Yeah, if I had looked at your profile I'd have seen you started about 7 years ago. I'm still waking up, I guess.

Good to know. Looks nice.

Good morning. Looks like you are new to Course Whitetail. Where are you located?

I'll check for the 223 tomorrow, but either way I'll take it.

I'll take it. I'll

Stan is correct IMO. Also, statistics ( yeah, serious math analysis and calculations) can be more accurately applied when better basic information is obtained. Some call it mathematically guessing, but real standard deviations occur and with near 100% reporting, they can be fairly accurately calculated, even from an armchair.

Oh, is that where he shot it. I didn't realize that it was 3b. That's where I lucked out and got my first ever Mulie this year on a Muzzy hunt. It's on my back. Thus the confusion for me.

Did it score 173?😁

Mandatory reporting is the most exacting method to manage the herds. It also puts absolute pressure on G&F to discover the true reasons for herd loss/reductions if not due to hunting. Real, trackable management! i.e. Why are there so few mule deer in 3B? I know part of the answer is poaching in that area because while hunting we had a local admit to it and invite us to come back anytime and do the same. Outside of 3B we know that Nobull360's brother was eventually convicted of poaching and Nobull360 made it sound like no big deal. How big is the poaching problem by locals really? And by others? Mandatory reporting would help diagnose and prove what the true causation of herd loss was/is and allow G&F to focus on the real problems and thus more efficiently utilize the revenue to improve game opportunities. I would only exempt varmint for now unless there is a very rapid or major reduction. Nobody likes regulation. I hate regulation! But to help sustain our wildlife opportunities all hunts should be reported ( still excepting varmints) to stop the thieves and provide quicker response to health and thief issues. Safeguards should be in place so that exact location is not required but general info like 3B N (or S,E,W, central) would be helpful but they should be required to protect any information on location other than the hunt area (i.e. just the 3B) from public release. Such should be enough for herd management. Even that exacting may not be necessary. I use 3B because 3B seemed to me to be in real trouble for mule deer. That is where I hunted this year and I learned a lot!

Pretty..... Pink? Yep! He started it.😁

Maybe this will help. Maybe not.

I want them, but I'm in Mesa.

It was just minus the $ sign so not as easy to catch it with the cut and paste white background. Even harder to see the older we get.

Clarification. 7mm Remington Magnum? What work did you have done to the stock rifle? Final total weight?

That was a good deal, IMO. Nice diehard shotgun. Here ducky, ducky. Here quail and dove. Dinner time!😁

Got this in an email.

Global Ordnance has their ammo on sale plus 10% off. May be something a few of you are interested in. If not, no harm no foul.

You might want to go dialing fo dollars and check the gun shops along the rim, UN ammo in Phoenix, and some of the area gun shops. My search on the internet was not encouraging. Best wishes.

I may have some.

Thank you guys for your help.

Looking for 6.5 x 284 Norma brass and ammo. I need to sight in my rifle so match ammo would work, whichever is less expensive. Please be reasonable. Thanks for your help. Edited: Found. Look below!

Found the ammo for $47.49 per box at Normashooting.com, $2.52 per round with Tax. Lapua brass only was $31.80 per 20 plus tax. I think the Norma brass should be near the quality of Lapua, but I also got it loaded and ready to shoot. Amazingly, the factory price is normally $52.00 per box but was on sale with a 10% discount and free shipping over $150. Midway was over $85 per box for the same exact ammo plus tax and shipping. Nearly double! Go figure.

Which Sportsman's? I'm in Mesa.

Why are you selling it?

What happened to the other ten rounds? 20 round boxes, so 160 - 13 is 147. But you only have 137 rounds left? And do you still have the brass. I am interested. What about dies for reloading?
