MRL1984

Yup sportsmans warehouse has had the window version in stock for $17.99 for the last two weeks. As expected returning to stock for a few dollars more. This appears to be the new Pmag going rate.

Well I didn't ask, but it looked like the H1000 just didn't move at cabelas. They have a lot of IMR this week. Sportsmans has had a fair supply of a least something, seems like mostly the accurate powders. Sportsman is having a rise in prices though the ramshot was $25 a can. WLR primers were 54.95 for 1k. All that said, its hit and miss I imagine for what stays on the shelf vs what flys off.

None yesterday. H1000 has been at cabelas two weeks in a row. Picked up some Ramshot big game at sportsmans. My 22-250 will stay fed.

I will keep an eye out. For the near future I check Yorkshire sportsmans and cabelas at least once a week.

Just curious how we got from the above to 308nut being the God of rifle and standing up for him. Stomp or 308 won't lead anyone down a wrong path. Both are more than willing to share their knowledge, when asked. They are having a healthy discussion/debate and are grown men, let em be without a referee.

Where are the southern unit illegal/drug runner warnings? All units in Arizona south of I10 have a chance of meeting up with illegals (unarmed, looking for work) and cartel (armed and carrying drugs) type folk. Just wanted to remind y'all since you aren't local.

You know usually I say whatever BofA hasn't messed with any of my gun buying and hunting stuff. HOWEVER, two years in a row my debit card I used to put in for elk and lope online got cancelled within a day of the update time. This year I fixed it in time, last year no dice so lost my loyalty point and the point or tag. Needless to say that got a profanity laced phone call about the timing of their crap when it happened this year.

DOC investigators are full on AZPOST certified law enforcement if memory serves me right. Had someone on that path in my academy class. That said, they are just like DPS or any county or city detectives doing investigations and arrests. Someone has to solve prison crimes and they don't call the local PD. Criminal investigations have to be done by an outside agency and that's who they chose.

Haha y'all are funny. None of these stories are gripping "selling" stories to the general public. So of course you aren't going to see it make a big news splash. $13k is chump change for a theft to the mainstream. To me its a lot but it won't sell the paper. Make it millions then it will hit the paper. The situation with the sexual harassment won't sell either there is no accuser coming forward no court to follow. Its dead in the water to the media. They looked into a second hand report whoa... I can't think of a poaching story on the news, let alone a buddy hunt. I get it y'all are upset with G&F for a number of reasons. AZPOST being involved with Romero will get results you won't hear about, DPS will do a good investigation. Like most other crimes though the attorneys will settle on a plea or decide they can't charge it. Happens everyday with people who are total slime and do worse than $13k in cash.

Price is usually helpful.

I agree with shutting down some units for a while, I'm totally for reducing the tag amount and number of hunts in all units. Maybe even limit some units to just a few doe tags for the "meat" hunters. I'm tired of seeing a ton of does and a handful of bucks. Anyone who says I don't agree with horn hunting is just as bad a horn hunter hating on you for shooting a dink. So check the hypocrisy boys and girls. I agree with discretion on what we take. Id support a split horn minimum for deer though.

One of the better descriptions I have heard.

I think the premium system is actually a good idea. The problem is I don't consider any elk or deer hunt in AZ to be of the premium caliber. I already sent my survey but the questions were basically if elk tags cost this much I would still buy one with a scale of strong disagree to strong agree. It asked if one supported the premium hunt can't remember how it was structured, but I wrote on mine, my first paragraph of this post. I don't disagree with the idea, but there is no hunt worthy of being premium here. Especially 36a in December as the 9th rifle hunt. There was a question about cheaper cow tags vs bull. I agree as there is less meat. In all it was about 10 questions 4 or 5 of the scale of agreement level. Then some about what percentage of increase is acceptable. It was really nothing special.

As the guy that called it whining I re read the thread. I stand behind the whining comment and wasn't the first to point it out. To amuse you some more,I'm sure they do. Stomping, falling down, rolling, crying while kicking and screaming. :-) I didn't name anyone or call them out. Just said that all the whining smells like occupy, welfare and hippies. Which when we make it everyone should be equal and afford to go hunting. Hunting shouldn't be for the wealthy just like college right 99%? I did the magic survey and its headed back to them. I am going to compose a letter as well. I am not saying folks aren't doing more just pointing out that I see a bit of libtard from folks who present themselves as the anti-libtard. Last I checked occupy did more than whine too...

