Very cool. Been wondering if anyone had used the LRAB on Coues yet... Very good chance he is the first. Anyone else notice how big that first bucks neck is for October?

there are no longer magazine restrictions in Arizona except for migratory game birds.

Very nice! Lets hear some info!

Much of it depends on not only your location, but your quarry you might face off with in the field. In the east, from my understanding a loooonnnnggggg shot, might be 100-200 yards. Here in the west, in my opinion, 250-300 is a 'close' shot, with many huntrs in the field being able to reach past 500 yards. Even having said that, magnums are not 'needed',but with their higher velocity, more ft/lbs etc they tend to add a little more range, versatility and better results on the further shots.

Fantastic GPS. I use mine every day and it has saved my but several times. Great GPS and great price.

Pig and bear for me! Pig for the Mrs!

Happy Birthday Buddy. Hopefully, With Your Old Age You'll Start To Slow Down A Step Or Two!

Atta Girl Jayc! Good Job Phil.... That Girl Sure Loves To Hunt!

I Hate Paying Full Price For Stuff.... I'm Cheap!

I actually found a 65 Quart Yeti for sale on Craigslist for 250 bucks in East Tucson but it sold. I called Canyon coolers and their blemish percent of was only 10 so I decided not to go that route.

I'll Trade FOr H4831sc

How Low Does The bow Go On #Age? If It Goes To 50 Or Lower, I'll Take It.

Of course a .243 'can' do it when everything, or almost everything goes right. The problem with using minimal calibers/cartridges/bullets is the margin for error is slim and none, and shot distance, angles and placement have to be spot on. (which they did a very good job of making sure all of those were just right in the video, but some people are not as picky on all those.) Like Coues Sniper said, everyone would take a well placed shot with .xxx cartridge over a poorly placed shot with .xxx cartridge. Its like the Capital 1 commercials with Jimmy Fallon and the baby... 99.999% of people want more money... Duuuhhhhhh.

The power, as well as objective lense size are fine, I wouldn't worry about changing those specs, but I would look at (if its a cheap scope) upgrading quality.

3x4 Is Shooter, The Freak Is Awesome, But I Doubt Cactus Buck....

I Have A Leica Televid 77. It Is A Heavy, Awsome scope. I Don't Use It Much But I Picked It Up For A Song And Out Its Worth Its Weight In Gold.

As Well as Reliable Bullet Performance At Those Low Speeds.

Traded the first rifle I ever had, which was a birthday present from my parents, for my little brothers first rifle. Didn't care for the gun (all original Savage 99e .308), but the fact it was given to me by them is why I regret getting rid of it.

Gutpile, unless I missed something, he is talking about the partition not the Accubond. OP, IMO, the Partition is not a long rang bullet. I, personally would switch to something more suited for the task to shoot that far. Accubond, Ballistic tip, or the new Long Range Accubond is what I would look into. I didn't see a mention of cartridge, but being a 180 grain Partition, I would assume something .308 cal.
