Anything less than 45ish cents a round delivered, is decent right now for brass 5.56 / .223.

Anyone who handles venomous snakes for research purposes are good in my book. Even non venomous give me the hebby jeebies.

Thats a huge mojave! Biggest one ive ever seen for sure. Those black rattlesnakes are always aggressive as heck and loud. I've ran into a few of them in 21 and they always have an attitude.

I know ordering cheese pizza is "The way" to judge pizza, but F that. Pizza is best with toppings. I think the toppings at some places make or break a pizza. Thin cut vs. Thick cut veggies. Italian sausage flavor. Even the pepperoni's taste different at different places.

Sounds like Ol' Dry ground Dale needs a couple visits. Disgusting that he is getting away with being a scum bag and posting about his new adventures.

Wait, Why am I supposed to be mad again?

Tri tip is my favorite poverty steak. That looks dang good. Winco for the win!

This could reduce, but doubtful it would be by much in the "problem units". You currently have 48 hours to report your kill. Add another 48 and you could be looking at a minimum of 4-5 days of total hunting, IF majority of kills were on opening day. Not much less when talking about units that close 6 days after opening. I do think overall the 48 hour rule would be better tho. A reduction is a reduction. If the harvest objective # hits on a Wednesday, the 48 hour rule would be great! I would imagine a significant reduction. I know the unit I typically hunt in, closed in middle January and 25% more deer were killed than the objective wanted. Basically, that last week, 8 deer died in a unit with less than 25 objective.

A few numbers on Unit 1 and 27 archery. The harvest / limit they wanted in 2024 was 45 deer in Unit 1 and 90 in unit 27. What they got because the unit had to stay open at a very minimum of 6 days ( first Wednesday after open) was 80 deer killed in Unit 1 and 110 deer killed in unit 27. I love OTC deer hunting more than most, but know that going forward, it will likely be a thing of the past. More hunters, better technology, declining MD herds all contribute. It is only a matter of time until OTC is gone. Having a 1 week or 5 day season would still go considerably over their intended objective. No easy solutions unfortunately. It will continue to be a trickle effect until it is draw only.

really? Is it not alarming to you how many deer get killed in the first weekend in those 2 units? Amazing how, once mandatory reporting is required, we now have at least some what of an idea of how many deer truly die by archery. Now if we could only get the rest of the methods of take to be mandatory reporting.

I'm ok with higher Non-resident fees and I hunt non resident atleast a time or 2 each year. It's a luxury to be able to hunt out of state imo. It is already crazy expensive when you add in the total cost of the trip. I'd like to see the dollars used more effectively, but that's a whole different discussion.

It's your decision in life, but I wouldn't let one Pedo keep me out of a country. heck, the USA is filled with them.

Any competent gunsmith can thread a barrel. Muzzle breaks are terribly loud, but effective at reducing recoil. Have you thought of just putting a suppressor on them? Best of both worlds imo. Less recoil, slower recoil pulse and way less noise. Try Axisworks in the valley or phoenix custom rifles to get your barrel threaded. Like I said before tho, Any gunsmith can thread a barrel.

Basically a desert sheep hunt. 😜

I havnt paid much attention to SC, are these crappie farmed and just released this year? Or are they holdover from years past?

Ibex in New Mexico would be sweet! Might have to figure out how to kill a mountain goat at some point in my life.

Why would anyone want to shoot 400 yards with a 22lr? I'd imagine you are gonna need a camera on the target to even know if you hit the target?

Majority of people who shoot suppressors would disagree with you on qd vs. Direct thread. Main reason being stacking tolerances. Fwiw, I move my direct thread cans amongst a bunch if my guns, and my poi does not change.

Are you selling one?

Haven't you had a tag the last 5 years? Just admit you love hunting them.... You just need to work on the killing them part... 🤣😅

I mean, to be fair, Boredman is the only member, that sellers have had to exclude from free posts, to ensure others have a chance at things.

You can shoot 2 each year, so long as different hunt #'s.. likely a leftover tag.

Fwiw, i shoot 130 bergers out of my 20" 1-7.5". Average speed 2895 fps

I'll help you feel better and remind you my bull tag took 10 years to get...

Elk tag here as well. Had an archery bull tag last year, so figured why not put in for early rifle 1st choice.... Lets hope it hit
