    Bino covers

    I have the badlands, which is great if you're riding in something like an open top Jeep a quad or Ranger. It keeps the binos clean and dry. I also have the ipi which is my favorite.

    fs/ft dan wesson model 15 4" 357 mag

    Picked this recently, still gathering funds for the elk hunt. Dan Wesson with the pork chop barrel, manufactured in monsoon, Massachusetts back in the 70', comes with original grips, pachmayr presentation grips, and Hogue grips. Shoot very little, looking for $450, or trade. (Bottom pistol)

    Savage axis youth.

    10X or 15X

    If you don't use a tripod, and don't hunt coues much, getting 15x's would be about as useless as teets on a boar.

    Wac'em broadheads

    I'm shooting that same, or very close to the same Doinker stabilizer... I tried it with all three weights, but found I grouped best with only one weight added to the front.

    What wildcat would you build?

    7 LRM would be very high on my list. Who did your build? What are some of the specs? Craigs Custom Rifles in Oro Valley. 26" Brux, #4 fluted, Mcmillian Game Scout, Stiller Predator action. Working on the finishing touches. but it is shooting the 175 LRAB at about 3050 into a touch under MOA, with the Zeiss HD5 5-25x50. Case life and barrel life should be much better then the RUM as it operates at a touch slower velocity, with much less powder and pressure. My current load is 82 gr. US 869, but also 72 gr Retumbo gets me in the same ballpark for speed, just US 869 showed better accuracy potential.

    Wac'em broadheads

    I shot them from my last bow and they shot like darts. I just picked some up from a member here to test out.

    Seriously....

    I'd send that to the local forEst service. I doubt they'll do anything about it but if they have the desire I know they have the technology to be able to read that license plate.

    Great weekend in the white mountains

    You set fire to your personal property, fine by me... But burning down the forest because you wanted a fire, NOT cool.... it can happen to anyone no matter how safe you are. I doubt the brothers who set the wallow fire I believe imagined their fire would get out of hand. I definitely see your point, but I guess I just take a different stance on this particular subject.

    Great weekend in the white mountains

    Forest Ranger came by last year and tried to give me a ticket for having a fire... Well a few months later the judge threw it out. So I guess they don't bother coming by anymore. That's a fantastic philosophy to live by.

    O.A.C.L

    I start at 100, finding my best load there with all the variables you mentioned being scrutinized, then move back. Usually, if you find a load with potential, adjusting the coal will dial it in.

    I want to start! Help

    You can get a whole lot of rifle/scope for $4,000. Have fun with it go buy something you want. I'd suggest 6.5 or 7mm calibers because of the available high bc bullets.
