All I wore last year to work outside was my Rocky Insulated/waterproof bibs, a pull over sweatshirt and a Schmidt thermal hooded sweatshirt or a really old gortex Carhart hooded jacket. That kept me warm running an unheated/open skid loader or whatever else I was doing,
I tend to dress like I...
I would have to break out the OLD eddie bauer goose down arctic parka for this stuff. This wind would suck..
I hunted in -5 with -20 windchills with that on. Half of me was warm.
I have been using 150gr Fusions in my 270. I shot 5 or 6 whitetail buck and only one wasn't a bang & flop. Range was 50 yards to 190 yards. The one who didn't instantly flop over was a heart/lung shot. He went down and couldn't get back up.
The 8point in December fell over on his side like a...
We tri-flow on our exterior (and interior) commecial locks at work. We buy it by the case, It doesn't gum up or hold dirt. You could probably use kroil too but a deer might smell you 2 miles away for the first week or so.
I just looked at Dixons a few weeks ago but I don't remember what they had.
Hornady Great Plains PA Conical (per Hornady website)

Kroil (a must on any reloaders workbench)
Dental picks
Pipe cleaners
Tipton shooters swabs
A good set of gunsmithing tools
Belding & Mull powder measure (have 2 and they are the easiest thing to use for...
Remind me next year and I will get a local doe tag. Then I can run around after Christmas with the smokepole here too.
I was looking around for a local lease but I haven't found anything. I screwed up about 10 years ago or I would have been able to get a 50 acre farm for just posting and...
Not where I hunt in central PA. We are closed 1/10/15.
I think you can hunt 2 weeks longer here in Berks, etc. One of these years I will find a new place to hunt around here.
Congrats. Always nice to christen the new firearm.
120gr must have a decent kick unless the flintlock has decent weight. I tried a max load of 150 in an inline once and decided I wasn't going to stick with it. Shooting that in a tshirt was interesting.
I would love to find a roundball and...
