their already well made AL390,made it more slender,reduced the weight,and made some small changes to the gas compensation system etc.so the gun would have less felt recoil. I saw one at my dealer's a couple of weeks ago and was impressed with the gun and its good balance for such a light gun. If I had the coin I would pick one up in a heartbeat...just my $.02.....TC

Kevin -
I was at the "Bring Back the Bear Hunt Rally" in North Bay in Feb 1999, just after the hunt was cancelled. Mike Brown was there and wouldn't commit that his government would overturn the ban if they were elected. There were questions from the floor that Mike tapdanced around and Gerry Vautour, the President of the Ontario Black Bear Association, finally said in desperation, "Is it too much to ask that a politician might answer a question directly?" At the rally, I didn't hear anything from him that indicated he'd lobby to overturn the ban, even tho many bear outfitters were his constituents. Liberal leader McGinty spoke out directly that he wouldn't reinstate the hunt so I'm guessing Mike would be toeing the line. I'm sure he's concerned that one of his constituents got attacked by a bear, but I wouldn't put these recent efforts into any other category than political advantage-taking, which happens no matter who is in power. Don't count on the Liberals or the NDP reinstating the hunt. Ain't gonna happen.

One more thing. I am a police officer and when crap hit's the fan and long guns come out, you can bet that they are 870's. Pretty much the same for every police service in Ontario. Even the Tactical teams use them. If this doesn't speak for there reliability, I don't know what does. Hitman

I have a Benelli SBE, a Ruger Red Label, and a Browning Superposed. Besides these I have 3 870's. If I had to take one gun, I would grab an 870. You can't beat them for reliability. Get the synthetic stock as someone else mentioned. Put a very low power or Red Dot type scope on it for deer and use good slugs (Sabots or Brenneke) and you will kill deer at 150 yards. If you don't believe it take it to a range and try it. You can get the 31/2 inch Super Mag or just the three inch. Personally I don't feel you need the 3 1/2 inch. I have killed lots of turkeys with 3 inch and seen tons of geese killed with 3 inch steel, but the choice is yours...obviously.
You will not be disappointed with an 870. Good Luck and let's us know what you go with.

Welcome to the board Hutchman. The 870 express combo would be a very good choice. With the rifled barrel and the choice of rounds you get with the super mag, your pretty much setup for anything. I know a few people who have and like them. Personally, I prefer them in synthetic as the wood on the 870's look like they were cut from fence posts.

Woman mauled by rampaging bear By CP
SAULT STE. MARIE -- A 19-year-old woman is recovering in
hospital from leg injuries suffered in a weekend bear attack in
northern Ontario. Rene Connelly of Regina, Sask., was planting trees outside
Chapleau, Ont., Sunday when she was attacked by a bear
believed to weigh about 110 kg. Connelly tried to fight off the bear with a shovel but was bitten
three times on the leg. The worker for the Wilderness Reforestation was able to flee only
when the bear became distracted by her lunch. The bear then
chased Connelly down a bush road. CO-WORKER TO RESCUE Co-worker Jamie Reed put himself between Connelly and the
bear and began pelting it with rocks, leading the bear on a 1.2-km
chase to a supervisor's vehicle, OPP said. The injured woman was transported to Chapleau General
Hospital with non-life-threatening injuries. Attempts were made
yesterday to capture the animal in a live trap. In recent days, bears have become a nuisance around Sault Ste.
Marie as the animals come out of hibernation. Several residents called police over the weekend to report bear
sightings, including one behind a Methodist church and another
behind a local food market. Police say residents can prevent bears from coming around their
homes by keeping garbage tightly sealed.

Two biologists are in the field following the tracks of a radio-collared grizzly bear. All of a sudden, the bear crashes out of the
brush and heads right for them. They scramble up the nearest tree, but the bear starts climbing up the tree after them. The first
biologist starts taking off his heavy leather hiking boots and pulls a pair of sleek running shoes from his back-pack. The second
biologist gives him a puzzled look and says, "What in the world are you doing?" He replies, "I figure when the bear gets close to us,
we'll jump down and make a run for it." The second guy says, "Are you crazy? We both know you can't outrun a full-grown
grizzly bear." The first guy says, "I don't have to outrun the bear... I only have to outrun you!"

This is my 8th season of turkey and I have been lucky enough to take 4 birds so far (including one on opening day this year; I'm going for number 2 tomorrow). I use a box call, a slate (with 2 different strikers), a plunger, a diaphragm and a shaker gobble. I think it is important to have a variety of calls to try, as some days they will respond to a particular one but not to another, and it also gives the illusion of multiple hens. I use the box primarily, until they get in close. Now I have a question. I have yet to master the diaphragm, largely because I find that the latex tickles the roof of my mouth as it vibrates. I find this to be too ticklish. Anyone know of a diaphragm that would work better for this?

Bagged by first bird ever this morning at 6:15, 14.5 lb jake. He was following two hens. They came in silent and caught me a bit out of position. The two hens held up about 10-15 yds short of my decoys. The jake was another 10-15 yds behind them. They held for 20 minutes before finally coming in to get a better look. The jake moved into about where the hens had held, when I unloaded at him. Pretty challenging trying to shoulder your gun with 3 sets of eyes out there trying to spot you. What a buzz !

I agree with bowhunter. A box call or slate call when they are a ways out. You have to move quite a bit to work these calls as well, so it makes them tough when the bird is coming in on you. I have an Easy Yelper strapped to the barrel of my gun that I can work as the bird gets in tight and I already have my gun up. Diaphram's are awesome once you get it working. They are cheap so you can have quite a few different sounding ones. Also, having different strikers will change the sound of your slate call. Kinda like duck hunting. Can never have too many calls.

Does anybody know if turkeys typically avoid longer grass ? Early in the season we were able to coax these birds into open fields where we would set up along the edges. However, now that the hay is getting longer, it appears that they seem to be avoiding the fields. We are planning on going back into the bush for our next outing, to see if we can get one close. By buddies have each bagged there first birds by, I have yet to connect. There are still 3 or 4 gobblers responding to our calls in our area. I'll probably only get one more kick at them. Hope I can connect.

I am by no means an expert, since this is my first year turkey hunting also. However, I do like the box call when the bird is still a long ways off. It produces lots of volume. I haven't mastered the diaphram, but I have Quaker Boy plunger call that producess a good purr when the bird gets closer.

The Winchester 71 is a lever gun chambered in 348 Winchester and was produced in 1936.I wasn`t sure if it was a clone of the Cooey, I guess it isn`t.You would probably have better luck asking on the Canadian Firearms Digest.

Nope, Mod 71 Cooey was a bolt action HP. from John Beltons book.... "this was a lower cost Canadian version of the standard Mod 70 Winchester, which was introduced in 1966. It became the model 710 in 1968, was discontinued in 1972 and was available in calibres 225, 243, 270, 308 and 30.06" there was also a CIL mod 71 available only in 270. The one i have is a mod 71 cooey, 308. and i am a bit confused with the config of the trigger guard assembly and shell clip. I think it has been modified and would like to compare to an original to see if i can salvage this one... it is a pretty gun. I cant think of cooey producing any lever guns Shooter

Posted by Rick Teal on May 20, 2000 at 16:17:53:
I saw this powder listed for the .303 British on The .303 Page, and today I tried to buy some to give it a go.
The fellow in the gun shop told me it wasn't available in Canada any longer, and that my only source would be the U. S. Since I don't want to go through the hassle of import and explosives permits, this seems to close the door on me. I was hoping that some of the reloaders here could comment on the accuracy of this guy's statement. If anyone knows of a source in Ontario or western Quebec, could you let me know?

Hi Fisher, Haven't spoke in a while, how's the young lad ?? I put another ad in the Wellington Advertizer and well, I hate admit it, the first call I got was from outside of Clifford. I meant to put in again for a few more weeks. Usually get two to three calls per ad. This year is the first in about two years. I was going through withdrawl, it was scary, every little thing in a field looked like a chuck. I think my wife was getting sick of hearing about it. I use to have a lot of farms in this are, all from the few ad placed and then word of mouth. The other thing is have a an OFAH membership and flawnt the insurance policy, it has "tipped" the desicion making scale more than once. Stay Safe Shoot Straight, Tack

Fischer,wait till after the first cut of hay is off sometime in June and it is easier to see them as they love to eat young alfalfa sprouts.Also,the young chucks have been weaned by then so they are not left in the hole to die .If you also wait till the soyabeans have been planted you will find them around the edges of the field ( they clean lots of ours off every year). My dad has a short stretch of gully with a crick running through that borders his bean field....great short range shooting with your .22 Mag. or Hornet....for the hay fields and pastures get out your heavy barell long range stuff...TC

Phil;
Here in Canada if a criminal breaks into your house and you call the police to report it you will become the criminal if the officer finds a firearm that isn`t (what he considers to be) stored safely.Their attention soon distracts from the reason they were called to your house in the first place and becomes focused on nailing your ass.I`m not opposed to education and having guns stored properly where children are present but I am against the criminalization of decent citizens.

