Fleroo... I'll try to add my .02 cents from time to time... I was one of the original members when Dutch started the site up... Loggy came about the same time... I think Loggys hoarding all the 460 WeatherBy ammo as you can't even find that... I've been looking for CCI magnum 209 primers for close to 2 years now.. Dutch you been back to Lake Ontario lately???

Dutch is now married... and retired. He has to mind his money, AND his P's & Q's.

Good Morning Gentlemen...Sitting here doing nothing I thought to myself let's see if Dutch's site is still active.. I haven't been on in many moons, but password was still active (unlike other site where I got banned for non participation) so here's my take on the ideal Pa. Deer rifle: First off. During these wonderful times we are living in, the key issue is "Ammo"... Your stuck using whatever caliber you have a box of ammo for.. Love carrying my Marlin 336 in 35 cal. Many deer and bears having been taken with this cartridge in Pa...Today if out in Pa. I'd move up a little to my Remington 700 Classic in 35 Whelen... Throughout the years in Pa. probably the most popular rifle by far is the Remington 760 in 30/06... So for what it's worth that's my opinion... Hi Rich!!! Great to see you back in here!! Been a few years since our Ontario trip with Capt Bill and that memorable NJ striper trip!

Loggy... We definately had some memorable fishing trips... I hate to say but Capt. Bill passed about 2 years ago.. I believe his wife is still running the Feeder Creek Lodge operation... Our striper trips were EPIC... That was alot of fun and we caught quite a few fish...Hope all is well with you and the family...

I haven't seen a box of 30-06 on the shelf in nearly two years. I see plenty of 308 ammo. If I was choosing between the two today it would be a no brainer. And yes the choice would be between those two and not a 6.5 anything After I scored yesterday on HPA's classifieds I'm now up to 18 boxes of 30-30 ammo. I shouldn't have to worry now

With your return, limited or not, this site is now up to TEN active posters. It's a "tight-knit" group. A little cabal of degenerates. Kind of like the PGC's BOC. I'm not a degenerate, the rest of yinz are tho. Lol

Larry... I remember that day like it was yesterday.. We sure did have a heck of a bunch of guys... That was a day they will always remember.... I think everyone caught some fish... Remember the bunker on top the water, you could just about walk on them... Like I said EPIC...Doesn't get any better...

Did the fish weigh more than the fishermen?

That HUGE pod of bunker had the water surface bubbling/churning about the size of a football field. First I ever did that "drop & snag" technique which obviously was a deadly method.
