    Acceptable COAL tolerances?

    Thanks for all the info guys. Kind of what I was thinking most would say, but I recently started shooting longer range and notice that my reloading needs to be top notch in order to achieve my desired results. So I use RCBS full length dies, and have a question regarding them. I set my seating depth, and have achieved accuracy to my standards without using a comparator ( current set is right at .50 MOA). Do most of you guys check your ogive measurement, then adjust your seating die every round? Seems like this is going to really lengthen my reloading time if this is the case. Is the VLD seating stem a new stem I can replace the RCBS one with that came with my seating die? I seated my bullets to my maximum magazine length, and my gun seems to love them. Just like most said, I was kinda going nutty doing a COAL measurement after I had loaded 50 rounds. My gun shoots great, but in the back of my mind, I know that my COAL is or can be .008 different than the previous round I just shot. I might be over thinking this.... In the past, my reloading has consisted of less than an inch @ 100, I am good with that. Now that I am into this long range stuff, I think I am over-thinking it.. Thanks guys,

    Teach me bout hot water!!

    Have you checked the elements? Turn off power to the water heater, take the wires off of the element screws and check for continuity on each element.

    Recent Jaguar Pics and other critters down south

    The jaguar looks tiny compared to both the lion and bear. Is it a baby? or is it in a crouched position? Good job getting pics.

    Big Horn Draw Odds

    Sheep draw odds can get very confusing, Most people think that you have to have max points to draw a tag. When in fact 80% of the tags get drawn on the 1-2 pass. Last year only units 16a, 24b,22,31&32,37a,37b, 39w, 40b Mohawk & 43 had Bonus point pass tags. Every other desert bighorn tag was Luck of the draw! All we need is a little luck. Some people keep applying for 22 not knowing they have literally 0.0 chance of drawing unless they do have max points. Even with max points your odds are only 5% and are only going to get worse as the years go on. I have accepted the fact that the sheep in 22 are safe from my arrow unless I win the raffle!!!

    Decoy???

    I have had mixed results in 19a. More negative than positive. If you are able to get close enough, the big benefit of a decoy is Antelope are very curious, and even if they know it looks weird, they will still usually at least stare long enough to be able to get a shot off. I have had them charge in, and I have had them stare, and then run like no other.

    Would you or wouldn't you pull the trigger??

    I had this same scenario happen to me on a Kaibab deer hunt at 60 yards. I let him finish, then dropped the hammer. I still talk about it to this day!

    Why would someone have 18 Javi bonus pts?

    More than likely it is guys who use app service, and just have no clue where their money is being spent.

    your thoughts?!?!?! part 2!!!!!

    Get a better camera!! All of those pictures including your first are blurry. Is there any way to set the shutter speed or exposure time to quicker?

    Non-resident tag info...

    Make him do his own... He will severely limit your draw odds unless you are putting in for extremely easy draw hunts

    Any Fishing recommendations in Maui for honeymoon

    I fished from shore about 10 years ago in both maui and kauai and did good in Kauai. I caught a bunch of hammerhead sharks in Kauai off of a dike that went out a little bit. Was a Blast

    Garmin Rino 530hcx Issue

    What Lance Said! Every time I go out, I calibrate my compass. It is very easy to do, and will avoid any problems you are having.

    Rimfire bullets

    I have owned both, I would choose the WMR over the HMR. I think my 17hmr has too much drift in wind, and if I am shooting at prairie dogs and miss, there is a lot of the times that I am unable to see where I missed with the HMR. Such a small bullet does not throw a whole bunch of dust. I know you are not suppose to plan on missing, but take the 17hmr in the wind, and it is going to happen. As far as damage, I have taken quit a few foxes, and both seem adequate. I really want a semi-auto 22 WMR, but Ruger apparently can not figure out how to make one that doesn't crack!!

    remington 700 sendero nightmare

    the worst part about it is, the back-up at Remington right now, might take well over 6 months to get thru. If I were you, I would call Remington first, throw a holy @#$% fit and make sure your gun gets ahead of the thousands upon thousands of recalled Remington's. Most dealers do not have any 700's on their shelves, and I know Sportsmans has been told it could be months before they see their 700's back.

    Lost Plott Hound AZ HWY 60

    Gotta love those hounds. Did he find his way back home as expected, or did someone find him? Good deal that he is back at home.

    Hunting's Next Perversion

    "take" loosely translates in to attempt to take or pursuit. You do not have to take an animal to actually "take." I wonder how AZGFD would interpret using thermal imagery close to a hunt or the night of a hunt?
