Can you shoot bull buffalo on the OTC tag or only cows? Ever have any luck during the archery season?

Which walmart?

Hey, sorry I forgot to get back to you. Mine is a sportdog brand, so it probably won't work for ya.

How about "missed"!!!

Yeah the crossbow manufacturers are corporate evil To me it says nothing about making them legal for archery seasons, just that they are clarifying their use, i.e. can you use them during general rifle seasons, for coyotes and rabbits, etc. I'm pretty sure crossbow manufacturers had nothing to do with this.

I think it's a sportdog, gotta look this evening.

I bought a beeper/collar combo, will never use the beeper. I'm not sure if they are compatible with other remotes or not, perhaps you know. I will dig it out after work today and see if I can figure anything out about it. If it would work for ya, I'd sell it pretty cheap.

I believe Nosler makes their brass in .264, I've heard its good stuff, and for what they get for it, it better be! I had a box of their 7mm STW brass in my hand the other day, $55 for 50 didn't seem to bad, till I noticed it was only for 25!!!!! Hahaha... for $2 a piece it better be good brass! My dad has a couple of .284's, I love them, haven't messed with 6.5x284's though.

good luck!!!!!

Looks like the same buck thats in the 3rd pic 2nd from the right, no eye guards coupled with the fact that he's traveling with a bunch of muleys, I'm going to say muley.

Don't knock it till you try it! I've never run bears, but I have run lions and coons and it's a riot! VERY physically challenging, and mentally as well.

There's another guy selling 15's and a 1200 leica http://phoenix.backpage.com/SportsEquipForSale/1-swarovski-15x56-leica-10x42-geovid/14966791

THANK YOU!!! I thought I was just hard on stuff! I've had 2 sets for going on 15 years and they are rock solid and I love them. The last 5 or 6 pairs I've bought (all in the last few years) have broken within one hunt. I actually gave up on them and went back to the crappy bungy ones they send with from the factory. I don't think the leupold covers fit anything else, or I would have them, haven't heard of the nightforce ones. I would gladly pay $50-100 for a set that actually work and won't break, wish I'da bought a supply of them back when they were good I guess!

I'll take it! Pm'd ya.

I had. 45 cal knight. I think it's all about bullet selection. I shot an eastern whitetail in the chest with. 175 gr barnes pushed by 130 gr of 777 and it went clear through and lodged in the hide on his hindquarter. I think the heaviest bullets you can get are sound 240 or so, so I don't see a problem with using it on elk as long as you use a good bullet and hit them right. If I were buying a brand new gun I would definitely get a 50 just because it's easier to get bullets and cleaning supplies etc.

Anyone know who the guy with the lifted red ford superduty that was at the Forest lakes location on wednesday around mid day? They had a rack sticking up out of the back with big tops on it that looked exactly like one I was chasing, curious if it was, didn't have time to stop and check, but the bull I was after had a broken brow or two and his 5ths were longer then the rest of his mainbeams by 4 or 5 inches.

You sure that isn't a spike elk?

I'm with Amanda, I know it's not good to complain about having an archery elk tag, but I'd go in a heartbeat if I didn't have that hunt to go on! I'll be calling if I kill a bull on the first weekend!

Thanks for the update Chef! You cost me $300!!! I'm trying a vest, packable jacket, beanie, and the gloves.

I just got my model 70 (pre-64 style) 7mm STW back from the smith, had it bedded and floated in its original walnut stock. I'd like to put a nice synthetic on it, but my dad got it for me when I was 12 as a christmas present, and I didn't want to change the esthetics to much! Anyhow, I've always had Leupold 2 piece bases on it with a Zeiss conquest 4.5-14. The Zeiss made a trip back to the factory while the gun was gone to get an elevation turret, and I plan on having a Kenton turret made for it once I get a load ironed out. It's always shot 140gr Accubonds into 1 MOA, but been kind of fussy about keeping that MOA in the same spot year after year! I bought some 168 VLD's I plan to shoot out of it, and want to set the turret up for longer range (the previous longest I'd ever shot it was 600). I plan on putting a one piece picatinny base on it from a reputable manufacture, but don't know whether to get a 0 or 20 moa. It says on zeiss's site that I can get 42 MOA out of my scope, so is 20 MOA of elevation going to be enough for me to get 1000 yards out of it or do should I get a 20moa base? Also, if I do get a 20 moa base, are there any downfalls to this? I'm worried about having zero troubles at close range (100yrds) with the scope cranked up all the way. I love the idea of long range, but not at the cost of my 100-200 yard zero ability. Thanks,

PM'd ya

me too! benbuntrock@hotmail.com Thanks!
