  1. Just talked to someone that works for the Power Authority... still over 1000sq miles of ice.. they were up flying yest for inspections... needs to be around 250sq miles before they start pulling it... these warm temps are def what we need.... the boom has to be pulled by april 15th regardless of sq mile of ice

  2. wont be the county either... more than likely the town will be taking it over... either way the ramp will still be in use just not maintained... they cant close the entrance gate due to homeowners on the Island ... if i had to guess whats gunna happen if the town dont take it over is that people will lose the use of the one disgusting bathroom that the park offered, they will prolly take the cleaning station out, and no dumpster....

  3. i really havent been keeping up on the park closure situation ... but i dont think anything has been finalized yet... and even if they do close the park the ramps will still be usable just not maintained

  4. Hey Jeremy, that first pic ofthe waterfowl. Is that a brant? It's been years since I took the waterfowl ID class. I'm pretty sure it is in the goose family by the shape of the bill and it certainly isn't a canada or snow goose.

    Thanks,

    Tim

    Tim not really sure. That same bird has been showing up on the Niagara R for several yrs now during the winter months... He's not shy. The NRAA website has several pics of him as well. Saw him lastweek taking a ride on a iceberg down the river

  6. Just shot one of the Savage ML2 muzzle loaders the other day....Holy NO smoke! I was impressed with the accuracy and the extremely low recoil.

    Crome like you said...You only need one shot. I think that going to a Muzzle Loader will make me a better hunter Plus it puts a new spin on deer hunting.. Good luck with the Savage 20.....Mid summer I'll have the new smoke pole with a nice piece of glass on it.....

    i have my eye on one of those as well!!!! with the right load they are very very accurate!

  7. model 512 marlin slugmaster is another fine bolt slug gun. cant beat a savage though. i bet ur savage will make a lifetime of happy hunting and shooting. i got a few savages and rems and marlins and even a tikka. love my savages best.

    id really like to get my hands on a Browning A-Bolt 12ga... tough to find and usually cost a pretty penny

  8. you only need one shot anyways.. I always laugh when i hear these guys unloading there gun, just to make noise...

    absolutly right!!! i find it pretty funny when i hear guys say they can hit a pie plate at 50yrds and say there good to go for the season! those guys are usually the noise makers of the woods!

    alittle more bench time with the Savage i should be shooting 1inch 3shot groups at 100yds without a problem.. pretty impressed with the group with the Federals.. might try the 3in accutips once more as the 2 "flyers" could of been me? or the wind? more range time will tell

    i think this still be my fav slug gun that i own tho

    H&R Ultra Slug Hunter 20ga

    its a tack driver!

    ill get some pics of the groups next time i hit the range

  9. Well finally got to put some rounds through my new Savage 220.. winds were alil more than i like 10mph and swirling. but with most of my fav steelhead streams frozen i needed to do something on my day off. just did some testing to see what slug was gunna shoot the best out of it... fine tuning will come at a later time

    after getting it on the paper at 50yds i backed off to 100yds and started to let them fly

    Overall the gun shoots and feels great.. This is my first savage and the accu-trigger is great didnt do any adjustment to it... tested some other slugs as well but the results werent good ... Savage was right on the mark with suggesting the Rem accutips and Federals!
