  1. Bought some plexiglass for about $3,then got two 8 inch wide 3 foot long rips from the trash at work for free ? Anyhow turned out pretty good
  2. Thank you! Is that a double sheet trammel net ? Looks like its very well constructed but only counting yes sets of netting. Night just being the way I'm looking. That a sea net or for great water ?
  3. Thanks I made this little video a while back when I was first trying but haven't had much time to mess with it much more Managed some turtles but after talking to one of the guys at the commercial fishing supplier I visited he reccomed I do some different things because the fish where most likely just swing the net and turing around due to the. Fact their in a pond and don't really have to go anywhere
  4. Mak s sense, I just picked up a bunch of supplies and figured id go about learning how to build and fish nets in some of the local ponds. Alot if then are choked with stunted bluegill,bass and what not a nd need to be cleaned out. Bought some commercial made nets but they where lacking so figured I'd just make my own and mabye ask around since theirs not that much info online.
  5. But once I get the accuracy and power down I'll probably be trying there's on hogs and mabye some fox and coyote if I can ever get my preator calling set up and running. But I do have a few more calibers to cast for as well. The Hornet will probably be a starling and grackle slayer. NOE has a 38gran HP mold I really like the looks of and have here it preforms wonderfully in the hornet on game
  6. I'd like to but no matches or anything local lol. Closest I'd get is mabye me and another guy at the range seeing who can shoot what better. I am just trying it out but I tend to go overboard when I try something ? Especially if I'm doing videos, really wanna squeeze as much performance and accuracy as I can and see just how good I can get them to work
  7. ? hmm think I'll try some perspex, pretty sure that's plexiglass over here. I'll have to price some when I go in for work. No clue why I never thought of of it before ? Thanks!
  8. Interesting. Thought netting for commercial fishing was a thing over there . Guess I was mistaken ?
  9. Any of you guys happen to gill net or rig your own nets ?
  10. What do you guys use to make your mesh gauges ? Usually just use my fingers but need more to be more precise with certain styles of nets. Sorry if this is the wrong place to ask this by the way wasn't 100% sure if I should asked this here ,fishing or trapping ?
  11. You have a point ! It does have a certain charm to it ?
  12. AR-15's and similar require you do a full length sizing. Unless you have one if the bolt action uppers your going to have to full length size . I generally full length resize all my brass though. Not to mention 70%if my brass are range pickups.( Probably have close to 2000 piece if various .223/5.56 brass j picked up for free at the local range. One man's trash and all that.)I want to be able to measure my shoulder bump to make sure I'm working my brass down only as much as I need (like 3 thousands mabye 5 but that's it). Found out that just using my dues the way the instructions say had me p
  13. So finally got the little mutant back up and runnnig ! Got to the point with a little bit of grease a slave pin, two punches and a small ballpeen hammer I can have this thing taken apart and put back together in about 10min. Anyhow ended up snapping another firing pin anvil and ened up using on made for a shotgun of a tip from a fella on another forum,works great ! Also ended up the hammer can't problem I was having was due to my firing pin having a chip in it. Some work with the Dremel fixed that. Also had to take some 1000 grit sand paper and a sharping stone and polish all the pivot and sea
  14. Well got my sorting and BHN testing video done gonna be around the 25th before I can do any actual realoding. Found out both of my calipers are lacking and need to order a new par to properly measure my shoulder bump. Also had to order a universal recapping die so I can make a split case and measure my rifles CBTO. If it's not on thing it's another ?
  15. Lovely pictures! Where those rabbits shot on the run ?
  16. Looks like fun ! One of my favorite YouTubera does alot of black powder shooting. Guy is hungarian and has an amazing channel if your into black powder. https://youtu.be/sCGg6NMCYMU But yeah a muzzle loader is on the bucket list but haven't quite found what I want exactly. Have been looking at kits for a bit but no one seems to makes a .32cal kit that's doesn't cost less than $600 would buy a complete rifle but why do that when you can do a kit and ad some personal touches lol
  17. Well sat down and weighted out 177 of the powder coated ones on my RCBS chargemaster light. Figured I'd sort them in .5grain lots before gas checking. Ended up with this Seems like I'm dropping between 1.0gr-1.5gr on average which I guess for what I'm doing isn't the worst thing in the world . It might just be how I'm powder coating but after sorting 177 powder coated ones I wasn't feeling like doing another 150-200 regular ones lol ? Also did a bhn test because I was curious. With my Lee BHN tester my none power coatd bullet wa around 15BHN (this was poured then dropped in a pail of
  18. Lol or a fox,or otter,beaver,coyote ,coon,possum? really want legal furbearing animal. Dude friggen slays fur. Build a whole bussiness and live offa fur money for a while. He has a pretty good free podcast BTW lots of stuff on trappings snaring shooting gardening business ect something y'all might find interesting http://trappingradio2.com/
  19. Depends on the animal state time if year and so on. Cats are almost always sold for fur year round. The glands ,skulls,claws and teeth are with a good bit too if you know how to market. Depending on the year and market a decent bellied cat ( when I say that I'm referring to how white the belly fur and spots are ) can average $50-$250 if put up right but on high years good ones can average $500-$2000 on top lots. Not hard to sell a cleaned skull for $10-$20 on ebay or something . Even seen a few people who carve paint and decorate them and re sell them for a good profit. Lots for peopl
  20. Wonder what the international postal laws be on mailing a spent case over there ?got a couple along with shot bullets with nice rifling marks laying around the house
  21. Depending on state they will go after stuff as large as goats. Generally if they go after live stick though is going to be stuff like chickens , they are hell on wild turkey ,quail ,pheasants and rabbits. But in places like caliafornia where they've gotten so used to people they will attack digs cats and people as well .Lots of control trappers get paid good money to get them off the big game ranches in Texas and such. Where theirs good food and cover they can become kinda prolific. Think this guy ( clint locklear if anyone is curious) said he's been averaging 150 or so off of two ranches for
  22. Makes sense I was wondering because the fur color and size looked pretty similar to ours
  23. What state are y'all in ? That belly fur has me curious.
  24. I actually have a Lee BHN tester and I need to check a few to get a average buts if this is some what accurate I should hopefully be around 20. With a power coat and a gas check it should be good
  25. Looks like somone took a kuro and welded a bunch of extra stuff to it ?
