I agree that there should be some sort of back up protection just in case something like this happens. Same thing happened to me 3 years ago during the spring draw. My card was cancelled 3 days before the draw and I forgot to update. As you said, Just glad it was Javelina and not elk, antelope, sheep or deer.

I am glad you realized it was your mistake and not theirs. To much blaming everyone else for your problems in this world. Way to take responsibility.

F Yeah, I drew achery Javelina in a trophy unit

I shoot the 145 eld-x @ 3180 fps in my WSM. Plenty of knock down and very flat shooting. I put a muzzle break on it and now it has very little recoil and great ballistics. For a hunting rifle, it is a great choice IMO. If you compare ballistics to the ever so popular 6.5 creedmoor, the WSM wins everywhere except recoil. The WSM kicks more, uses more powder and has a smaller choice on components. For a pure hunting rifle though, I like it.

If you have not, you will, it is just a matter of time...... Vortex = great warranty

Just having all the basics in stock would be nice. haha. Bullets, brass, primers, powder and some reloading tools.

I used shoe polish with great results. I over used it in fear of it not releasing, but I had 0 issues.

I had a case of tulammo 7.62x39 that came in a can like that.

I think this is mainly for Archery. You are allowed to hunt within a 1/4 mile of a building in most units, but there are a few that you are not allowed to. I think it started with all the Metro units but has slowly transitioned into more units.

You can buy the eyecups individually and install them yourself. Sportsmans's used to carry them, try and call them or the outdoorsman.

The bushes in the background grew quite a bit too in those 6 days

That's funny, I had a similar event with Aron. I emailed him and he emailed back his phone # and said call him. It was like 5:00 in the morning and when I called him, he said he was sitting on the side of a hill waiting for the sun to come up. Customer service is pretty top notch over there.

Bump

I am pretty sure their large model fits 15's. Email the owner, he is local here in phoenix and will answer your fit questions quickly.

It's hard to show the bags capability in pics unless I mount each one on the frame and stuff them. Look at kifaru.net and this is shown pretty good. They also have lots of YouTube videos. Pm me your # and I can text you some photos, they just won't show the bags as well as Kifaru's site does.

I prefer the open style vs the completely enclosed cases. I think they are much easier to get out of the case if they are open on the sides. I have used the marsupial since it was released and I like it best out of the ones I have tried. (Kuiu, Sitka, AGC, and FHF) I think they all have their pros and cons, it just really comes down to what your preferences are.

I use Kifaru and I have different bags that attach to the frame based on what my hunt will be. For a 3 day hunt, I use either the nomad or the 22mag. For longer hunts I would attach the DT2. Check them out, they are expensive, but well worth it with the lifetime warranty and made in the usa, not to mention the versatility of switching bags pretty quickly

Do yourself a favor and order the Marsupial bino pack. It is the best one I have used so far and is not huge on your chest. Check out their website, but I think size large probably.

Back up to the top. Appears first deal fell thru. This is the style https://detroitwheelandtire.com/hol-2473-cccccc-stl.html

Yeah, the 35x12.50r18 are load range f which are 12 ply. The 35x12.50r17 are load range e and 10 ply. I'm gonna use discount tire because I have a credit there and also almost 300$ in rebates right now for wheels and tires labor day sale.

I am thinking about getting some Nitto Ridge grapplers and I figured I would ask if anyone has tried them out yet. Let me know your thoughts if you have.

Thanks guys, I too was torn between toyo rts and ridge grapplers. I had great luck with Goodyear duratracs on my last 1/2 ton, but my 3/4 ton ate them up. I've had 3 tread separations under 30k miles. I'll report back after hunting season with a report on the ridge grapplers.

I wear the prana lined pants on real cold days and they work well.

Yup, I wouldn't change.
