How easy is it to find ammo? I don't think I have ever seen a 5 mm before

That looks like the one. How do you like it?

I am really leaning towards the .17 from Cabelas. By the time I would buy a new stock and barrel for my .22 I would be spending more than the new gun.

I just got around to looking at the most recent Cabelas ad and they have a Savage .17 with the heavy barrel and scope for $300 dollars. I am not sure of what model it is but it looks like a good deal to me.

So I am trying to decide if I should get a new stock and barrel for my 10/22 or get a .17. Here are my options I am looking at: A) Get a thumbhole stock and heavy barrel for my current 10/22- Pros- Cheaper, already have a scope, clips, ect, CONS- Really none to be honest, B ) My local Scheels has a used 10/22 for around $140, buy that and buy a thumbhole stock and barrel for it, PROS- I would have 2 guns, one for beating around in the woods and one for target/ long shots, CONS- Cost more, need to buy another scope, C) Scheels also has a deal on a .17 HMR, I can't for the life of me remember what model it is but I believe it is a savage of some sort, It has a thumhole stock, heavy barrel and scope for $550. PROS- A little more power from the .17, once again, 2 guns, CONS- $$$ Anyone have any thoughts on the issue? Thanks

The xBox 360 Pro is most likely the console you want. I have the elite and it comes with a headset (not sure if the pro does or not) that is used for online play, 2 games, a 120 gb HD, hdmi cable and is all black. I didn't need the elite because the Pro would have worked but I felt like paying the extra $100 for the games and HDMi cable. You will need an extra controller because it only comes with one.

Go to the central part of the state and you will see tons of live pheasants. Last year a group of us got 90 in our 2 days out and we had probably that many get away from us.

During the rifle season in SD we are required to wear it. I always wear my orange vest and my bright green hat. I am planning on Archery hunting this year and probably won't wear orange. Where I will be hunting I will be the only one there and it isn't heavily wooded so I would be able to tell if anyone else is there.

I found a Parker HunterMag II today for $200 at Scheels. Does anyone have any experience with them?

I am a few miles outside of Parker.

http://www.cabelas.com/prod-1/0046351418162a.shtml Here is one that I am looking at. I realized that the BuckHunter XP is a different bow than this one. I am also looking at this PSE Novw SU http://www.cabelas.com/cabelas/en/templates/product/standard-item.jsp?_DARGS=/cabelas/en/common/catalog/item-link.jsp_A&_DAV=netcon&id=0063480418745a&navCount=9&podId=0063480&parentId=cat600266&masterpathid=&navAction=push&catalogCode=IK&rid=&parentType=index&indexId=cat601233&hasJS=true

I have been reading around and the Parker Buck Hunter XP looks to be a good deal. $300 for everything to get started. Anyone have any experience with this bow? From what I have read on here, Parker seems to make some pretty good bows. Thanks for the help guys.

I've shot my brother-in-laws bow a few times and really enjoyed it. I really want to try archery to challenge myself a little more and try out some new hunting. I really like being in the outdoors by myself and this is another way to do it. I have a good friend who has worked in the archery department at Scheels for a couple years so I am going to talk to him a bit about it.

Well the reason I want to wait to take the archery course is because I want to make sure I have the time and money to invest into it before I take the course. I don't want to take the course and realize how much I want to start archery hunting, and then realize I can't afford it. What would I need to begin hunting? Bow, arrows, etc etc

I am toying with the idea of starting archery hunting. I was wondering what a good, reasonably priced bow is. I am a pretty good sized guy if it matters.I was also wondering what some good starting accessories were. The area I plan to hunt is fairly flat with a good amount of pine trees around. I think a ground blind would be the only way to hunt. No one I really know is into archery so it is an unknown for me. If I do decide to try it out I will take an archery course. Thanks
