HuntHarder

I have the micro-basterd on a sporter barrel and it works fantastic. I really like the APA brakes. Another good option is muscle brakes.

Since when has the Commission listened to any of us? How many meetings have you attended?

Bang for the buck, Tikka is really hard to beat. What is your price range? There are some great Semi-Customs out there but they are north of $1500.00

I have had that tag 3 times. It is a great hunt with the goats in full rut. Decoying can work on that hunt. I have been successful on all 3 hunts. Lots of goats to be had in 19a with the reduction in tags over the past couple years. Good luck

Any limit on the amount of tickets sold?

Did you contact HSM and ask them if this is their norm? I would be interested to know if that is acceptable to them. Have you done a burn test to try and determine what powder you think they are using?

I think he meant 3- 70's. not 370's. dang auto-correct

White chocolate grill is pretty phenominal Scottsdale just south of the 101

Thank you everyone that helped, I appreciate it.

I am getting ready to work up a new load for my 270 WSM, and was wondering if anyone has the newest edition of Hornady's reloading data? I am looking for Data on the 145gr ELD-X. Please pm me if you can help me. Thanks

So funny that you said this, same thing happened to me and I have a hard time not wearing my energizer. The El Cheapo works great and has the red light for hiking in undetected.

Yeah do not hunt 19a, you would just be settling. There are no big goats left in 19a that aren't on private property.

I have owned 3 or 4 different ones and now am sold on the Marsupial. If you are looking fore full enclosure, this is not the case for you. It has cutouts on the side to make getting the binos out and in easier and quicker. The magnets are strong, and the lid pens the RIGHT way. I highly recommend this case.

I agree, The duovids are an awesome idea and great glass, but they are not on the same level as HD Swaro.

Plenty of public land in 4B. Easy access. I would not let access issues deter you from 4B. 21 has some great antelope hunting, but the #'s are down when compared to other units. There are always a few jumbo's that come out of 21 tho. Unit 10 is unit 10, tons of goats, lots of hunters and lots of land to hunt. If It were me, I go 21 because it is closer to my house, and I would be able to get out more if I were not able to take the whole 2 weeks off. I could run out after work and be in antelope in less than an hour from the valley.

As I mentioned above, some bad electricians use grounds as neutrals. This appears to be the case from the pictures I see. I can tell from the pictures that the wire is not romex, as the grounds have green insulation on them. This appears to be thhn wire. Having said that, I would get an electrician out there to give it a once over. Using the ground as a neutral works, but is frowned upon because it can lead to unsafe conditions. If you were to disconnect the ground wire going to the house panel ( breaker box), it could become the same potential as the circuit it is being used on (120v). This can lead to people getting shocked, metal water pipes carrying voltage, gas pipes carrying voltage, and pretty much anything that is grounded having the potential to become energized. Chances are, this will not happen, however I have seen it more times than I can count. Do yourself a favor, and either pull in a new circuit for your GFI containing a neutral, ground and hot leg or get an electrician out there to correct the wiring mess it appears you have. I am sure it is an easy fix, but grounds and neutrals are far more important than hot legs when it comes to safety.

If it is indeed 240v, make sure that the guy who originally wired this is not using the ground as a neutral. This was/is a common practice for some hack electricians. They are bonded at your service panel, but should remain separate after that.

How did this hunt go?, I have heard mixed reviews of this place.

Do not lie to everyone. 23, 9 and 1 are the ONLY units with 380" satellite bulls.

I personally carry lightweight rifles. They are not considered superior long range rifles, but get the job done. I understand that the heavy barrel helps with heat dissipation, but what other advantages are there to a heavy gun. I try and keep my guns as light as I can. I assume it must be easier to shoot because the extra weight is easier to control while recoiling?

Friggin' Tanks! Nice going.

Most just base it on last years data. I look at trends, and check to see if there is "point creep" for that particular unit. If not, then you can get a pretty good feel for if you will be in the bonus point pass or not.

Well, If you will be in the bonus point pass for your late rifle hunt, it doesn't matter if you put it as 1st or 2nd. You will only be considered for that hunt during the bonus point pass. If you are not drawn during the bonus point phase, then your 1st choice gets looked at first before your 2nd. So in other words, if you know you are going to be in the bonus point pass for the late rifle hunt, either put archery as your 1st choice down and no 2nd choice, or plan on drawing your 2nd choice late rifle hunt and having no chance of drawing your early archery tag. I would suggest, if you want to hunt early archery, put 2 early archery hunts down as your 1st and 2nd. If you just want a tag, then do Archery 1st, and rifle 2nd and hope that you are not in the bonus point pass for the late rifle hunt.

Soooo you just chose to keep his rifle all this time instead of getting him his rifle back? I would have found a way to get him back his rifle a long time ago. How long exactly have you had his rifle?

Guns, optics, guided lion hunt, High end coolers, higher end bows. One thing I look at is the odds of winning. Some organizations will sell 500 tickets at 10$ a piece and the prize is a $500 gun. I personally do not buy tickets for those low odds raffles. There are other organizations who put on many different raffles and only try to profit maybe 100% more than what the item actually costs. This usually translates into higher odds of winning and their raffles selling out in a couple of days instead of weeks. So I think having 4 raffles in one month with higher odds and less profit margin per raffle is a much better option than 1 raffle a month with a 800% profit margin.
