Zeiss hd5, locking turrets. -
Slaveryand denying women the right to vote was once legal too. Was upheld by the Supreme Court more in court than I can count.If you think the govt can waylay you without reasonable suspicion that you have committed a crime, congrats you have the govt you deserve. Lol asking country of citizenship is 'waylaying'?

Nothing illegal about them. Been held up in court more times then I can count. And I can count to 7/08.

Those primers are needed as much if not more then the powder! I don't have enough to go though a jug!

Long range hunting is the new fad, that's pretty clear. What is also clear is the use of the heavy, long, high BC bullets have taken center stage. I'm guilty, as I used a 180 .284" Berger Hybrid last year. I, personally as not impressed with the results. Deer took several shots, although with the way the weather was, I can not articulate where each shot hit, minus the neck shot that did zero damage other then knocking him down for about 45 seconds. This year I have switched to the 180 Lapua Scenar. Why? I am not sure as they are supposed to be a little more stout then the Berger, but there is a massive thread on another forum with TONS of critters that died due to the Scenar. Has any one had any issues with the big heavies NOT performing like they are supposed to? I'm mainly interested in the reliability of the big heavies to open on our little coues deer.(not much there to make a big, heavy for caliber bullet expand if no bone is hit) Not so worried about how they work on elk.

Awesome! Was the hide still good?

Any back story on the dead hombres? Obviously they really got lit up!

Look at using the 120 TTSX.

If you're in need of h1000, come to tucson and I'll spare you a # or 2. -
The new anti venom used by hospitals is called Crofab and is 60k per dose, an average sized male human will require 2 doses. Right now, I dont think it is covered by any insurance. So you will be out of pocket Here is my favorite snake pic I've taken. He came over a dead branch 1.5 yards away from me when I was sitting in the ground during a coyote stand. His 5 foot skin looks nice on the wall image.jpeg That's probably the biggest rattle I've seen!

Buddy does this with his trailer. I borrowed it on my last December tag, was a nice trailer. Wife and kids used it last December.... complete POS now, in only 3 years. -
I've got one that's a great rifle just sitting there collecting dust. ... I just can't get myself to part with it. Good luck in your search, they're great rifles.

Building my 6.5 Creedmoor chassis
firstcoueswas80 replied to azhuntnut's topic in Long Range Shooting
Serious question here, because I've seen a bunch of builds like that. Why build a bolt action rifle to look a lot/exactly like a AR15 style rifle? -
I dig it. A no nonsense, get chit killed rifle. Sling 160 accubonds or 150 scenars and fill an ark!

Lark has the first 7/08 ever made.

Scope height is a big issue. What we're you using to determine wind speed?
