So do you cover the end of your barrel with tape during snow and rain?

If these cold spells continue we may get to hunt quite a bit in the snow this season!

I agree. Doesn’t matter to me personally but would be nice to have that across the street. It’s not like we get more than a limit of 1

Yeah and they complain when we go down there and hunt. I am still trying to get one this year.
