    Coaght another night snake in the yard. Had a 4ft bullsnake a few weeks ago. Construction is driving them into the hood. My wife is displeased he is in a bucket inside the bathtub so I can relocate him tomorrow. I have a soft spot for snakes.

    My last coues was the stud of 15 bucks within a mile of each other, right in the mix with cattle and heavy machinery operating the day I pulled the trigger. Food, shelter, water. I wouldn't write off any habitat until you've glassed it hard. They don't move enough to not use summer intel, they just move less during the day.

    Just got my deer back today and it came out great, they called and kept me updated the whole time, they were the best taxidermy I’ve dealt with so far, great work, and customer service 👍

    Very nice 1951 Winchester Model 70-270 with scope. Stock has been refinished with new buttstock. Includes Burris Fullfield 4.5-14 scope and original leather sling not the black foam one in picture. Also have vintage soft gun case. Not sure where to start with this as they range from $600-2600 on GB so I am going to list at $1250 with scope and some ammo. More pictures available upon request and I am in San Tan Valley

    I know in-field bullet performance can be difficult to find sometimes when considering bulletin options, so I thought I’d share mine here. Hope it helps, or at least proves educational. About 6 years ago, I worked up a load in my 7mm-08 with the 160 NAB with RL17. Muzzle velocity is ~2725 from a 22” tikka t3. So, nothing crazy. I’ve been blessed to take three cow elk with this round, at distances from 180 to 340 yards. All three have only needed one shot, and I’ve recovered the bullet from two of them. In one case, the distance was 340, and the shot was quartering to me a fair amount. Bullet went in just past the onside shoulder, and ended up against the skin on the far side. Lots of lung damage, and the cow walked about 15-20 yards before collapsing. Perfect mushroom, and recovered weight was a little over 140 grains. This year, I shot a cow bedded at 313 yards. Her position meant I had to hold on the shoulder. Bullet went through the shoulder bone, and was found against the far side hide. Great mushroom, and weighed 144 grains. Velocity would have been about 2150 at impact. Cow got up and fell right back over, and stopped moving completely after about 30 seconds. I’ve attached pictures of the bullet from this elk below. I know a MV of 2725 is laughable these days, but figured someone might be able to extrapolate what the same bullet would do from their 7 RM or 7 PRC or whatever, at further range, given the data. Overall, this bullet has performed quite well for me. I know there’s a lot of bullet options out there these days. But maybe this can help narrow some choices.

    I picked-up a new rifle so my boys and I could get on the 'suppressor' wagon. (Ranch buddy let one of my sons use his silenced rifle on our NM pronghorn hunt last year, and we're sold on them! lol) Anyway, against my better judgement, I stopped by Bass Pro on a whim late last week and rushed into buying a low-end Vortex scope. VERY limited hours for scope mounting services, so I went to Healy Arms yesterday to have them mount it. After talking to Mark's staff there, I ended-up buying a scope from them that is perfect for us! (Gonna go return the other one to BP.) Mark was super cool, as always, and he had the scope mounted and ready to go in short order. Knowledgeable and helpful! Good guys! Side note: I've always used scopes with the 'hash marks' built-in for holdover. We aren't super long-range shooters, so never went with the fancy and relatively complicated turret systems. In talking to Mark's guys, they said they didn't have any rifle scopes with hash marks, but they showed me Leupold scope with the 'CDS' system. It's awesome. It's basically turret management for dummies like me! No more holdovers for 300/400/500 yard shots. GO SHOP HEALY ARMS!!

    Healy's is great. I have to put blinders on when I go in there for targets or ammo. I'm a BDC/holdover/hashmark person but new copes like that are super hard to find, so I'm interested in your process. And to show how dumb I am, I have some elementary questions (for you and/or the CWT community). Which Leupold did you end up going with and why is the CDS simpler than a typical turrents? Also, how will the suppressor effect the CDS system? Thanks!

    Then you will be fine with 143's or 147's. No need to load 156's or go to a longer action.

    I remember those leftover December tags. I wish I was a better hunter back then. Less people for sure, not to mention no quads or SxSs.