I am from Trenton and know both gun shops in Belleville. As someone mentioned, what they will give you and what they should be worth are two separate things. You could also post a list of the guns here and most of these guys could give you a pretty good estimate of the values. I assume most of them are normal grade rifles and shotguns. Hitman

Primarily they want to have every one who owns a handgun or any semi auto rifle with a detachable clip be photographed, fingerprinted, and taxed by the federal government. Not just to buy a new one, but just to keep the one you already have. They have a long list of other requirements, but this is the most serious. The tax would be a total of about a billion dollars if everyone kept their guns. The whole intent is to get people to give up their guns because it is too much of a pain in the butt to keep them

Well Nick ..... like I suggested before, if you can hit a standing chuck at 200 yds. or a running chuck @100 yds. you can pretty well hit anything large game at any distance and any condition. You should try it, they run fast, and for a very short distance unlike you billboard giving you a 200yd exposure enabling you to empty your mag. :-) Besides there are people/landowners out there that hate chucks but would never let you hunt deer. I understand you hunt alot of waterfowl .... well sure it's easy .... anyone can hit a bird at 50yds when you shot 300 pellets at the same time ... :-) Try a real man's sport and use a single projectile and hit something smaller at 200yds.

Well, it seems to finally be happening. The gun ban movement is gaining momentum at a frantic pace here in the US. I live in northern Minnesota, so I like to check up on what you Canadian guys are doing once in a while. We will not give up without a fight, but I fear this may be our last stand. We will know on November 8, 2001. They are marching in Washington D.C. this weekend for a law to have all gun owners be photographed, fingerprinted, and taxed every five years. I thought this could never happen in America, but then again I thought it could never happen in a country as nice as Canada (I really like Canada, except for the FAR left politics of the Federal government. You seem to have a great culture up there, none of the urban problems that plauge the U.S.) Just had to drop a line to let you know that you are not alone in being persecuted by your government for owning a gun.

Well Kevin, yes some laws are written in a manner that an "inturpretation" is possible, however, I don't think the word "prohibited" could have this problem. L & O at what expense???? , well don't be confused on this one Bill C-17 was MORE than enough legistlation for this country. I am a shooter and hunter with great passion, I'm also being screwed around by these laws. That said I guess I have enough restricted ones in my name a couple non's won't put my nose out of joint. That dosn't mean I support the idea. It just means you won't see me revolting by non-compliance. After all when you have a badge in your pocket (and take that seriously) you pick and choose your battles very carefully. With these laws specifically, the way they are written, civil disobediance will do nothing but get you a criminal record and all your firearms confiscatred as well as a ban on owning or possessing them. For the cost..... they already "had" a system showing who is licenced, they just had to update it and require those with firearms to maintain a licence. Instead of reinventing the wheel. The notion of "now cops will know if there is firearms in the house" is bogus........ any and I mean any cop worth his salt will always assume there are. The long and short of it is I'm sitting here shaking my head in disbelief just as much as the next guy. We have to stop electing parties into government that "know better than the rest of society because of "our special position" and will protect everyone". Arrogance is not the best attributes of a politician. Stay Safe , Tack

I`m on my second dog now, my first was trained to do blind retrieves as will that yellow lab in the picture. A collar is worth their weight in gold and repetition is the secret.A half hour of training every night is better than four hours every weekend.There are lots of good training videos out there as well.

Thanks, Kevin. I'm really a neophyte, so any tips are appreciated. I'm also learning that this is going to be a sizable undertaking, time-wise and monetarily. With my son off to College in the fall, I guess I'll have to cut back on any new guns or fishin' rods. Luckily, I've managed to stockpile enough of both without my wife knowing. ;)

If you don`t have an electric collar you might consider buying one, they are a great tool for training a dog if used properly.

That can be confusing because the laws are interpreted differently by different people at different times.Law and order at what expense? I don`t care what colour the gun is, if some idiot adult wants to point it at a cop or anyone else for that matter they should be considered a threat and dealt with accordingly.
This is a hunting forum but it`s difficult to avoid discussion such as this when our judicial system is in the garbage.

Gentlemen: Jerry Gagnon owner of Gagnon's is a friend of mine. Also, I know the owner of a large hunt/fish store in Belleville. Maybe we should consider placing a large order and trying to save some money. Gagnon's carrys mainly Carry-lites and Quinte Outdoor Sports in Belleville has mainly Flambeau. Let me know what you are kind you want and I can check it out. We could get them quite a bit cheaper I'm sure. We would have to order them by the dozen, which I am sure would not be a problem. I have a bunch of buddies that I will check with as well and maybe we could come up with an order for 10 or so dozen. Get back to me with what you want. Hitman

Replicas........... Surprise, Surprise ...... C68 has a section, unable to quote the section right now, that prohibits the sale/aquisition of such ideams. At one of the Instructor conferences there was a seminar on "deactivation/replicas". The speaker was the RCMP Chief Forensics Officer. He said the law brought in was specifically targeted to curb the use of replicas in crime. The topic was there because many CFSC Instructors were thinking of using replica handguns if they didn't already have real ones. It is not illegal to own a replica firearm, now, as long as you aquired it prior to C68 and can prove it. (kind of like grandfathering them so to speak) That must be why they went to the store. A replica firearm is "designed to look and function as a real firearm would" . So water guns are not on the list, ....... On that note a few years ago I attended a Street Survival Seminar for Police Officers in the States, they showed us a slide of a Mac10 complete with magazine. It was painted florecent green, in hopes that the officer they went up against might hesitate and not see it as a threat.
P.S.
Hey guys I'm one of you, but I also work on the side of law and order. let's not get carried away with all of the comments.......Tack

daughter was 4 she came home talking about how bad it was to hunt and kill deer (aka bambi).
It took a lot of talking before she saw the other side. She's now 6 and keeps asking to go
hunting with me. I'll defer until she is 8, but always let her help with the cleaning
of the birds in the garage. It takes a lot to have a parent pass on their traditions

Kern: I like Herter's burlap decoys or similar the best. They look the best, ride the best and are very very rugged. Carry-lite decoys paint flakes of as soon as you touch them. The old style Flambeau looked brutal. The shape and the paint suck. The new ones don't look too bad and the price is right. I think the paint is probably better, but I don't like the bluebill style. I have approximately 200 blocks know, mainly Carry-lites. G+H are really popular in the states but harder to find up here. You set up a rig of Herter's or Fowl Foolers or something similar beside a rig of Carrylite or Flambeau and you will see what I mean. The ducks may not care too much, but I do. Hitman

Kern, the paint ain't so good, and they are usually
water keels. When you buy decoys in the fall,
make sure you pay the extra couple bucks for weighted
keels, they weigh more but are well worth it.
Better yet, If you want we'll go together, Nick
and I where talking about the early goose hunt on

My 3 year old son has a toy plastic gun that he likes to wear around the house in a holster and pretend he's a cowboy. A few weeks ago he screamed bloody murder one morning when I tried to take it off of him to take him to his daycare so I just let him keep it figuring it was no big deal. About one minute in the door one of the ladies took it away from him (which made him scream), put it up on a shelf and told me that such things were inappropriate and NEVER to bring anything like that with him again. As I left, I thought to myself how ridiculous things have become and wondered if my son will ever get the chance the chance to enjoy guns or hunting by the time he grows up.......I doubt it.I,myself,played constantly with toy guns while growing up as I'm sure many people reading this board did and we didn't turn into criminals. The reason was we had parents to teach us right from wrong and how to responsibly treat guns.....TC

Hi Hitman,
Just wondering why you dont want any Flambeau's? Im a little new to the decoy game and recently dropped some coin on my first batch of field Geese decoys. Had a great time with them and wonder why it took me so long to try decoys. This fall I plan to try the same for ducks and as Flambeau is the most common decoy I see around here, I imagine most of my duck spread will be Flambeau as well. Thanks

I watched a guy go to work on a cedar block just a few weeks ago and I was surprised at just how fast he could turn a block of wood into a duck.

