    I recently built 2 woodduck boxes out of 1x12 pine. The plans called for cedar but they did not have 1x12 and I did not want to spend a fortune. I coated the outside of the boxes in polyurethen (sp). I did not spend a lot to do this. I hope they hold up. I pulled the plans from a book I got from the DNR in my state.

          Nope and wrong on the 6.5 Creedmoor. The Creed kills them just as dead as the .30-06, 25-06, and 270 but with much less recoil. I've used both the .30-06...

          Between Winchester and Browning and others, 40 rifles are chambered for the 6.8 Western. Question is, will the 6.8 surpass the 6.5 CM in popularity...
