    Did it make the jump?

    Just for reference: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC4012792/ I did see a scholarly article (years ago, may have referenced it in a college paper) about a study where macaques developed cwd after cerebral injection but not orally (consumption of cwd positive venison). However...

    Did it make the jump?

    It's definitely better than no test at all.

    Did it make the jump?

    This is the way that it was presented to me when I discussed it with the lab. It's the reason why your lymph node test results don't say "negative" the results say not detected.

    Montana (and other state) hunter orange laws out dated?

    I don't mind wearing orange on public property, but why should I be required to wear orange on my own private property in multiple states?

    Did it make the jump?

    Very few people keep meat for the duration of the incubation period of prion diseases in humans. You're looking at a decade or more in some cases.

    Did it make the jump?

    Presumably, you'd do it the same way that I do. Remove and send the retropharyngeal lymphnodes to a lab for testing.

    New ATF rule for firearm sales

    Profit is part of their qualification for dealer status. The wording no longer includes livelihood. Apparently you also qualify for dealer status if you sell multiples of the same make and model of firearm. So If you have duplicates in your possession that are purpose specific and you want to...

    New ATF rule for firearm sales

    Then you'd probably be surprised. I got a heck of a deal on it. In any case, I'm not sure that inflation factors into their judgement of profit. To top that, plenty of us make upgrades to our firearms in terms of aftermarket stocks, barrel modifications and more. How many people keep every...

    Turkey leg recipe?

    To each their own I suppose, but I'll never grind a turkey breast. Take the breast, slice it into 2 inch chunks, pound it flat, season and batter with egg and panko crumbs and fry. Put it on a bun with a squeeze of lemon juice and seasoned mayo, maybe a slice of tomato. As for the legs, cook...

    New ATF rule for firearm sales

    I don't have a law degree, but I'm pretty sure that Bruen establishes that firearm regulation must be based on history and tradition. Americans have a long standing history and tradition of being able to sell their privately owned firearms collections at market value without being an ffl or...

    Is there a lightweight 20 gauge with a rifled barrel?

    The heavy barrel ultra slug hunter was capable of accuracy that most people didn't believe at the time. I used to keep a folder with targets that were sub 1" 3 shot 20 gauge groups with lightfield hybrid exp ammo (7/8 oz sabot). Quite a few deer fell to that little single shot out to 175 yards.

    Is there a lightweight 20 gauge with a rifled barrel?

    H&R/NEF Had a few versions of the non-bull barreled 20 and 12 gauge rifled shotguns. There was the tracker and tracker II series which came with rifle sights and either rifled or IC bore, and later there was the ultralight slug barrel in either 12 or 20 gauge. Both of these were in the 5-6 lb...

    Corned venison recipe?

    I used the recipe from a field and stream article last week. It calls for Mortons tender quick and instead of pink curing salt. It was very simple and I enjoyed the results. https://www.fieldandstream.com/blogs/the-wild-chef/recipe-how-to-make-corned-venison/?amp -edited because the...

    Unexpected Result

    Strange things happen sometimes. Factory ammo is usually, but not always reliable. I once shot a rabbit at 20 yards with a 40 grain cci 22 mag. The rabbit ran away leaving small drops of blood in the snow. I found the bullet in the snow where the rabbit had been sitting. I've shot a lot of...

    Dont be like me, buy a range rod

    I had something similar happen when I was a kid. Removable breech plugs weren't a thing yet, and I had an old cva sidelock with a wooden ramrod. Somehow rhe last 4 inches of the wooden rod snapped off with the patch I was using to clean. All my efforts to remove it only succeeded in pushing...