Also want field goose decoys, any style. Will consider trading a good hunt for decoys depending on quantity/quality or will buy outright. Thanks a bunch,

In light of the rising frequency of human/grizzly bear conflicts, the Alberta Department of Fish and Game is advising hikers,hunters and fishermen to take extra precautions and keep alert for bears while in the field.
They have advised outdoorsmen to wear noisy little bells on their clothing
so as not to startle bears that aren't expecting them.
They have also advised outdoorsmen to carry pepper spray with them in case
of an encounter with a bear.
It is also a good idea to watch out for fresh signs of bear activity.
Outdoorsmen should recognize the difference between bear
droppings. Black bear droppings are smaller and contain lots of berries and
squirrel fur. Grizzly bear droppings have little bells
in it and smell like pepper spray

BRAMPTON, ON, May 9 /CNW/ - On Thursday, May 4th, 2000, Peel Regional
Police Officers from 11 Division Criminal Investigation Bureau executed a
Criminal Code Search Warrant at S & K Toys and Crafts, located at 2525
Hampshire Gate in the City of Oakville. Officers seized approximately 3200
replica firearms that were, in many cases, virtually, indistinguishable from
real firearms.
This seizure was a result of a one-month investigation into a disturbing
and dangerous trend that started in November 1999 involving replica handguns.
Police officers from Peel Regional Police have investigated approximately 27
gun-related incidents.
"Several of these replica handguns have been identified in school yards
and park areas of our Region. They have been observed by citizens and believed
to be actual firearms. Police officers have responded appropriately to
complaints in which they believed real guns were being used in the commission
of criminal offences. Front-line uniform police officers are frequently having
their personal safety and well being of the citizens they protect compromised
by the presence of these replica firearms in numerous situations. I have
serious concerns about the proliferation of this problem in our Region," said
Chief Noel P. Catney.

As a rural Manitoban, I question the mental capacity of anyone who cast an NDP vote. To date, our new gov't, has attacked the spring bear hunt, "penned" hunting, and sportfishing. Do they understand the ramifications of their actions?
Pertaining to "penned" hunting, why the distinction between this and abbatoirs? To harvest an animal in its natural environment as opposed to slaughtering a purpose bred creature, seems illogical at best. Isn't democracy great?!!!

I have heard that after the Fed's have the gun registry in place that there will be a registry for cutlery. It seems that the second most commonly used weapon in offensive crimes is a knife. The plan is to have all Canadians submit to a compulsary coarse and test to improve their knowledge of the proper ediquit in the use of cutlery, the safe handling, and the storage of knives. They would also be subjected to seven page questionaire requiring answers to their past. (eg question: Have you carved a turkey while their mother-in-law watched.Or: Do you eat with your elbows on the table)
Of coarse you wil be required to register your cutlery. This would be a five year phase in program. Regisrtation fees increasing annually as an incentive for early registation. If you are to sell , borrow or loan you would be required to submitt transfer documentation to the central registry office.
Currently the only opposition is from the Canadian Resturant Association.
This program however has the endorsment of Kentucky Fried Chicken who are active members in the Resturant organization. (finger licking good) Note : Had a little idle time, just thought I ridicule the fire arms registry.

Legal analysis of the reworked animal cruelty laws contained within Bill C-17 reveals that animals are about to gain
virtually the same rights as people. And, despite assurances from the Canadian government, concern over the proposed
laws continues to grow. Ontario Federation of Anglers and Hunters’ (O.F.A.H.) lawyers representing hunters, anglers, trappers, food producers
and medical researchers met with federal government lawyers who deny there is anything wrong with the bill. The
denials come despite the vague and ambiguous wording of the proposed laws that throw the door wide open for animal
rights groups to challenge such mundane practices as angling with live bait, raising livestock or conducting important
medical research. "It’s no secret that the animal rights movement is opposed to hunting, angling and trapping and, in some cases, even
eating meat," said Dr. Terry Quinney, O.F.A.H. Provincial Coordinator of Fish and Wildlife. A Canadian animal rights lobby grou recently stated on its web site that Bill C-17 was "revolutionary" and implied that it is
a stepping stone to attack what it calls "institutional cruelty." And, in the Lawyer’s Weekly newspaper, a lawyer
reviewing Bill C-17 wrote "animals are poised for their own emancipation under Canadian law." O.F.A.H. lawyer Peter Danson points out that, historically, the criminal code provides protection to domestic animals.
Such protection does not include fish and wildlife from one end of the food chain to the other as Bill C-17 now proposes. The real problem is that the move creates an important stepping stone for the animal rights agenda. Bill C-17 changes the
criminal code from protecting animals' welfare to giving animals' rights. It is on the basis that animals feel pain that animal
rights activists claim animals deserve the same rights as people. This bill is an animal rights wolf in sheep's clothing, said
Danson. Clearly stating the animal rights agenda involving C-17, Joyce Tischler, Executive Director of the Animal Legal Defense
Fund states, "elevating the status of animals from property to person will be a step-by-step process involving litigation,
legislation and public education." "If the government’s goal is to strengthen animal cruelty laws, there needs to be explicit wording that recognizes existing,
legitimate and necessary use of animals," Quinney said. After all, 90 percent of Canadians eat meat, millions of people hunt and fish and, despite government assurances to the
contrary, we do not want to open the door to frivolous, costly and damaging court challenges by the radical animal rights
movement, Quinney concluded. For more information about Bill C-17 and the concerns around it, please contact Ontario Federation of Anglers and
Hunters Communications Specialist Mark Holmes at 705-748-6324, fax to 705-748-9577, or e-mail ofah@ofah.org

Anybody managed to bag a tom yet. Was out Saturday, my two hunting buddies each nailed thier first birds. They were 18.5 and 17.9 lb. mature toms. I was not as fortunate, but did manage to indulge myself on my first ever wild turkey dinner. Excellant table fair. They look a little different in the roast pan, but taste very much like a domestic bird only better. Sure hope I get a chance at one this spring.

ticks can be a problem in traditional moose areas of northern ontario. Ticks are definitely a prob for moose below the french/mattawa line, which is traditional whitetail country. Moose and deer dont fair well in co-habitation. Personally.... open up the moose tags in southern ontario and keep the moose numbers down, let the deer come back up Shooter

Had a 742 woodmaster form '75 thru '93. 308 Cal. I heard about the lug lock problem but never personally experienced it myself. I had a prob with 3rd shell jams but prob was in the clip. A little modification and bending to the clips pick up line and prob was solved. Shot many moose and deer with the 180 gr ammo. Good tight kill groups at 100 yards. Effective to 300 if you know your ballistics. Recoil was excellent! (minimal) I sold mine in '95 with Bushnel variable 1.5 to 4, soft case and box of ammo for $425. I had come across a newer 7400 30.06 carbine which i had been looking for. I tend to hunt the deep brush edges and tight marshes for moose and deer now and wanted the carbine for faster swinging ability. (PS: It works great!!!!) Bought a Savage 300 mag as a backup to the carbine should i happen to be watching over a field or open marshed area. Dont be shy of the 742, all is repairable if you get the lug prob. Just dont pay too much. Shooter

I currently own a 742 in .30-06, and three years agofired one shot at a buck and missed, went to pull the trigger and nothing. the extractor broke. But if foul language could kill he'd be dinner, cause he just stood there and looked at me while i spewed a stream. Anyway, the guns been great to me but it has to be thoroughly clean every time it is fired(guys at gangons)and must be watch for wear on the rotating lugs. This is a problem in the 742's which was corrected in the 7400's. All i can say is that i bought mine, a good deal, and its got me 5 deer. Good luck and good hunting

Jason;
Don`t be too quick to rule out predation by bears, moose calves are one of their favorite foods.Unregulated hunting by Indians and poachers would be another valid reason, ticks, there have always been ticks and dry summers cause a decrease in insects which should be a benefit to the moose population.

Posted by Kevin on April 28, 2000 at 07:44:43:
The allocation of Ontario moose tags had to be reduced this year due to the unnatural and excessive predation of moose calves which is directly related to the over abundance of black bear in Ontario that stems from the ban of the spring bear hunt initiated by Mike Harris.

I had the same model in a 30-06 and it too was "in excellent shape" ... until it "big time jammed" for the first time ... while 2 deer were prancing about in front of me! The bolt had worn in the area of the "lugs" and wasn't retracting/aligning all the way in the grooves. When the gun fired, the bolt would open and then jam as the lugs engaged and started to rotate. A gunsmith who I took it to (during my week of hunting) said that this was a VERY COMMON problem on this model (742 Woodsmaster) and would be expensive to fully remedy (he Dremmel tooled it out, removing the "burrs" in it ... but then the action felt "sloppy"). I had this further confirmed by a second gunsmith (Gagnon's) and consequently sold the gun and bought a new model 7400 30-06 carbine. Before buying this gun, remove the trigger assembly (punch out the retaining pins) and turn the gun over ... look at the bolt and see if there is any noticable scoring where it retracts. It might be worth taking it to a reputable gunsmith and having them look at it, as this was something that you might overlook when looking at how "new" the gun is. I got a good 7-8 years out of mine before this happened (and the gun was already probably that old) ... but it only takes one jam to make you regret not noticing something like this sooner. Good luck.

Just surfing. Nice site. Writing from Manitoba where the spring bear season is also under attack from Winnipeg Humane Society and, you guessed it, IFAW. So far the NDP gov't isn't changing laws, but as it usually goes with these uneducated, socialist idiots we are probably not far behind you guys in Ontario. Their argument is, as I'm sure it was in Ontario as well, that too many sows are being shot away from their cubs.
They say female bears will often leave their cubs behind as they approach a bait.WHAT BS!! We've been in the outfitting business for 18 years and to this day I have not seen this to be true. As you know, the cubs always come out first, closely followed by the sow. Anyone who thinks differently should spend some time in a treestand watching bears, and not get their info from misinformed,ill-brained AR extremists.
As usual, the media are giving completely biased reports on this issue.I learned something today! Myself and many I know have always thought that the majority of tree-huggers,animal rights people, etc. were mainly university students from large urban centers, specifically Toronto& area. Nice to see that's not true!

