I have a Baikal IZH94 in 12GA/.223 Like New. Can ship to your FFL. You have an offer?
Thanks but .223 is NOT legal for where I deer hunt - the 7.62X39 is. Best Regards - AQH
for catalpa worms try here http://www.catawbaworms.com/live-catawba-worms.aspx#:~:text=Catawba%20Gold%20Bait%2C%20LLC,-Legendary%20Catawba%20Worms
Thanks 'pulsarnc' - but I don't know anyone here who has been successful going that route. That;s why I want to find some as local as I can. My many thanks for keeping a watch-out for me. Best Regards - AQH
Just checked some trees down the road. Got a good crop of worms ready in about 3 days and another crop just hatched . I had forgotten about these trees till your ad jogged my memory will definitely keep them harvested and freeze what I don't immediately use . Lots of small sprouted trees i will try to transplant .
I have 4 catalpa trees.I never had to establish worms( I think they are Sphinx moth caterpillars) they just show up every year.Some years all the trees have them and sometimes maybe one or two.Some years there will be worms early summer and again in the fall.
My trees are the only ones within several miles - the moths can't fly that far from any area that may have worms.
Best Regards - AQH
Is this a catalpa tree?
No - that is a redbud tree - Cercis canadensis - member of the legume family - quail are the only wildlife that I have ever seen eat the seeds from those 'pods'. Catalpa trees have 'pods' that look like long skinny cigars when they turn from green to black. Best Regards - AQH
Finally - took a while - found these on GunBroker auction side: Wanted / Starline brass - 327 Federal - & - 32-20 - & - 45 auto-rim.
Still need need all the rest - plus I need shell holders for 12 - 16 - 20 - 28 gauge for RCBS single stage press.
Best Regards - AQH
I just ripped through all my reloading stuff for .223 bullets for the hornet, and no luck. all I have is .224. I think my dad might have some. I will check with him in the morning. If he does, I will send them out. My dad has a ton of stuff, and I will see what parts and reloading stuff he has. Oakie
I called dad today. He doesn't have any . I will check with the guys at the gun club. we all reload. If I find any, I will post it to ya all. I copied your list and will post it at our club. By the way, I really enjoy your Christmas cards every year. Thank you my friend.