I know I'm not lucky, but I also got the survey. Even made a thread to see how many other folks got one... I don't care about cost, I will still hunt. Y'all can piss and moan all you want, but none of you won't hunt because it costs more. Just like you all bought Prius's (ok at least a V6) instead of your 1 ton lifted monster because gas is double what it was. Oh wait I still haven't seen a CWT sticker on a Prius... You just have to learn to do something unAmerican today, work a little extra anytime you can, spend a little less and save some money. All this whining has the same entitlement smell as occupy, welfare and hippies.

I am with you on the beauty down there, it has a home feeling for me. You know where the good photo ops are when you spend most of your life somewhere. I grew up in 36a, 36b, 34a and 34b.

Never going to happen, there aren't any wildlife statutes in title 28. DPS doesn't do anything besides 28. For those that don't know title 28 is all traffic related. Yes they run the state gang task force, but that's mostly rented officers from city and county agencies.

I just wondered if anyone else got one of these in the mail. I basically saw it as G&F asking for a blessing on raising cost. I know there is already a thread about the simplification of the licenses. Just was including this for those that didn't get the survey. I answered mine as it asked with my honest input and wrote additional things in the margin. I hope anyone else who got one will do the same. Yeah yeah they won't listen anyway... I will reserve my opinions in this thread regarding tag/license prices and ask that others do as well. Just wondering how many other CWT.com members got the survey.

The herds in the 36s are getting thinned out from my experience. 36c is said to have an extremely high lion population, but I have no time spent there. 36a has a whole 9 hunts counting 2 Jrs and 2 mule deer hunts. Not to mention BP heavy presence in chase of illegals. Only saw one of the mojado herd on my hunt last year. Saw two bucks out of about 40 deer. 40 deer mind you was once a day not 4 days that it was last year. Sadly I hunted harder last year than normal too. I haven't been in B for a few years, but I figure with access opened up a little more and more folks on left over tags the herd will be thinned out over there too. Seems like that was the report from most after last years hunt. Most of us that have hunted the 36s over the last 20 years can vouch that the herds are not what they were and are getting worse. I have hunted 36a all but about 3 years for the last 18, and this year I reached the conclusion that id rather not have a tag then hunt there. As far as the illegals, any of the southern units will have that possibility. I know one or two people who said never again after meeting armed crews in 36c. The illegals are not a problem, its the drug runners and guards that you have to worry about.

Seems like less bucks especially of quality, are getting pulled from the 36s. Strangely there are more hunts and tags every year. I'm sure I will piss off a lot of folks with the following, but this left over tag business has hammered the southern units. I think it adds nothing positive. I think any tag in a year for a specific species should use your bonus point balance. It allows people not to have to choose a tag or a bonus point. I used to hunt and see one or two other hunters in my area, though there was a mule deer and whitetail hunt running concurrent. Now on a whitetail only hunt the hills crawl with people. Legal ilegal and Border Patrol. I think Game and Fish really needs to think less about the money and more about the health of our heards.

Of course .22 is out, no one can reload it and its cheap to practice with. Oh and if your like me blowing through a bunch of it generally just happens. It's also my entertainment during barrel cooling. I'm glad I bought a decent stock of powders and primers and scaled back my calibers before things went silly. The bummer being when my bro came out from the communist republic of Illinois and says,"lets shoot, you have lots of ammo"and I had to say no we can't I'm low and cant replace what I have, I only load for my hunting rifles.

In that case no. Never heard of it.

Check on Arizona Shooting. I have met at least one 6.5 Creedmoore shooter from there, but his name escapes me at present. He lived in the north end of the valley if I remember correctly.

Its pretty easy to rack up 15 posts on a site you have business on. I think it is a possibility that it will be seen soon on this site since multiple folks are behind it. Helps keep the trolls out as well.

Why does the old dead dude get a say in the matter? Decide what you like and go with that. You can always change a stock...