3.5 inch would help with steel. Bigger pellets take up more room so a bigger case that holds more would make sense. I have a 10ga browning BPS and am very pleased with it. One of the reasons I bought it is because of the large payloads I can throw at geese. Only down side is the 3.5 inch shells cost more. Last year I paid 42.99 for a box of 10 shells in Bismuth! This year I saw them for around 34.00 for the same box.

The 3 1/2 will give you more shot but it won`t give you any more punch. The velocities will be pretty much the same as the shorter shells.I can`t see spending the extra money on the 3 1/2`s although I do like Browning products.
Posted by Alain on April 20, 2000 at 14:27:07:
Please advise me if I am doing the right thing on purchasing the New Browning Gold 3.5". I would use for Geese and duck Hunting.I am very excited about bying it and am wondering if anyone has one out there. I am also looking into getting the HI-VIZ with it.
I really like semi automatic shot guns and think with the steel shot the 3.5" would help. what do you all think??

In Reply to: 1 more licensing question posted by Sam on April 19, 2000 at 16:32:52:
Right - you have a Possession and Acquistion Licence for Restricted firearms. Before it expires, you will have to
replace it with a PAL - you can chose whether for Restricted (80.00)or Non-restricted (60.00). Have you passed the test for
the Canadian Firearms Safety Course ? If not, you will be required to do so to renew your licence. If you have the course, it is good for life.
Posted by Sam on April 19, 2000 at 16:32:52:
I just want to make sure that I'll be ok when Jan 1 2001 rolls around.
If I have a VALID FAC will that be acceptable as a Possession and Aquistion License? So when my current FAC eventually runs out, I simply reapply for a PAL?
My FAC runs out in 2003, so I shouldn't have to worry about that right???
Thanks

I can appreciate the problems in manufacture, Matt, but find it impossible to believe that it translates into a retail price of $20/lb. Even subtracting wholesale and retail markup, that still translates into $6-8/lb. for the manufacturer. Unless they have some union worker rolling each pellet by hand, that is Outrageous!

The amount of lead needed to be lethal isn't very much. You drop a pellet into a gizzard and all the other gravel will quickly grind it up so enough is absorbed. Eventually they will get rid of it, but the damage will be done.
I don't think people realize how little lead is required to be dangerous. If you took a chip of high lead paint from 50 years ago the size of a dime and somehow ate it, you've just ingested your limit for lead for the next three years.

I`m shooting ducks with #2 steel and don`t care for it.One time the bird will drop hard and the next time it will fly off and die somewhere else.I whacked a nice mallard at close to forty yards, the duck folded and came down in a spin.It lost about ten feet of air then all of a sudden it straightened out and flew away.My dog will find many cripples that were lost by hunters using steel shot.Does anyone know why ducks can`t pass the lead shot through their system ? It seems to me if they can pass a small piece of gravel they should be able to do the same with lead.

Ive knocked a few down with steel and watched them get up and shake it off!! You just have to hold off shooting till you can see their toes. I like Bithmuth, even though I have only shot about 20 rounds. Really nice on those longer shots, but to be honest if your shootin over decoys and their not shy, steel works fine. Im dying to try Tungsten but havent seen it in 10ga.

That is good stuff, nice velocity, and its still cheap.
I have to disagree though, I think bismuth is good
goose medicine, esp. as I like to shoot a full choke.
I have had very good luck with larger sized bismuth.
I really am not much of a steel fan though. I find
that even with solid hits, you may knock em down
but still quite frequently have to put in another one
for good measure! My issue with steel is that it
doesn't deform on contact, so it just pokes a hole
clean through, instead of mushrooming up and putting the
bird down for keeps.
I have made a few hail mary 60 yard irresponsible shots
with bismuth, and still dropped a bird clean. I can't
do that with steel (not that I should be doing it,
but for the sake of an example). I pine for lead.
If the bastards try to ban it for fishing, I'm not
going along with it. Btw, Fischer, I agree, disgracefull
what they charge, but they know some of us will pay it.

Even thought bismuth is a by-product in the
refining proccess of other metals it is so
expensive because it is brittle and hard to shape.
3% tin is actualy added to help from it into pellets.
When you strick a pellet with a hammer you would be suprised
at howw easily it shatters. Matt

My biggest complaint with Bismuth is that, up until it was identified as a "non-toxic" alternative to lead, it was a manufacturing by-product that was dumped by the tonne in landfill sites. Now, the stuff is seems more valuable than silver. An outrageous rip-off! Ever notice that products with "environmentally friendly packaging" cost more? What's up with that?

Bismuth sucks. The higher velocities in magnum shells seem to fragment the shot on impact. Bismuth was a non toxic alternative to steel and i am sure there are others. But wayyyyyyy too expensive. I really havent had a prob with steel. Even with geese. But i exclusively shoot Challenger Steel. 3 inch #2 for the big birds and 2 3/4 inch #2 or #4 early in the season. Shooter

Never liked the stuff anyway...thought it was a rip-off. But, what are they going to come up with next? An outright ban on hunting doesn't seem far away. :( ENVIRONMENT : TOXIC SHOT SYNDROME
April 12, 2000
Nature Science Update
David Adam http://helix.nature.com/nsu/000413/000413-7.html\ Lead shot is, this story explained, so lethal that it poisons and kills water birds that mistakenly eat it. Lead ammunition is, this story says, now prohibited in many countries because of this lingering effect on the
environment. Bismuth shot has the required ballistic properties and, unlike lead, is considered to be safe to non-combatants -- hunters must at least shoot birds to kill them with bismuth. But new research now was cited as
suggesting that some animals wounded with bismuth pellets can accumulate large and potentially toxic amounts of the metal in their tissues. Roger Pamphlett at the University of Sydney, Australia, and colleagues at the University of Aarhus, Denmark, were quoted as saying, "Given the present
knowledge on the toxicity of bismuth compounds, if recreational shooting of wild animals is to continue on a large scale it seems prudent to look for pellet material that is more inert." This story explained that bismuth is essentially non-toxic compared with other, nastier heavy metals like lead. But bismuth has been linked to disorders of the nervous system. And studies have been cited as showing that bismuth toxicity varies between individuals -- it is not directly related to the dose or duration of exposure.

The Parable of the Sheep
by Charles Riggs Not so long ago and in a pasture too uncomfortably close to here, a flock of sheep lived and grazed. They were protected by a dog, who answered to the master, but despite his best efforts from time to time a nearby pack of wolves would prey upon the flock. One day a group of sheep, bolder than the rest, met to discuss their dilemma. "Our dog is good, and vigilant,but he is one and the wolves are many. The wolves he catches are not always killed, and the master judges and releases many to prey again upon us, for no reason we can understand. What can we do? We are sheep, but we do not wish to be food, too!" One sheep spoke up, saying "It is his teeth and claws that make the wolf so terrible to us. It is his nature to prey, and he would find any way to do it, but it is the tools he wields that make it possible. If we had such teeth, we could fight back, and stop this savagery." The other sheep clamored in agreement, and they went together to the old bones of the dead wolves heaped in the corner of the pasture, and gathered fang and claw and made them into weapons. That night, when the wolves came, the newly armed sheep sprang up with their weapons and
struck at them, crying, "Begone! We are not food!" and drove off the wolves, who were
astonished. When did sheep become so bold and so dangerous to wolves? When did sheep grow teeth? It was unthinkable! The next day, flush with victory and waving their weapons, they approached the flock to
pronounce their discovery. But as they drew nigh, the flock huddled together and cried out, "Baaaaaaaadddd! Baaaaaddd things! You have bad things! We are afraid! You are not sheep!"
The brave sheep stopped, amazed. "But we are your brethren!" they cried. "We are still sheep, but we do not wish to be food. See, our new teeth and claws protect us and have saved us from slaughter. They do not make us into wolves, they make us equal to the wolves, and safe from their viciousness!" "Baaaaaaad!" cried the flock, "the things are bad and will pervert you, and we fear them. You cannot bring them into the flock!" So the armed sheep resolved to conceal their weapons, for although they had no desire to panic the flock, they wished to remain in the fold. But they would not return to those nights of terror, waiting for the wolves to come. In time, the wolves attacked less often and sought easier prey, for they had no stomach for fighting sheep who possessed tooth and claw even as they did. Not knowing which sheep had fangs and which did not, they came to leave sheep out of their diet almost completely except for the occasional raid, from which more than one wolf did not return. Then came the day when, as the flock grazed beside the stream, one sheep’s weapon slipped from the folds of her fleece, and the flock cried out in terror again, "Baaaaaad! You still possess these evil things! We must ban you from our presence!" And so they did. The great chief sheep and his council, encouraged by the words of their
advisors, placed signs and totems at the edges of the pasture forbidding the presence of hidden weapons there. The armed sheep protested before the council, saying, "It is our pasture, too, and we have never harmed you! When can you say we have caused you hurt? It is the wolves, not we, who prey upon you. We are still sheep, but we are not food!" But the flock drowned them out with cries of "Baaaaaaddd! We will not hear your clever words! You and your things are evil and will harm us!" Saddened by this rejection, the armed sheep moved off and spent their days on the edges of the flock, trying from time to time to speak with their brethren to convince them of the wisdom of having such teeth, but meeting with little success. They found it hard to talk to those who, upon hearing their words, would roll back their eyes and flee, crying "Baaaaddd! Bad things!" That night, the wolves happened upon the sheep’s totems and signs, and said, "Truly, these sheep are fools! They have told us they have no teeth! Brothers, let us feed!" And they set upon the flock, and horrible was the carnage in the midst of the fold. The dog fought like a demon, and often seemed to be in two places at once, but even he could not halt the slaughter. It was only when the other sheep arrived with their weapons that the wolves fled, only to remain on the edge of the pasture and wait for the next time they could prey, for if the sheep were so foolish once, they would be so again. This they did, and do still. In the morning, the armed sheep spoke to the flock, and said, "See? If the wolves know you
have no teeth, they will fall upon you. Why be prey? To be a sheep does not mean to be food for wolves!" But the flock cried out, more feebly for their voices were fewer, though with no less terror, "Baaaaaaaad! These things are bad! If they were banished, the wolves would not harm us! Baaaaaaad!" So they resolved to retain their weapons, but to conceal them from the flock; to endure their fear and loathing, and even to protect their brethren if the need arose, until the day the flock learned to understand that as long as there were wolves in the night, sheep would need teeth to repel them. They would still be sheep, but they would not be food! © 1997 Charles Riggs

