It looks like they killed Dick Matt

I was never a member, I would sign in with a buddy's password just to see the pics. I remember there was a young guy on there that really liked posing and posting his picture. I got a kick out of that. It's been so long since I've been on there, I had no idea it's gone. For Arizona, this is the best place.

I've been dreaming of a new toy for quite a while now. I would like a real accurate 22 cal centerfire that would push a 45 or 50 grn bullet around 3000 fps. I already have a m700 in 223, so I was thinking about a 22 K Hornet or a 221 Fireball. I made up my mind that it will be a Cooper Custom rifle. Does anyone have experience with the K Hornet or the Fireball? How about Cooper Rifles? Any ideas/opinions are appreciated. Thanks

I've read it, own a copy. I was the same way, once I started I had to finish.

Anybody hunting 3A? Any luck there?

azbackwoods, good luck. That is my favorite hunt. Let me/us know how it went please.

Anyone heard the prank calls from Howard Stern's Richard and Sal? Some of them are real good. Those two are a real good part of the show. It's not just their Tradio prank calls, other types of calls are real funny too.

Just wondering why you pick the Remington over the savage? All my guns are Remington however a lot of people are leaning me towards the savage axis II? Just a personal preference. Most of the shooters I've been around make jokes about Savage being cheap and tacky. That's just opinion a far as I'm concerned. Like you, I have heard a lot of good things about them. I also talk to talented gunsmiths that will build a custom Savage for someone and make it sound like the greatest thing ever, so I can respect that too. I have 3 model 700's and 2 of those are custom jobs. Remington has always been a personal favorite of mine, and no matter what I hear about Savage, I can't bring myself to buy one. Lots of people may say the same about Remington.

Pretty good advise so far. My opinion would be to get him a 270 WIN. That was my first centerfire and I still use it from time to time because it's a light and proven rifle. Mine is a Browning A-Bolt stainless stalker that has a 19" barrel with a BOSS and likely has 1500 rounds through it over 25 years. Even as a young kid, I could manage the recoil and comfortably carry it wherever I went. As for Remington or Savage, I would go with Remington.

It looks like part two is on tonight.

I lasted until about 9:00. I hope it show again in the future. I learned a lot.

Take it to PCR. It's worth the time. Brad did my rifle and I'm very happy with it.

Welcome. You should do well. There is a thread somewhere on here of a guy that took a real big non-typical during the archery hunt. I do not have any real good info for you as I do not spend time in that unit other than shed hunting. From what I hear, it might be good to focus near the Park Boundary.

Phoenix City Grille. It's near 16th Street and Bethany Home. I stop in when I'm working in that area to get my grub on.

I liked him. I enjoy the Comedians that use the big F-word, it adds a lot to the entertainment value of a performance.

Planes will be much cheaper. Good luck and try to get a high wing Cessna. If your real lucky, you might find someone with a STOL kit and you can cruise at 40 mph.

Does anyone out there reload for the 280 Ack. and use the 145 grn LRX bullet? It seems like it should be a real good bullet. I have a 26" number 2 barrel if that makes a difference. I have plenty of 4831 and IMR 4350, but I'm open to other powders. Just looking for suggestions and a little advise on where to do some research. If not the 145 grn, what are your best loads for the 140 or 150 grn? Thanks for the help.

I'm right handed and would shoot right handed if I could. I have a vision problem in my right eye that forces me to shoot left handed. The problem was found when I was in Kindergarden when they test your eyes and ears. Since then, I was trained to shoot left handed. I can't see anyone in their right mind shooting left handed otherwise. There are just way too many options for right handed shooters. All of my dad's rifles are right handed and I have no issue shooting them. He bought me my first left bolt when I was about 13, and that was all I used for years. I got to where I could cycle the bolt really well and just kept buying left bolts ever since.

I'm a left-handed shooter. Everywhere I go I always look for them. All I've seen lately is Tikka, Savage and maybe some expensive Brownings. I would recommend ordering one you want. If you're looking for used, can't really help you. Keep looking in the classifieds, I bought a used Model 700 from someone on here about a year ago so they're out there just keep looking. Good luck.

Antmo23, I think you'd be surprised how many agree with you. I lean more to your side. As said before, Religion, or lack of is a very hot button issue and relationships are wrecked or made very uncomfortable because of it. That's too bad.

I was lucky growing up. My family did go to church but never made it a weekly requirement. In the last 20 years, I've been in that church house maybe 9 times. I agree with Trophy, nature is my church and I worship all the time.

I've seen some shady people on that road before. I like that area for shed hunting. I hope they put it out soon.

I agree with you, way too many roads. 3A is better and one of my favorite units. Too bad about the wind turbines on the Pink Cliffs though.

I hope the truth comes out. If it is poached, post the names please.

With a name like Lefty, I was really hoping these would be left-handed rifles.
