    Black River Small Mouth

    Has anyone recently been in the portion of the Upper Black just above where it hits the Apache reservation? If so, mostly trout there or a mixed bag? Thinking of a small backpack trip into that 10 mile or so stretch from the crossing downstream until the Rez boundary. Any feedback appreciated...

    After this year, it's almost worth holding and adding until CO comes outta this mess, assuming they actually do...

    Colorado draw?

    heck, I got a hit this morning but I put in for second choice on a hunt that was guaranteed last year. I had three points. I feel lucky to have even gotten a hit.

    Wouldn't shock me if you draw a blank, dependent on unit.

    Hunt proposal, more limited archery units

    There is a recent grittybowmen podcast with Heffelfinger that discusses a lot of these issues in detail for those asking questions. Good listen and directly pertains to the issues at hand....

    Nu-Way Model 4000 Propane wall tent stove

    More BTUs than a Buddy, condensation is not an issue as it is vented. Of course we are in AZ....grin.... You can really control the heat with the damper placement. In the photos I pictured it's low, you can rearrange the damper much higher, as high as right before it goes out of the tent. The higher the damper, the warmer it gets. Big difference. This setup is very small and very light. Would I use this setup in zero degree weather? No. Would I use this setup for giant spaces? No. Perfect for normal sized wall tents in AZ winter weather on average? I'd say yes.
  11. I have an extra stove I'm going to sell. I just hardly use a stove anymore. It's been used exactly 2 nights and been setup only a few times. https://nuwaystove.com/product/model-4000/ Includes: -Nu-Way Model 4000 stove (the big one) with 10' of hose -Nu-Way's 3" stove pipe kit, that I've increased to 4" at top for more heat and for standard cutouts in most tents (see photos). -Nu-Way's low pressure regulator kit -all extras I have, extra 2' of 3" pipe, extra 5' of hose This is a mess free way of heating a wall tent and it is warm. Is a single or dual burner. Very very easy to operate. Propane tank (not included) can be outside of tent. Extremely low fuel use for burn rate. Takes up very little space. Basically performs like a wood stove with no fuel gathering and no mess. And can run on low all night to keep tent warm without getting up This is how folks heat their ice fishing cabins up north. Total of 10' of hose from stove to propane tank. Stove pipe height from top of stove is 6'6". More pipe can be added to extend if needed very, very easily at Lowe's or Home Depot. I'm in Tucson area for pickup and I can demonstrate operation for buyer. $325 for it all picked up. Please holler with questions. First I'll take it gets it.
  12. I have some extra muzzleloading items I am in no longer in need of and could also use trade items dependent on what you have. I have 500 count 209 primers and 2 1 pounders unopened of Triple Seven propellant. Is anyone in need of these items and would like to trade for other primers, powders, or bullets? PM me if interested and we can chat a trade. I am in the Tucson area....

    Trigger pull weight on long range hunting rifle?

    About as low as I go is a pound, prefer 1.5 pounds. Ounces can get sporty if you're not careful for a variety of reasons. And definitely don't lend your gun out with a 4 oz. trigger...😆

    7mm-08 Pet Load Data

    For 120-140 grain bullets far and away the best powder is Ramshot Big Game for both velocity and accuracy IME. Safely, with 22" barrels in multiple rifles including notoriously slow Tikka barrels, 140's can get 2900-2950 at the upper node with good brass life and 120's can go 3100+....

    7mm-08 Pet Load Data

    Reloader 17 is a great 7-08 powder, as is H4350 and most others in that burn rate. For heavies in a 7-08, I like the 168 Berger VLD. Great bullet down to 1600 or so impact speeds and penetrates well. Run those numbers at 2,650 MV.