Well Tack, it's still around. The service has it listed in their supply system. The 7.62 is used in the GPMG and Mini-Tat. 303 is still issued to the Rangers and some of the Cadet units. I put my name on the list at Crown Assets so that I can receive email notices of upcoming sales. I retired last year after 21 years as an armourer with the CAF. I was hoping to get ahold of either loaded or empty cases for a book on the 7.62 NATO cartridge. The 303 Brit stuff would be for fireforming to 303 Epps. I want to get three or four different milsurp case types together and determine how much difference there is between the commercial stuff and gov't issue. SNC makes all the small arms ammunition for the service now (including, they tell me, 303 and 7.62). They're based out of Quebec but don't sell to the general public of course. Atlantic Ordnance in Oromocto, NB used to sell 7.62 and 5.56 brass. They have an email address, but I can't find it. Maybe someone knows it or their 1-800 number. Take care! Safe Shooting!

Hey Steve, I think the only people that would be able to fill that request might be named Bob Smith of 123 any street, Something Town :-) When I left the Army Cadets, as an instructor, we were blowing off 7.62 IVI, year 79 I think. and .303 was 82. I know that because I think I got one of the last remaining WWII .303 cases(empty) in southern Ontario when I was a cadet two years prior. I don't know for sure, I have been away from the organization for almost 15yrs., but I thought the FN's were placed in "war time" storage. If so, the ammo would not have been liquidated.

As far as waiting until Dec 31 to apply for your licence, keep in mind that you must have a licence on
Jan 1, 2000 to possess a firearm - ot just have applied for it. If you wait until Dec 31, you could be causing yourself
grief. Your choice, but be sure you know what you are doing.

One of the requirements to be eligible for a possession licence is that you already possessed a firearm
as of Dec 1/98. You may get a licence to possess whatever class you possessed at that time. That is the reason
the application requests the firearms you owned. If they were restricted or prohibited, all
you need to indicate is the registration certificate number. For non-restricted, they ask for a description
of the firearm involved. This is not registration as there is no charge for it and the firearm is not recorded to
you, only used to confirm elibility

My buddy told them he is informing them he has {A} gun
in his possesion,but was not registrating them at this time .
They said it was ok ,so if i do mine i,ll leave it blank.
This has to be the biggest money grab ever,wait till the registration

Please tell me more. I'm in the process of my application for renewal of my aquistion permit. I find one question on the application that is asking me to identify one of the fire arms I possess by make and serial number. To me this is another registry of firearms that I, under the current system am obosed to. If there is a new system in the making I would appreciate more details. My current FAC expires in June, and I may have waited too late to get a timely return. Thanks Jack

Hey Guys, Just got back from my local sporting goods store and got to chatting about the new licensing and registration system. The owner mentioned that lot of his customers
are waiting until the last minute to apply for the possession
and or the acquisition license. Just wondering what the majority of the board is doing? I guess everyone's aim is
to overload the system, but as of January 1 is it legal to
possess longuns if your application is still under review??
I personally plan to wait as long as I can! Just wondering
what the general consensus is??? Regards

I caught that one in a neck snare last December and I would have gladly let it go if it had not had mange.
Just last week I found another one (dead) probably from the same litter.
It was laying dead under the farmers combine less than a hundred yards from where I had caught this one.

Dont get me wrong Braden, I agree 100% with the idea of opening some of those parks to hunting as long as the activities are managed properly. Im only sorry that they are all so far away. What I have trouble with is the idea people have that because they pay taxes they should get some kind of right in return. The act of paying taxes does not extend any rights to people...they never have! I pay to have a drivers license, but driving is a privledge not a right...license or not. I see what your saying about everyone getting equal share of the parks their tax money went into, but surely you can understand that some activities probably wont work on the same patch of turf. The guy next door who rides ATV's also pays the same taxes that you and the bird watchers pay so I guess we have to make room for him too. Obviously you can see where the logic is leading.

If you want to hunt from a road(read mule trail) in
Wabakimi, then yes that would be fine. While I
understand what your saying Kern, I don't think
that it really applies here. Most of the parks
proposed are waaaaaaaaay north. I wouldn't object
to hunting from the road in polar bear national park
BTW I believe that the furthest you have to be from
a road in rural areas is 6 metres. I could be
mistaken, but then I have seen an awful lot of
Blaze orange at the side of the road in Northern Ont.
when moose is in season (not hwy 11 mind, but sideroads.
The amount of traffic through these parks up north
in the fall is MINIMAL. Thus why, if a bird watcher
pays the same taxes that you and I do, should he be
allowed to pursue his sport in a provincial park,
when I can't. Braden

Wigster,don't know how much luck you'll have on crow with air gun since I never tried it, but here is how I like to hunt them : I have a bunch of Johnny Stewart tapes that I ordered from Bass Pro a couple of years ago and by far the best is one called "Death Cry of a Crow" which really seems to bring them in.I like to set up on the edge of a bean or corn field (preferably on the corner)and play the tapes in a small boom box (my daughter's)which seems to work OK . Build a small blind out of some brush if there is some around and wear full camo . Crows are not stupid birds ,have excellent vision , and as soon as they realize what is going on they will be gone.Some people say to shoot the first crow that shows up as he is the scout for the rest of them but I never found this to make much difference.They will usually show up within a minute or so of turning on the tape (if there are any in the area)so you have to hurry back to your hiding spot before they see you. Mostly I shoot them with a shotgun and you can usually get at least a couple before they see you and take off. I sometimes take my .22 Hornet with me as well and if one hangs up and lands out in the field at some distance thinking he is out of danger you can still get a shot...great fun!!..Hope this helps.TC

We all pay taxes, and If some chump can set up shop for a week and run his boat at 50mph down lake opeongo, because he pays taxes, then I should be able to set up shop for a week in October. BTW, ever been in our provincial parks at the end of October, there empty. In all honesty I don't advocate opening parks that are very close to urban areas, they'll be overrun in short order. But the parks that are being proposed are all pretty far north and far from amenities from what I recall. How many of us have been to some of these remote places? I have but then I'm into all that back country hassle. The majority of Moose hunters I have met get upset when there to far from the hot tub. (just kidding guys.) Braden

