Stretchers and Proper care of hides
« on: October 18, 2005, 11:18:11 AM »
Hello everyone on this forum!  I spend most of my time on the Thompson Center Handgun forums at GBO, but I have a question I think you can help with.  I purchased a 15" .22-250 barrel for my Thompson Center Encore and intend to do some predator calling this winter.  I'm as green as they come regarding skinning, stretching and proper care of hides -- also what hides are worth $.  Sure would appreciate it if you could point me in the right direction.  Thanks much!
