Bring me a pound of Retumbo tomorrow when you come by and I'll pay you the $30! I wanted to try it for my .300RUM.

I am in the north central Phx. area. Text me when you are ready and I will see if I am around. PM inbound.

Bolt cutters and a bunch of extra locks? Cut a link and add your own "entry pass" while maintaining the integrity of the chain. Or start hiking in. Probably better hunting now anyway. In all seriousness, I am in no way advocating trespassing or destruction of private property. If it is private property, respect it. I would be pissed if I caught someone cutting a chain to my land.

What part of town are you heading to? I might be able to help you out if I am home.

Mine say Oct. 24th too. Don't freaking scare me like that!!! I'm down to a week wait. Another 24 hours might give me a stroke!

I'm in north central Phx. area, I-17 & 101 area.

Episode 2 was my favorite. Thanks for the laugh.

And the finale

Episode 3...

WTF is up with all the super sensitive assholes? I am in no way racist, but this is getting to be bullshit. Just people LOOKING for a reason to protest and bitch and moan. Don't like it? Don't freaking GO!!! If this is allowed to happen, the next thing will be the Coyotes doing away with the "white out", as it excludes any other race... What's next?

I think he is going to take it. I will let you know either way.

I had a PM before this post. I will let you know what he says.

Been up scouting a few more times with no photos, but hard at work. Seem some nice bulls. This weekend is reserved for getting ready for my deer hunt on Oct. 24th, which my daughter will be tagging along on for the first 3 days. Hope to let her see how it might be on her hunt. Planning on some serious hiking, glassing, and hopefully shooting.

Do you have any contacts? I have a few items I would love to donate to kids hunting organizations.

Price drop, one time only. 10x42 Binos=$125 Spotting scope=$75 Rangefinder=$75

I guess the Koala is back up for grabs. No response from vmartinez. Price drop on the bows. They won't go lower. If they don't sell, I will save them for future grandkids or something. Koala=$25 Parker (Red/White/Blue)=$50 Parker (camo)=$100

I have a set of insulated coveralls in Realtree AP. I think they are size 10? I can check when I get back in town tomorrow. If they will work, they are all yours. No need to buy them, glad to donate them to a future group of hunters. They are not super negative 0° warm, but work down to about 30°. You can bundle up underneath them for added warmth. They are just the cotton faced, so not waterproof, but my kids have used them for 14 years with no issues. All zippers work, no rips that I remember.

Hands down, Phoenix Custom Rifles. Great guys, amazing work, quick turnaround, good prices, great CS.

Mil-dots will give you proper holdover at a certain distance and conditions. Move up or down in elevation, temperatures, barometric pressure, etc. and they stay the same value, but your ballistics change. Your hold at 1400' AMSL and 85°F with a baro of 28.82 will differ from 7000' AMSL, 40°F with a baro of 26.60 greatly. Even with a flat shooting round. My .25-06 Ackley changes dramatically from summer shooting here in the valley to hunting season up north. Drops are totally different. That is why I find out my approximate elevation I will be hunting, with an approximate temperature forecast and standard baro pressure, and use that for an estimate during hunting season. But I always carry my ballistic calculator with me on the chance I will have time to use it to get me as close to exact ballistic drop as possible. With a 200 yard zero, a 400 yard shot might be .94 Mil (approximately 11.5") down here in the valley right now, but goes to 1.2 Mil (approximately 17.6") at 7500', 35° and 26.62 baro. 6" difference in drop at only 400 yards. 600 yards makes a bigger difference 2.2 & 36.5" to 2.7 & 57.75" difference. 11" difference is a miss or wounded animal at best on almost any game species. So environmental factors play a huge role in LR shooting.

This chic turns necks...

I have had different experiences with a well placed shot. Both rifle and archery. Had them drop like a sack of hammers. Had them stand for about 10-20 seconds then keel over. Had them run for 30-150 yards and pile up (animals can cover that distance quickly). Had them run off and bed down, then get jumped out of bed and run off again only to die within sight. And you need to watch more hunting shows. I have seen plenty drop like a stone. I hope to have that happen twice in the next 2 months.

I have never shot the Reds, but all of my arrows are Carbon Express, for both hunting and 3D. The quality is top notch. For straightness and consistency in weight and spline. Pretty durable too.

No one needs a good mid range bino? For a spare, or the kids, or a loaner?

SOLD! Thanks Cliff.