I found this in another outdoor discussion board and thought some of you would get a kick out of it. Credit to original poster.
This from a radio program, a TRUE report of a happening in Michigan: A guy buys a brand new Jeep Grand Cherokee for $30,000 and has $400+ monthly payments. He and a friend go duck hunting and of course all the lakes are frozen.
These two guys go to the lake with the guns, the dog, the beer and of course the new vehicle. They drive out onto the lake ice and get ready. Now, they want to make some kind of a natural landing area for the ducks, something for the decoys to float on. In order to make a hole Large enough to look like something a wandering duck would fly down and and on, it is going to take a little more effort than an ice hole drill.So, out of the back of the new Grand Cherokee comes a stick of dynamite with a short, 40-second fuse. Now these two Rocket Scientists do take into consideration that they should place the dynamite at a location far from where they are standing (and the new Grand Cherokee). Mainly because they don't want to take the risk of slipping on the ice when they run from the burning fuse and possibly go up in smoke with the resulting blast. They decide to light this 40-second fuse and throw the dynamite. (Remember a couple of paragraphs back when I mentioned the vehicle, the beer, the guns and the dog?) Yes, the dog, a highly trained Black Lab used for retrieving. Especially things thrown by the owner. You guessed it, the dog takes off at a high rate of doggy speed on the ice and captures the stick of dynamite with the burning 40-second fuse about the time it hits the ice. The two men yell, scream, wave arms and wonder what to do now. The dog, cheered on, keeps coming. One of the guys grabs the shotgun and shoots the dog. The shotgun is loaded with # 8 duck shot, hardly big enough to stop a Black Lab. The dog stops for a moment, slightly confused, but continues coming. Another shot and this time the dog, still
standing, becomes really confused and of course terrified, thinking these two Nobel Prize winners have gone insane. The dog takes off to find cover, (with the now really short fuse burning on the stick of dynamite) and gets under the brand new Cherokee. ----
BOOM!
Dog and Cherokee are blown to bits and sink to the bottom of the lake in a very large hole, leaving the two idiots standing there with this "I can't believe this happened" look on their faces. The insurance company says that sinking a vehicle in a lake by illegal use of explosives is not covered. A N D ......... He still had to make those $400+ a month payments!! And you thought your day was not going well!! WAYNE

But with the current trend towards "low-impact" activities in protected areas, does hunting fit in? It is a personal viewpoint, but I just don't feel that hunting, along with other activites such as logging, etc. have a place in parks. The only way I can see hunting working in parks is if it is conducted on a very limited basis with stringent draws.

Parks were created with the express purpose of preserving the small fragments of "wilderness" that remain. General crown land does not fall into this category. Is it really necessary to have hunting in protected areas when there are already vast acreages of crown land available?

Parks are Crown Land and should be open to all residents of the province to be used for any type of recreation including hunting.
Posted by glenn on April 05, 2000 at 17:37:38:
This hunter says no. Parks, especially wilderness parks, should be managed in a manner that minimizes the impact of humans upon the landscape and wildlife. Yes, periodic culls are required in parks such Rondeau to control certain wildlife populations, but widespread hunting in provincial parks is a bad idea. First, there is no sound biological reason for hunting in most cases. Moose hunting in Algonquin? Why? The moose are in tune with their predators and habitat without the intervention of humans. I suspect the same is also true in virtually all of the northen parks. Second, this could turn out to be a public relations nightmare for hunters. There is certainly going to be a public backlash against hunting in parks and it will serve to further darken the image of hunting that the general public holds. Thus, I believe hunting in provincial is not benefically to either the parks or hunting in general. I say oppose it.

Walter Williams To keep and bear arms http://www.jewishworldreview.com --
WHENEVER THERE'S A TRAGEDY
involving gun use, Bill Clinton, Al Gore, the
gun-control lobby and the news media seize it
as another opportunity to exploit the emotions
of uninformed American people for political
gain. Unfortunately, most Americans don't have the
foggiest notion of why the Framers of the
Constitution, through the Second Amendment,
guaranteed our right to keep and bear arms.
Our leftist establishment would like us to believe
the Second Amendment was written to protect
our duck- and deer-hunting rights. Don't take
my word --- read what was actually said during
the constitutional debates. Thomas Jefferson said: "No man shall ever be
debarred the use of arms. The strongest reason
for the people to retain the right to keep and
bear arms is, as a last resort, to protect
themselves against tyranny in government." Tench Coxe, assistant secretary of the treasury
(1789), said, "The unlimited power of the sword
is not in the hands of either the federal or state
governments, but, where I trust in G-d it will
ever remain, in the hands of the people." Noah Webster said, "The supreme power in
America cannot enforce unjust laws by the
sword, because the whole body of the people
are armed, and constitute a force superior to
any band of regular troops." In Federalist Paper No. 46, James Madison
said the Constitution "preserves the advantage
of being armed which Americans possess over
the people of almost every other nation, the
existence of subordinate governments, to which
the people are attached ... forms a barrier
against the enterprises of ambition. ..." Numerous sentiments like these were expressed
during the constitutional debates. Here's my
question to you: Which one of those statements
sounds like the Framers had deer- and
duck-hunting in mind when they wrote the
Second Amendment? The Framers gave us the
Second Amendment so we could have at least a
last-ditch fighting chance against government
encroachment on our liberties. Who are the people who desperately want to
disarm law-abiding Americans? The answer doesn't require rocket science to
figure that one out. The strongest advocates of
gun control are the very people who seek greater and greater control
over our lives. They're the people who want to take away our rights to
property, freedom of speech and religion, and other liberties. They're
cowards and want to feel safe doing so. They figure if we're first
disarmed they can trample over our liberties with impunity. If these people had guts and a modicum of respect for the Constitution,
they'd seek repeal of the Second Amendment. Instead, they pursue an
agenda to repeal it by stealth. The latest attempts are the suits against
arms manufacturers for crimes committed with guns. Last week, gun manufacturer Smith & Wesson caved in to this pressure
by signing a voluntary gun-control agreement with the Clinton-Gore
administration. That "voluntary" agreement seeks to force arms
manufacturers to do what today's laws do not require and create an
"oversight commission" to ensure compliance.. Arms manufacturers Glock Inc. and Browning refused to sign the
agreement. In response, New York's Attorney General Eliot Spitzer told
them, "If you do not sign, your bankruptcy lawyers will be knocking at
your door." That kind of official threat is an indication of just how bold
and emboldened America's tyrants have become in the wake of our
acquiescence -- threatening destruction of people who refuse to go along
with "voluntary" agreements. We Americans have set dangerous precedents. We can rest assured that
those pushing for gun control have no intention of stopping short of total
gun confiscation. At some point, we who cherish liberty must summon the
courage of our forefathers and tell America's tyrants, "Give me liberty, or
give me death!" The longer we wait, the greater the ultimate
bloodshed.

Attached is an e-mail that I have sent to Justice Minister Anne McLellan concerning the proposed amendments to the Criminal Code regarding Cruelty to Animals. Feel free to plagiarize it, but be sure to add your own comments, so that it is more effective. Form letters tend to get ignored. The Animal Alliance of Canada, an animal rights group, makes it clear that they intend to use these amendments to go after activities that THEY consider cruel. Write Minister McLellan, and your own MP to voice your concern. Copy it to OFAH, or any other outdoor organization you wish. I've included Gerry Breitkreuz, Canadian Alliance Party MP, due to the concern that this may also lead to confiscation of firearms from law-abiding citizens. You can find your own MP at: http://www.parl.gc.ca/36/senmemb/house/MemberList.asp?Lang=E
e-mail to: webadmin@justice.gc.ca
McLellan.A@parl.gc.ca
ofah@ofah.org
Breitkreuz.G@parl.gc.ca I am deeply concerned about the proposed amendments to the Criminal Code covering Cruelty to Animals. While I understand that the Minister’s position is that these amendments will close loopholes in the law, I am concerned that the amendments will open much greater loopholes, and leave large numbers of law-abiding citizens in danger of losing their livelihood and hobbies, due to abuses of the proposed law by special interest groups. Why is there no definition of the terms “viciously or brutally”? This proposed amendment, without clear definitions, leaves the door open to prosecution of veterinarians, farmers, anglers, hunters, abattoir operators and others for simply engaging in what have, until now, been fair and justifiable practices. Without clear definition, an animal rights group or individual could prosecute any of these individuals for cruelty, simply on the basis of their perception of these practices. Previously, the Criminal Code made a clear distinction between domestic animals and wildlife in captivity and free-ranging wildlife. It acknowledged that in the fair pursuit of fish and game animals, that unfortunate circumstances arise where an animal may not be killed quickly or humanely. The proposed definition of animal no longer makes this distinction. The proposed change could make it possible to prosecute a hunter or angler for simply killing an animal, whether it was killed humanely or not. It could also be possible to prosecute any of the other groups mentioned for killing an animal, for any purpose. The Minister has stated her position that this is not the intent of the proposed changes. However, this is not reflected in the new law! Whatever the Minister’s intent is, does not matter if it is not clearly listed as an exemption! Why did the Minister accept 17 of 18 of the recommendations of animal rights groups? Civilization has evolved with an ethic of animal welfare, including the wise use, but not abuse, of animals. Animal rights groups have clearly stated their intent is to eliminate ALL use of animals by humankind. Consider this quote from the Animal Alliance of Canada website http://www.animalalliance.ca/urgent.py, on this issue: "Letter writing tips for this issue:
The amendments are primarily concerned with non-industry animal abuse situations. For the sake of ensuring that stronger penalties are introduced for victims of non-industry cruelty, please refrain from focusing on these issues. Keep in mind that the more we remind them these changes may apply to industry practices, the more they will be inclined to bend to industry pressure. In other words, do not focus on animals in research food animals, animals in entertainment or other institutionalized cruelty in your letter." (emphasis mine) The AAC does not want to invite opposition from industry groups, for fear the law would be clarified and exemptions clearly stated. Clearly, their intent is to use the proposed law to target "industry practices" or "institutionalized cruelty". Why has the Minister ignored recommendations from organizations involved in the humane use of animals? Hunting is the single greatest justification for the lawful possession of firearms by civilians. Is the Minister’s intent to eliminate hunting, thereby eliminating any need for lawful possession of firearms, leading to total confiscation? I would appreciate a response to my concerns.

