    To Bed or not to Bed?

    Have it bedded... Yes, your rifle might shoot good without it being bedded, but probably not as good as if it was.

    WARNING!!!

    I would say it looks more like a glossy snake.
  3. We don't need another law, we just need to use the ones that we already have on the books. For example, wouldn't ARS17-316 help in this instance? http://www.azleg.state.az.us/FormatDocument.asp?inDoc=/ars/17/00316.htm&Title=17&DocType=ARS
  4. Last weekend, I saw two instances where bucks were chasing does in 22.

    2013 elk recomendations

    Since you don't seem to grasp that there are multiple uses on the public land concept, I will give you an assignment ...Go stop by a couple ranch houses up in your area and ask the rancher if AZGFD is giving out too many tags.
  6. Gun scrubber is too expensive. Also, hoppers leave a little oil after it dries, which isn't goo inside the cases.

    couse caliber

    6.5mm or 7mm. My next build is going to be in a 7mm SAUM.
  8. It was a great time...Sorry I didn't catch your Mom's second shot.

    Suggestions on which long range gun to buy

    The are the same parent company as krieger, but the are a button rifled vs. cut.
  11. I picked one up from another store, before my deer hunt and love it. FYI, I paid way more than $59. Also, I tried to stop in last weekend, but got into town too late. Your store looks great from the outside.

    Long 3pt. Coues

    He could have been, but it seems way to early. I have some video of some smaller bucks fighting in the America general area.
  15. Viper, If you have an iphone, try the adapter that Outdoorsman sells. It is much easier to use that the already easy tines up adapter.

    az prop 120

    State Trust Land was established acknowleding that "Land" should not be in the public domain forever. It is the State's mechanism to auction land for the highest possible price to fund education. "The Common Schools (K-12) are the largest beneficiary owning approximately 87% of the land and receiving close to 90% of the revenue," State Land Department website. This is the highest and best use of our State Land. Some of you may forget that without a strong economy - there is little opportunity to hunt. In fact if we are beholden to China because they own 68% of our debt, and we can't repay them - do you think they are going to respect our natural resources?? The issue here is that we are not in short supply of public land - that is a fact. The federal government owns 65% of the land west of Denver Colorado - that is way too much. If we don't start harvesting our natural resources - then China will gladly come in and mine/harvest them for us. There won't be much opportunity to hunt legally if our economy collapses...and if it does everyone will be hunting just to survive. So vote for Prop 120 and we can reap the rewards of our god given resources and turn the world's largest economy around. I think what you are missing is that Arizona is one of the best states to hunt tin because we have so much public land. If it were, or if it went all private, hunting would be a who you know or rich mans sport for sure.

    Suggestions on which long range gun to buy

    It appears that the B.C. from my ballistic program i are incorrect. You are correct in saying the 6.5 -284 is a great long range round, it's just not my ideal extreme long range deer hunting or long range elk hunting cartridge. I thing something in 7mm SAUM, 7mm wsm or the 7mm rem mag would be a better choice when you balance all the factors.

    I had the same issue with my iPhone. Cleared my history and then clear your cookiies and all is good now.

    Suggestions on which long range gun to buy

    This isn't really a fair statement. For example, take your 6.5mm 140 grain A-Max (B.C. .550 G1) and put it up against the 180 grain A-Max (B.C .580 G1) in a 300 WM you will see that they have similar muzzle verlocities but with the slightly higher B.C the 300 WM is acutally flatter shooting, has less wind and has more energy at 1,000.

    Antler Restrictions

    I think antler restrictions would promote bad genetics alon with what was said earlier about putting the pressure on the two and three year old bucks. Infancy, if you want larger bucks, you should have a spike/ fork season.
