Hello everyone! I'd like to wish you all a Happy New Year! Hopefully 2021 may bring us a cure to the Corona virus. But most of all I hope that we all have collected a lot of wonderful hunting memories one year from now. In two hours time we turn the page here in Sweden. /Jarre Skickat från...

Hello, I haven't experienced these problems. The forum works great from my Android phone using Tapatalk. I'm in the southwest of Sweden. /Jarre Skickat från min SM-A520F via Tapatalk

Thanks! They have been quite frequent visitors at the feeder station, but at very bad, from my point of view, times. I was watching two mature sows with six piglets at the feeder, when these two spooked the older ones. Never seen that before. Older sows tend to be grumpy towards strange pigs...

@FOTIS: Thank you very much! @mjcmichigan: I've excluded solids just to avoid a "hide-and-seek game" with a fox or badger stuck in a burrow. When it comes to more suitable calibers I'm stuck with 6.5x55 because of the gun regulations in Sweden. 22LR isn't enough and 7mm RM or 9.3x62 are way...

Hello, As a new member I would like to thank you all for having me onboard! I' looking at a new varmint load for my 6.5x55 Swedish. Mainly used to take down red fox and badgers. Currently I'm using a Sierra Varminter HP (#1700) 85gr backed up by 44gr Norma 202 in Norma cases. It leaves the...
