A troll bumped this thread and you guys are falling for it. But I have to ask, if you were carrying any other 12s except for the 12 Els would you still claim only 12s and a spotter? 12 EL and a spotter has got to be different then any other 12 and a spotter, 15s have been the standard for a long time.

Lies make baby Jesus cry.

Looks like a great spot with lots of potential. By the looks of the sheds he is or was in decline. Would have been cool to see him in his prime.

I sold them to get the meopta 15s. However, they are still really good binos. I had kaibabs and sold those to get a pair of vipers and vultures to be able to have 2 pairs. Since i mostly used my old gold ring switch powers and would let other use my vortex. I took them out side by side with my vipers just to see the difference and they were way brighter then the viper and with much less chromatic aberration. They were clear side to side too as far as I could tell. I would definately put them above the kaibabs and probably not quite as good as the meopta. Here's what I didn't like about them.. The exit pupil glass is pretty big which is nice but eyecups are a bit large, they should have made them skinnier. With my narrow beady eyes I'd have them close all the way in but the eyecups didn't allow me to have the glass close to my eyes the way I like. The other thing is connecting them to a tripod, the Velcro thing they give you is a joke so i used my vortex stud. The problem with the stud is their design is like double hinged rather then a single hinge holding the two haves together so where you would connect the stud is closer to your face and a little off balance IMO. And the third thing I don't like I'll admit is a bit stupid but I can not stand the material the carrying case is made of. The sound it makes on my fingers and the texture is like fingernails on a chalkboard to me.

For myself im always looking into whats out there value wise that's still decent. I have a viper pst but rarely hunt with a rifle. I have a couple vortex on the kids guns now. One of the rifles will shoot twice with a tight group then have a flyer, I don't think the flyer is me though which is why I've been looking into other scopes. Assuming those same criteria and then add in trackable, what do you think is the best bang for your buck out there?

Just researching at the moment. Had an opportunity for a discount so I figured I'd ask. But to answer your question, for my kids rifles.. the cheapest I can get that have 1. reasonably clear glass, 2. Up to at least 18power, 3. Bdc reticle, 4. Holds zero.

The Veracity looks promising. I read the outdoor life article. It won the best buy and editors choice award in 2017.

Are you saying antler restrcitions in NM did not work? If so why not?

Intentionally whipping around corners, speeding and jumping machines would qualify i believe.

I'm sorry man but imagining your gigantic butt in a Ford focus is just funny.

I got a $300 ish gift card I'll give you 20% off. Then you combine it with whatever coupon or active junky if u want.

Are you buying one large item or a bunch of stuff? If you have at least $1500 worth of stuff you can submit it to the "bid room" at the pro desk. You could also use my cell number for pro rewards and get paint discounts. You can also get just slightly discounted gift cards through raise.com and I think you can shop HD through active junky as well.

I'm refering to the younger generation of workers more specifically. But yeah still an over generalization.

When researching years ago I came across this site. http://venomshock.wikidot.com Here's an article from the New York Times about the guy I think was in the video. I can't find the video though. https://www.nytimes.com/1986/08/05/science/the-doctor-s-world-new-shock-therapy-for-snakebites.html

The only kids these days that have a good work ethic are likely kids of a business owner. I make my kids work with me just to teach them work ethic. There was a time I thought hiring young guys was better, these days I choose older and slower but good work ethic.,

I heard it years ago. The guy that told me about it got attacked by a swarm of killer bees and did exactly this and swore it worked. He first heard about it from a reptile magazine (He was a snake owner). Since then over the years ive researched it and found a handful of videos online. The one thing I would say is the voltage claimed to have worked from the things I have read was not the type of amperage you would get from an ignition coil on a V8. It was more like a you could barely feel it on your bare skin kind of voltage. Like a watered down version of sticking a 9 volt battery on your tongue. Also I read it could only be DC current and not AC. Question for IA Born.. What type of venom do killer bees have? You mentioned several types of snake venom. Do many snakes in AZ have the same type of venom? And is it possible the dc current could work on one type of venom but not others? Just curious. This has always interested me. Just for fun I will try and find an old video I saw where an old timer claimed to save several lives with a little hand crank generator. I think it was in South America but could have been Africa.

What do you mean by hauling? Please explain the process. I think I remember way back when you were still considering your move and I think I remember water being mentioned as an issue.

Good news! Here's the update I just posted on the go fund me page... I was also amazed to see people donated almost $5k to the family. Thank you all for your prayer and support for this family! Hello everyone, thank you to all who have been donating and praying for this family. Its amazing to see the effect and influence that they have had on others around them, not to mention all the kind words that have been spoken on their behalf. When setting up this page for them I didn't even know where to set the financial goal for them. I am absolutely amazed that it looks like it could go much farther past the initial goal and be a huge blessing for them. I just spoke on the phone with Eduardo and Alex and had some very encouraging news! It looks Like Daisy is really doing well. She is talking a lot now and is almost back to her normal self. A real chatterbox from what I understand! Its looking like she will make a great recovery as far as her mental health is concerned so thank you so much for your prayers. She is an amazing little girl and proving to be quite the little miracle. Some other good news is although she is being fed through a tube, she is actually starting to eat some solid foods on her own. I know that she has had some apple juice and apple sauce as of today. This is another huge milestone for her. When I spoke with Alex he was down in Mexico getting their Grandma to bring back and visit with her. They are bringing Grandma back to help prepare to tell her the heartbreaking news about her parents which she still does not know yet. Please continue to keep Daisy and the family in your prayers through this process. I know that it is going to be absolutely heart wrenching and difficult for them.

That would be so hard to turn in. I'd move it to some brush and bury the head so you could "find it" again later without the hair.

Sweet rifle and sweet bull! -
Yeah. She has an older brother 28 who's married with a little boy. I assume she will stay with him. He's been staying in El Paso with her. Along with the middle aged brother who was also staying with him up in Colorado.

So I sent in a pair of old 8 power cascades which were like 14 years old and my highly loved Golden ring 10/17x42 switch powers to be fixed. Called in to pay $52 for the cascades and was broken hearted to hear they couldn't fix the golden rings and would offer me a pair of bx4 pro guides and I broken heartedly told him Id chew on what do do and call back. A couple minutes later he called me back and said he would hook me up! Hes replacing my cascades with a newer version of bx2 alpines that came out like two weeks ago and replacing my gold rings with a brand new pair of Santiam 15x56! I'm so freaking stoked!
