    No I can't see any pressure signs on that peice. If it was so over pressure the bolt was sticky, their should be ejector marks around the headstamp and the primer should be flattened some. Weird! Seeing is believing though.

    It could be worse, you could live in england and be getting shafted at every possible opportunity by our government. We are headed there in a hurry now. In a couple years your gonna look up and say what the hell happened over there.

    Might I remind yall that the USA is the land of the free and the home of the brave. Survey must be flawed. That being said, this time next year I'm certain our freedom will be cut in half and we will be considered sexist homophobes if we recognize a difference between the sexes. Sad times ahead for our Country no matter which candidate left in the running gets elected now.

    suppose with that many breeds in the mix, your not really going to know what genes the pup will pick, but it sounds like it will be big type stag ideal for yote work .i did see the one day at my old place, a tosa x the bloke said it had bit of greyhound in it, it looked like racey type dane with big head lol dont think it would catch much lol , but he said it was not bad guard dog .. You are right!

    I just read this thread. Sir you were saying your primers were fine and showing no signs of an over pressure. I think you had better look at the primer of a fired factory round that's been fired through your gun and go back and compare that to the rounds you were having the trouble lifting the bolt with after you had fired them. A primer will show signs of over pressure well before the bolt gets noticeably different to lift. If you want to be serious about reloading and working loads up and finding a good nod, then it would be in your best interest to really study the primers fire

    Often times ignorance is bliss and the person is blissfully unaware of their ignorance and lack of true understanding. Often times this is coupled with a desire to be noticed and when their ignorance is pointed out they get defensive and double down and become combative and argue their already disproven point. Others just do it because they like stirring up crap and are jelous of people who have a greater understanding about something than they do. That my take away from people like that.

    I'm hoping to acquire a cane corso x pit bull. If that dog works well for the niche I hope it fills, then I will cross it to a wolfhound deerhound greyhound dog of mine. It has a tall order to to fill but it comes from working dogs so maybe it will develop into a well performing dog. Only then will I make the cross.

    Your kinda right and their is a reason for that.

    Might just be me reading into this but this reads as if your wanting to catch the bigger game because of your wants for a big enough dog to handle most game. But you are opposed to adding bull blood for taking the hard fighting and more powerful game and are wanting to breed away from the catch and kill type mentality of the sight hound by adding working type blood of the collie. I'm not saying the collie won't catch and kill smaller stuff but that breed in its pure form isn't going to willing take on and fight to kill or catch a coyote or bigger game by itself. So when your adding this to

    Sounds like something they naturally do. Most house dogs alert their owners to people outside the house before the owners are aware of them. Lots of hog dog guys rig their dogs so they can see the visual cues their dogs give off when they smell the scent of a pig. I can tell when my dogs smell one just by their body language and I've never worked with them in such. Just let them run and catch a few pigs. Release a dog to a few rabbits. After that, it will probably whine when it sees the next one or stare really intensely at it until you unsnap the dog and let it run. It's real

    Have you ever looked on Vargys coyote board. Pretty much the biggest outlet for saleing and buying working lurchers and long dogs in the US. Most of which are bred for running down and killing coyotes. Few of us here in the US use lurchers for boar also. Slightly different dog than that of the coyote guys. The Hawaiians run a lot of lurchers for pigs but they are different kind than the few of us that catch pigs similar to the Aussie style. The two different styles require different kind of lurchers.

    If you got it, flaunt it. If not, then keep covered.

    Yellow cat won't bite much on dead bait. They prefer live bait such as perch and big gizzard shad. I catch one now and then on fresh cut bait though. Big blue cat are not as picky as yellow cat but still so picky that they are rarely caught by the average angler on any consistent basis. Big blues will hit live bait and fresh cut bait but won't hit previously frozen bait like they will freshly caught and cut bait. As the cut bait gets older if it's kept on ice before using, the less they will pick it up. I know as much about shad (their preferred forage fish and the primary bait I use)

    I've fished a couple times up in Alaska where I work for Halibut. Biggest I've caught was 103 pouds. Second biggest was 72 pounds This was the 72 pounder

    I don't eat the big ones. I used to but the more catfish I ate, the more I preferred the smaller fish do to only to the texture of the meat when I ate it. The meat fiber is just a bit more course on the really big fish but still really good. Lake and river fish are really good to eat. I like to fish the really muddy water lakes because the catfish are usually the supreme predators in it and the bait fish like shad prefer it to clear water also and do really well in it because they are not as preyed upon by other fish. Catfish caught out of lakes and rivers, no matter how muddy t

    Blues and yellow cat are close in size they can possibly grow to but the blue is the bigger of the two. Both can grow over 100 pounds. I just looked up the world records on each and because I did not know the yellow cat and wanted to see if the blue cat had changed hands again. Yellow cat is 139 pounds and the blue is 143 Pounds. I'm pretty certain there are consistently more blues caught over 85 pounds then there are yellow cat though. It's not something that is done very often with either of them though. My personal best so far is 60 pounds. The lakes I fish have not
  17. BlackStreak
    Yes pretty much as W.Katchum said. When the water warm up to around 78 degrees or there close different species will start spawning. I believe the blues like I fish for spawn before the yellow cat but use a lot of the holes the yellow cat do to spawn. Yellow cats or flat heads as I call them, others call them appaloosas especially in the Lausiana area are the primary targets of the noodlers. Often times these nests will be under big rocks, cement slabs, ends or edges of boat ramps, man made nest boxes such as an old metal 55 gallon drum that's been sunk with a hole in each end that wi

    Not that I know of. In Lausiana they can run deer with dogs but they use beagles and hounds of one form or another. I don't k ow the rules of that or why they wouldn't try to catch them with dogs. Instead I think they run them to gun. Maybe just personal preference or some kinda law prohibiting them from catching. I've been around a lot of oilfield guys from Lausiana and heard a lot of talk but if I've asked why no catching, I've forgot what was said
  19. BlackStreak
    I've been around some half cur half bulldog types of one breed or another but never a Leppard colored strain of bulldogs.
  20. BlackStreak
    Yes noodling has been legalized here in Texas as of 2 or 3 years ago. You only have a short window each year to noodle though because it's only effective when the fish are spawning. I'm sure your very aware of that though. I'm not an active noodler though but I like most anything like that. Yes those fish are very edible. I fish for the big ones but once I catch them, I just take a picture and release them back into the water unless I'm taking them to get them certified as records. Even then after certifying them, I release them. I catch smaller ones also which I eat. I e

    I haven't had any issues with my dogs grabbing anything but the ear, however some dogs such as the stags don't always make head dogs. They might only go as far up the pig as the elbow. A dogs that's concentric circle does not center around the head /ear of a pig would be hard pressed to get an ear dog out of. To many dogs that catch ear naturally for me to need to train one. Heck I wouldnt even know how to over come this. Some young dogs won't lug up on the ear everytime. Sometimes they will other times they might catch on the rear or elbow. As long as the young dog lugs up on
  22. BlackStreak
    Yes there are a lot of guys using those breeds. The apbt dominate the scene but a good many use American Bulldogs and Dogo's The dogo comes with a lot of trumped up hype and at a huge price tag and don't fill a niche that the pits and AB don't already do. If a dogo was a little faster they would come closer to filling the hype of a do it all type pig dog of a pure breed type dog. As it is though they need to be crossed with either a Dane or stag in order to reach my requirments of an all around dog and get out of the same niche as what the much cheaper and easier starting, faster maturing, mo