I don't know what the official name of the road is (north of town),,,, but the one running west from Hwy 6 @ .... past the Guelph township conservation park towards 86 Hwy. Now.... on that road between Silvercreek and 86, on the south side there are a number of houses.I believe there are older brick ones (near the road) and somewhere in there, is a new one (couple yrs old at most. If you stand in front of that new one and face the house (south) they were at the edge of the bush at about 11 or 10 oclock from there. If I remember correctly, there was five or six. I had my mini binoc's but couldn't see much detail. the bush is at least 175 yds. off the road. Good Luck and let me know what you find. Tack

Check with the MNR, they have crown land maps that you can hunt on.

Turkey populations seem to be ever increasing around Kingston, however I am not aware of any public areas where they can be hunted. There used to be a public pheasant hunting area near Gananaque. MNR turned responsibility of this hunting area over to a private venture a number of years ago. I don't know if it still exists or if there are turkeys around it. Best bet is to check things out with the local MNR office.

I was out at the range Friday, fireforming cases for the Epps. Accuracy from the Epps chamber was acceptable for hunting
using std 303 British ammunition. I got 6 to 7 inch 10 shot groups from my P-14 at 150 yds. This is good to know should you
forget your Epps loads at home and have to buy some 303 British.
Of the initial 100 cases, only 3 were lost to splits. The UMC/Remington stuff has always been robust, and I'm happy with the
low amount of lost brass.
I will repeat this with the No 4 Epps and the work ups will begin in earnest.
Range conditions were okay for this time of year. Spring is a strange mix of good and bad weather. The sun
was shining, but there was a cold wind blowing all day with wind gusts up to 30 mph. Not condusive to the best accuracy, but
my P-14 is a hunting gun. I thought, 'Why not test it under conditions similar to those found during the hunting season?'
Great too was to see some of the people that I haven't talked with since last fall. Safe Shooting!

Hey Sheephunter, I can't believe what I just read!!!???!!! It's time for somebody to put a fire under those "old-timers" butts. It is because of attitudes like theirs allows "them" to win. "Ahn daddy, let's go home that team looks too big and mean." All of these guys bellyaching about new laws and restricts their heritage, that's terrible, "we should do something about it" " I know let's give away our heritage" "Ya, that sounds like a good idea, rihgt????"
You know, when they developed C-68 they decided that too many people were not interested in, so why should we force the to know about restricted firearms. So they segragated the program and licencing. I for one resist this by offering a combined firearms safety class. everyone gets a chance at handling the handguns and at least one in each class "upgrade" to restricted licencing. In the old class, I heard too many people say, "that's too much hassle, and BS or running around" Well if anybody wants to exercize their privilage and experience the heritage they will do what is required. I always said, regarding the excusses, there are people in the halls of the Commons in Ottawa saying, "See it's working" OR in other words, Canadians are so slack that they'll just let us do it and then nobody will have firearms. After all why do you "NEED" one anyway????
Sheephunter , you get ahold of those little winey old-timers and tell them to go ahead and resister the firearms obtain the proper licences. Once they pay the fees they are required to, you know to pay for this cash sponge, turn around and claim all the fees as business expenses. If they are in the business of guide hunting then they will most likely have a firearm, a possession licence at minimum (recommend to have a PAL) don't turn down those deals of a life time from the narrow minded scared non-commited firearms owner. Ammo and other accessories are all required for you employment. (gun cabinets... alarm systems.... use your imagination) Stay Safe, Shoot Straight, or at least keep on shooting. Tack

Again, thanks for the time taken to respond. I will be leaving for camp in early July and won't get back until late Sept., early October so I will be taking the stance of applying before I leave. I hate what is going on here in Ontario. I have lost my bear hunt, they are trying to get my guns, they are forcing me to do what I don't feel in "right" and they are trying to put me out of business. As an outfitter I cannot afford to wait to see if they will charge me. In doing so, they will most definitely defeat me in not allowing me to provide for my family. Unfortunately in our area, "the old timers" have given up and their guns are being burried, thrown in lakes and given away. Our numbers are dropping rapidly primarily all because of C-68. They are winning, whoever "they" are. We know who "we" are and we need to become more vocal and more seen. Let's get out of the closets. Oh, sorry, sorry, kinda got carried away.. know what I mean?

Points well taken. I just realized one other example I should have used. C-68 defunked the "FAC", the reason why we could still use it for the past year or so is because the ones just issued would expire about the time the transition period is ending. OR that's the reason for the date chosen to end the transition period. The legislation was written such that due to the "recent" issuing of new FAC's, these will be deemed as possession /aquisition licences (restricted level) for the purposes the transition. In other words they were really really nice and didn't force you to get a new licence after you just got a new licence. :-) Which strengthens Wes' possission of "no excuses" I agree, see my unintentional almost falme about "us Canadians" that pretty much says the same as his message. In these post I was wanting to make it clear that you "shouldn't" have criminal proccedings against you given the requirements stated.

I agree, but the area I recommend caution is to accept the idea that if it is mailed by
Dec 31 that you are covered. If I mail my driver's licence the day before my birthday, I do
not have a valid reason to drive on an expired licence. If I apply for my fishing licence
on Dec 31, I do not have a valid reason for fishing without a licence on Jan 1. If I mail
my application a firearms licence on Dec 30/00 and do not have a licence on Jan 2.2001, I cannot
blame the sytem, I must blame myself. That is why I say to use caution on when you apply. There may be a
backlog, there may not be, but which would you rather do, apply early, get your licence and be safe, or apply
late, gamble on the court accepting the defense that it was caused by a backlog, hire a lawyer to fight the case and
have to go to court. I prefer the first. We know we need the licence by December 31st and it is
up to each person to ensure they have met the law, like it or not. I feel it is unwise to leave it to the last minute and
gamble that the court will have sympathy. After all, the law has been in place since Dec 1/98 and the cour may
very well say that you have had more that enough time to apply and get your licence regardless of the backlog.
To each his own.(I got mine already)

True Wes, I agree, no licence means no ammo purchase. I also agree that the application does not mean approval. However, the CPFO's office, spacifically Walley Bauman, stated in the re-certification class that as long as the application was submitted prior to the expiry date, the applicant would not be held responsible for, or penalized for any back log or short comings of the system. Thus, the possession after the expiry date is not an issue as long as there is proof of an application in the system. Stay Safe, Tack

I would use caution. Unlike the FAC system, where an application being received before the expiry
of the FAC was considered continuous for the purpose of fee and the 28 day waiting period, the new
laws require that you have a licence to possess the firearm. An application sent before your expiry
date in November could still leave you without a licence by January if there is a big back log.
No licence means, no ammo, and illegal possession of the firearms. An application sent does not
mean the licence will be approved.

There have been problems associated with the procedures in the past. For example the machine that made the cards was down that created a three month backlog. That is only an issue if you're looking to aquire. You are NOT penalized if the expiry date is past and you have not recieved the new licence from the feds yet. NOTE: What MUST HAPPEN, is they must recieve your application prior to that expiry date. Hope that covers your concern,

I saw a news report that the Auditor General is going to delay an audit of the new Firearms Act, until it has been more fully implemented. This stinks of interference from the PMO. I guess they figure that by then, they will have found a rug big enough to sweep it all under! Waste is waste. The program has already cost 4 times more than originally estimated and has registered less than 1.5 % of the firearms out there. Most that have been registered to this point are firearms belonging to police depts. or those that have been imported since the Dec./98 implementation (though with the recent reports of Washington stopping gun and ammo exports to Canada, you can see they've managed to screw that up, too!)

Where are the options to vote for: enforcement of existing laws, hold criminals responsible for their crimes? Or the option to vote for this government to stop wasting money on a gun registration scheme that will do nothing to prevent crime, and call on them to spend these wasted millions on more effective policing of existing laws!! NONE of the recent handgun incidents in Canada or the US has anything to do with LAWFUL handgun ownership and use! However, by presenting "Do nothing" as the only option for a law-abiding citizen to oppose further wasteful legislation or an outright ban on legitimate possession, simply demonizes those citizens as being callous and unconcerned about this very real TRAGEDY and the CRIMES that led up to it! You should be ashamed. Why not simply place an editorial statement positioning yourself as soft on criminals and hard on law-abiding citizens?

If you have taken the Canadian Firearms Safety Course test, you do not have to take it again
In that case,you can wait until your FAC is going to expire before you get a licence. If you have never
passed the test, you will have to get your POL by the end of December or you cannot get one and they you will
have to take the test and get a PAL. POLs will be renewed after this year, but new ones will not be issued.

