Bill, that Petroglyph Park was a place they liked to hang out. There is a plant that grows along the Leroux they seem to like. I'm not sure of the name or spelling but I've heard it called Chamisse? It's the plant you see people harvesting along I-40 near Sanders.

There are still Scaled Quail in Holbrook. Not as many as there were in the mid to late 90s. Back then you would see them at the Airport and the Hennesy Butes. The last time I saw any was about two years ago near Navajo, there were maybe 6 together.

Also remember to treat the scale with the highest respect. Don't drop it or be rough with it. Always be thinking about it through the process. It's easy to get sloppy with these. Once you zero it, you can't bump it or it throws off your charge. One thing I learned is to use two scales. That way I can check things better as I go. You can even mix it up with electronic and the conventional bar level type.

One thing I think works well is reading through a reloading manual. Not just the load data. Speer manuals have a lot of good stuff in the first half. It explains brass, pressures, and a lot of other scientific type things that are real good reads. I still read through the old and new manuals. That's my advice, start with a manual, then get your setup. All of the rounds you mentioned are popular so you won't have any trouble and some are even used as examples in the pages before the load data.

How long will a healthy one live? Do you need to take it to the Vet often for check ups? Are there common diseases for captive birds? Thanks for sharing, real cool stuff.

Nice job! I have a left hand .270 that looks exactly the same.

Is that an A Bolt Stainless Stalker .270?

How about 280 AI?

The good thing is that you're in 3C. Lots of roads there. You shouldn't have to travel too far from a road to retrieve.

I agree. There are a lot of 370 6x6 killed every year it seems. But a 370 5x5 is beyond rare. Well done! Maybe the best Elk post so far this year. I love how the main beams grow towards each other. Thanks for sharing.

I too am left handed. Good luck searching. Most places will not offer much for left handers if you're only looking for actions. Most of the time, you will need to buy the rifle and strip it down for a nice custom job. I'm always looking for used left handed guns every where I go and on the web as well. Years ago, I bought a used 700 CDL from someone on here for $500 and had a custom built. That is about the most I will spend on a used gun that I plan on using as a donor. It can take a long time to find one to use as a donor. Like I said, I'm always looking out for deals on used rifles. lefty guns are hard to find because, the left handers don't usually get rid of them.
