I've had a 460 Puma Cadet that my Uncle bought in 1981, Since 1988 when he gave it to me, And i also have a Buck 309V that i've had since the early 90's. Both lasted this long
hunting actually helps preserve ecology pending the harvests are well monitored by wildlife management agencies. A few examples: Too much wildlife can lead to disease and sickness. Too much of one species can lead to the displacement or decline of other species. Too many animals can also lead to the destruction of natural vegetation (like wild boars), which will cause starvation among other animals.
Hi! Just bought this gun. So far I’m really enjoying it for trap. The red dot that appears at the end of the video….. was that a “sight”? I’m looking for something like that to improve my accuracy. What brand was that? Liked your video!😮
I have a puma general pocket knife, it's a little bigger than the prince. What I like about them is they have a hole in the handle for a lanyard, which comes in handy as you don't need to put the knife down when skinning animals.
the lanyard hole is handy. my main hunting knife is currently a benchmade altitude; it's not very big but gets the job done well for a variety of game. it also has a lanyard hole i put some paracord in. i do my best to wash the paracord, but eventually it does get smelly; luckily it's an easy replacement.
Kent is widely available in the USA and Canada, so if that's a factor Kent worked well in 4 different shotguns tested, same with Score. Kent also has a wide selection of shot sizes whereas the score is limited to BB, 2, 3, and 4. The Kent is also more corrosion resistant. If you're in Canada, the Score shell does perform just as good even though it's substantially cheaper (likely due to import fees on ammo) so I'd recommend score over kent. since doing this video i'm almost exclusively using score shells. i've even called their factory and they were awesome to deal with.
@@attananightshadow Thankyou for the feedback. I have used Kent, but I have never seen the Score brand here in the USA. I was just curious which was the best in your opinion if cost wasn't a factor.
@@owatonnasaveragejoe Score, slightly higher velocity and seems to pattern well enough with most modified and IC chokes. it's not available in the US though.
😂 You almost had me going, but I knew there must be a catch when he wolfed it down so enthusiastically! Even though dogs are not considered purely carnivorous, they are right up there!
It's doing well; the only replaced part has been the heavy load piston which Weatherby sent me as they share parts. It has over 5000 rounds through it, most of them have been 3" hunting loads.
Considering you said you’re trying to travel as light as possible, I’d say you have everything you need. I am happy to see someone with a gun cleaning kit. You never know when or if you or a buddy will need it. I always clean my gun after every hunt and I carry an all in 1 gun cleaner/ lube in my gun case and a small rag.
I carry my Puma Prince and Puma Game Warden knives in belt sheaths or pouches made by Carl Thomas in St.Christian,Ms.He makes any kind or model of sheath for folder or fixed blade knives that you need.Excellent workmanship and materials,even snake or lizard skins are available for about any knife.Very reasonable prices also.Great guy to work with.
depends how much you use it more than years for repairs. The ATA has been solid for 6000 rounds without any major malfunctions due to the gun being broken. for some; 6000 rounds is 1 year, for others it could be 10-15. i'd recommend the one that fits you the best above anything.
TriStar shotguns have really improved in quality from several years ago. I just bought the TT-15 Sporting model and it is really a nice gun for the money. Fit and finish is great and I checked the internals of the gun and they were clean and smooth. Wood to metal fit is top notch and mine has a nicely figured stock. I have a Hunter EX from 10 years ago and today's gun is much more refined.
Just went on a fun sharptailed hunt with my wife, the tristar didn’t miss a beat. We limited out. As said in the video, it’s a really good bush gun. Works well and you don’t need to worry about scratching something expensive.
I owned this model from 2012 to 2018 and it's a great shotgun. it is very light and comfortable. With this gun, I killed Roe Deer at a distance of over 100 meters, ducks, geese and hares up to 75 meters. However, this gun has a small drawback - the return spring is easily corrodable. make sure that snow and water do not get there. if problems with recharging begin, check this spring first.
yes, you're right; the coatings on this gun are not to the standard of higher grade shotguns, so corrosion protection and making sure it's dry after it is in humidity is important.
I was wondering if you could tell me how the Tacoma compares to your F150 in terms of ride, fuel economy and build quality. We are looking at downsizing from our F150 and any insight you may have would be appreciated. Thanks
Hey, Ride smoothness is close to the same, the F-150 has more accommodating seats and driver positions than the Tacoma; which I'd factor into how it drives. Fuel Economy: I averaged 13.9L/100km with the 5.0 F-150, the 3.5L Tacoma driving in the same manner is returning 10.7L/100km, almost a 25% difference. Both are riding on the same tire, sort of; F-150 is a Dynapro AT2 LT and the Tacoma is just a regular Dynapro AT2; both using the factory tire size. I'll note that in a strong headwind the Tacoma will start downshifting on the highway and return worse mileage; the 5.0 F-150s and 3.5TTs don't. Build Quality: the Tacoma has a lot better body gap alignment, the physical controls are more tactile, but the paint seems pretty soft (would scratch easily) I helped this by Ceramic coating the truck when I got it. Also, underneath the Tacoma is wide open and very easy to understand. with the exception of the oil filter, I'd say the Tacoma has better user serviceability, though not by much compared to an F-150. Out of the half-tons we've driven over the years, the 2009 and newer F-150s do seem to drive smaller than they are, which is nice. It's easy to know where the front end of an F-150 is because they don't have overly bulging hoods (like GM) and the dash is relatively shallow. My tacoma and F-150 are about the same length, though the Tacoma is quite a bit narrower, which makes navigating some city areas easier. the 2024 tacoma will have a turbo 4, like the ranger and gm midsizes, but the tacoma will have the dual injection system, unlike the GMs and Ranger... pure direct injection will require additional maintenance every 100,000kms or so. (here it's $600-800 for a shop to 'clean' carbon build up)
@@attananightshadow Thank you kindly for the very detailed response. Just have to figure out if we should get a 2023 or hold for the 2024. Thanks again
@@mdmattmann sorry for the late reply. I swapped the Toyo A31s and DynaPros at the same time a TRD air filter was put in, so didn't notice a mileage change. The road noise is a bit more on the AT2s, but it's not obnoxious like Duratracs or other AT tires.
This is the closest you’ll get to an English double with hammers, if that’s what you’re wondering. I really want one too. Just not willing to pay $200,000 for one. Even the Baikals are $5000.
the venza is a much more modern gas system, which tends to reduce recoil more and doesn't need to change pistons to fire different types of shells like the CY does. The CY is very simple, but pistons need to be swapped from light to heavy depending on the shells. Pros and cons to both, I think both would serve you well. I haven't heard anything bad about the Venza apart from it has it's own choke system that doesn't have aftermarket support, whereas my CY uses the very common mobil chokes.
bronze and wood. the only thing camo dipping has going for it is a water barrier that doesn't need oiling. camo dipping starts being glossy after a few years unless you use dull-coat on it to keep it flat, which most people don't; so the camo serves no purpose other than a water barrier. most hunters are concealed in a blind of sorts, their gun too. if you wave around a camo shotgun, they'll still see it.
i think CZ has (or had) several lengths available in the US market in the hammer classic; from a coach gun all the way up to a 32, including a 30. Think the available lengths are: 20, 24, 28, 30, 32. The 20 does not have choke options though and is cylinder.
@@attananightshadow I just special ordered the 20". I was contemplating getting the 30" for target shooting. Let's see if the finances will allow it in the future haha.