Yes it still applies. The class you took will allow you both levels of purchase. You have been tested on this material, right? and you have you JUS332 form from your instructor/examiner. (this is the pink and yellow forms) Drop by the post office and pickup an application (Aquisition) fill it out (instruction sheet accompanied) get photo (see instructions) and fees. Your file will reflect graduate of test. (check box) (* you are certified for the restricted level, at this point in the grand scheme of things this certification holds until taken away by a "god forbid" court order*) ** As long as they have the application in their hands before the present licence expires, the manditory 28 day waiting period is waved. Just so you know, some here on this site already know, I'm a CFSC & CRFSC instructor/examiner since 1994. Good luck, let me know if you need anything else. Tack

Kevin, They call it Bill C-68 This is the biggest problem I saw in the fall of 1998. Between Sept. and the end of Dec. my phone wouldn't stop ringing. "I need to get my FAC renewed before they take my guns away" or something similar to that. Just like typical Canadians, (I was born here too) we shake our heads, we complain about a section of a law because a freind heard thru five other friends that they think they heard about a law coming up to stop firearms sales or possession or something like that. "what bull<$(@" and then they go on about their lives and don't think much more about it until the media announces that next week this new law is coming into effect "save society". And the typical response is ....... "Hey, how's that going to effect me????"
Everyone that hunts or shoots that I have spoken to, outside of this forum type, bellyacked but not too many people take the time to find out what's going to happen to their precious heritage. Yes now there is the Canadian Firearms Centre, they produce and distribute all information related to the Firearms Act. Before that, if I heard of a new law or an ammendment coming I placed a call to my MP and had a copy of the bill sent to me. Is everyone out there aware that when Bill C-68 was passed there actually were blank pages in places. ("oh there, don't worry, we'll fill that in later") I just wish Canadian would stop being so complacent. Oh that's right everyone sure spoke up when the cable companies were jacking the price up didn't they.
FINAL NOTE AND ADVICE: If you have a valid FAC now, renew it before it expires and the "manditory 28 day waiting period is waved" if it expires then you submit a renewal, it is considered to be a "first time" application and once processed/approved, will be held 28 days. Ensure a two to three month cushion for processing. This time last year there was a three month back log because the machine that printed the cards broke down.

I would think that if the folks here routinely are not "cassual" users. Having the PAL instead of the POL sure would be handy for that impulsive buying. I sure everyone here can relate in some way.
Seriously.... just having fun. Good advise though. When people call me about the class the first thing I asked them is if they have any back ground, and now, what they intend on doing. Yes I like to get paid to do this, BUT I will not give the impression that "everyone" must attend the class. I try to lead by example, as I preach in the class. "Be a good embassitor to the sport" That is not done by "gouging" new commers or veterans of the sport. Shoot Safe, Tack "Life is tough ... it's alot tougher if you don't know how to shoot."

Under the firearms legislation, if you do not have a firearms licence, which includes a valid FAC
by December 31 of this year you are not allowed to own a firearm, borrow a firearm or to buy ammunition.
Even those who have owned firearms for years must get eith a "Possession Only" licence or a "Possession and Acquisition" licence by the end of the year.
There may be a big rush if you leave it too late.. Start early so you don't spoil your hunting.

No one will contact you about your upcoming expiry. Contact the OMNR in the bluepages of your phone book and they will supply you with a list of firearms instructors in your area. Contact one of those instructors and have them guide you through what is necessary to obtain a new FAC (new Firearms Licence). There are a few variables in obtaining a new Firearms Licence depending on past circumstances. Without going into great detail of those variables, I suggest you contact an area instructor for guidance. Shooter

See how easy it is to talk to people when you don't call them morons and idiots? Isn't that better? Fischer hit it on the head when he noted that Canada sells its oil off to the US cheaper than we can buy it here. Why? The other thing that really ticks me off is that I was down in the US recently. At that time our gas had gone up "only" 10 cents per liter in one week. In the US, it had gone up 4 cents PER GALLON over what it was three years before. Lately, gas has gone up 6 cents per gallon in the US while ours has skyrockted once again. Again I ask "Why?" Why the difference? We are not playing on a level playing field, someone is ripping off the Canadian consumer in gas and oil. Just like the banks are making record profits while laying off clerical staff, providing less service, making it harder for working stiffs to get mortgages while still paying their executives incredible bonuses. Bell Canada lays off staff and pleads poverty to the CRTC so they can raise our phone bills but they can scrape together 6 or 7 billion dollars for a bid to buy out CTV. Go figure. Or is that just incessant whining again? There's actually a study going on that thinks that oil is actually renewable. It's still in the early stages but they think it's a natural byproduct of the earth's metabolism. Interesting if they can prove it.

If you wanted to go on your own in the ZEC's it is quite costly. At least a few hundred for the license. You can't used 4-wheelers except to extract a shot moose. The populations are good, and you only need 2 people to get a bull or cow tag, so if you are in a small group it's a good opportunity.

It bothers me off seeing people driving around in full size 4X4 trucks and SUV's complaining that the gas costs too much. You don't need those damn things 95% of the time and if you think you do then grin and bear it. If you had a commodity that everyone wanted, I doubt you would want to use it up as quickly as possible and sell it to other people for a cheaply as they want to buy it -- would you? I'm willing to bet that when these countries run out of oil and Canada's tar sands is the only major source left, people like you will be singing a different tune, especially if Canada decided to sell the oil off cheap to other countries that need it. Then we'll hear complaining that we aren't looking out for ourselves. And when you say Canada is powerless with the decimation of our military it sure implies military force is needed. And yes, oil and gas is related to the north american way of life. But who are you going to complain to when the OPEC countries have no crude left under their sands? All the complaining in the world won't make it come back.

For geese the this last season I've been shooting
a 10 gauge in Remington Nitro Steel TT, T and
Winchester Supreme BB's. Last year I shot 12 gauge
3" T's and killed just as many as I did this year.
One of my buddy's shoot 12 gauge 2-3/4 #2 steel at
them and he does fine as long as they are within
30 yards wings open and feet down (head shot).

Retarded? Idiot? You should really take your time and learn to read before you shoot off your mouth. Where does it say in my post that the US should go in with military force? I think it IS our business when everything related to the North American way of life is connected with oil and gas. As for using it like water - do you walk to work? Does your food arrive at the supermaket by bicycle? If you go hunting or fishing - can you walk to where you hunt or fish? Do you have a pedal powered boat? You obviously don't understand anything or you work for an oil company - or maybe the Schad Foundation?

Obviously you don't know much about oil. With the prices the way they had been for the last couple years, consumption goes way up. There isn't a neverending supply of the stuff. People who use it like water should be charged for all of the costs, including environmental and research into future energy sources. The end of gasoline is nearer than most think -- inside a hundred years. And another thing, it isn't up to the US to go in with military power to force countries to reduce prices. That has to be the most retarded thing I've ever heard. For one that would make prices skyrocket as the OPEC countries would surely protest. Secondly, it isn't our business what they want to do with their oil. If you don't like the prices then walk. Nobody is forcing you use oil for anything. I'm sick of hearing all you idiots complain about something that isn't your business.

3 inch Challenger #2 has been my mainstay for 5 years now. Doesnt matter what your barrel length so long as you are shooting a mod or IC choke. Tried many others. Stayed with Challenger for all waterfowling. PS: Be sure to pattern test your gun with the shell you select.... very suprising results!!!!! Same model of 1 gun will pattern different than its sistergun Shooter

Has anyone else been out this month for Geese?? This warm spell has been great for hunting. Went out today got 1 this morning and 5 in the afternoon. Saw alot of birds in the morning but for some reason they decoyed alot better in the afternoon.

I like Bismuth in BB esp when they are out @ 40-45 yrds...in close over decoys 25 yrds or less almost anything will bring them dowm. I like BBB, T and even TT. Winchester has a round called HV Steel ( 1450 fps ) Its a nice round. With these size shots you really want a 3 1/2 12 ga or a 10 ga. to keep your shot pattern full.

Challlenger 3 inch BBB, or BB. 1400fps+ equals better knockdown. Ideally bismuth BB with a full choke, but this is pricey!!

this should make things frustrating trying to buy ammunition for the spring turkey hunt or the fall big/small game and waterfowl seasons. I suppose a person should consider buying ammunition now for the fall, if you can find any. it seems we hunters are getting it from all angles these days. if our government doesn't screw us they'll get the americans to do it for them.

All depends on what type of gun you use. I use the Remington
super mag. I like the Remington 3 1/2 in T shot of BBB
in 3" I also like the T shot or if they are really close in BB
I hope this has helped you out ? Where are you hunting ?? Sparky

I guess fearing that the liberals may face defeat in the Supreme Court challenge they have conspired with the U.S. government to stop ALL exports of firearms and ammunition to Canada.
Go to www.cila.org for the news release. I love Canada and it's sad to think I will have to move to continue to hunt but I will.
