Obama praises Ho Chi Minh
sjvcon replied to sjvcon's topic in Political Discussions related to hunting
There are plenty of people who are awake. Just not enough that actually cast votes and make a difference. I think it is pretty clear that it is not just the Dems who suck ... there aren't many vocal Conservatives in office ... and there are a bunch of D-Bags like McLame in there that are screwing things up just as bad as Obama and his crew. -
That is ridiculous. I went there a few weeks back for some inserts, and the guy was no help at all. Kind of a D_CK actually. You should call Hoyt and tell them what BM is trying to pass off as "new" and tell them that when you questioned it you were berated and told to leave the store. You should tell Hoyt that you want a new bow or a refund. Also, next time you want a Hoyt, go the Archery Headquarters. They are fantastic guys, do a great job servicing bows, and it is still a local business. I'd have bought my new Obsession Knightmare there if they carried them. Had to order one from a guy on AT.

The media needs to be overhauled. They are a bigger joke than the dope they propped up. -
FWIW, the .22-250 is a real tack driver ... at least the T3 Super Lite my son has is. I am sure the performance of the base model is similar. We didn't pay that much for the T3 SL ... mid $600's I think. Was well worth the money.

13A is a great unit, but your success will definitely be somewhat dependent on the weather. One year up there was very hot when I hunted, and we knew the deer were there, but we never saw anything but doe during the daylight hours until the last day or so. Then the bucks I saw were mostly younger guys that needed some more years of growth. The only giant I saw was near dark, and I never got a clear shot at him. The second time I got the tag, the weather was much colder. It was a much better hunt. In a unit with sparse population, it never hurts to find the water and the food they like.

If you want something to shoot both deer and elk with look to a 7-08, 308, or 270. You will probably have to put a brake on any of those for a 10 year old, but they will all work well. Lots of good manufacturers, but I really like the stuff Tikka is putting out for the money. Their T3 Super Lite Stainless is very lightweight and has a great trigger.

I just saw where Zimmerman was acquitted. Thoughts? Almost unbelievable given the Administration's obvious attempts to get this guy tried and convicted of something. How long will it be before Eric "the Crook" Holder and the DOJ file some sort of trumped up Federal Civil Rights charges against the guy????

Yeah ... from a distance!!!!!!

Deer, Bear and ? what is the cat picture, notice the tail and spots
sjvcon replied to grandmawhitetailhunter52's topic in Trail Cameras
Lion. Photo is grainy. But I'd sure put that camera out there again and see if you can get clearer photos. Maybe a higher MP camera. If it is a Jaguar, that would be really cool. -
Yeah ... ain't that the truth. But the other ones he posted were better hands down. I'd go after them first.
-
I have two youngsters that will hunt that unit this year. Those bucks are stellar ... or at least it looks like they will be at full growth.

You cannot beat a Biscuit for hunting. It is the only true NO FAIL rest out there. Just sayin' ...

If this is the ED lenses, this is great glass for the price folks. Not quite on a par with the big boys, but close enough that most people wouldn't know the difference, and for the money, you can't beat it. You should sell them quick.

Let em grow another year.

Not huge, but big enough.

This guy is a joke. New York is a joke. If we aren't careful, pretty soon this whole country will be a joke, because nobody will stop the "Demander and Thief" and those like him. They just keep destroying whatever they touch, and the idiot "Conservatives" in Congress do nothing ... at least most of them.
-
What is this CRAP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Juror B29 now says Zimmerman "got away with murder", but says that they couldn't convict him of murder because the evidence didn't support it???? What kind of a dumb idiot is this woman. Is she just trying to "save face" in light of the fact that she's a minority??? I've had it with idiocy ... I think they should institute a policy ... you have to take a test to vote ... we'll never save this country with idiots like this voting. If the evidence doesn't support it honey, ITS NOT MURDER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The guy was having the life beat out of him ... what was he supposed to do ... let himself get killed. YES ... HE SHOULD HAVE STAYED IN THE CAR, but the kid was assaulting him. GOOD LORD SAVE US FROM THE IDIOTS ... THEY ARE OVERRUNNING EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

You really think the Leupold is better? I'm not so sure. Maybe tube construction and dials are better? I like my Vortex glass better than what is on my Leupold's ... VXIII's. Don't think I can say that I like Vortex glass better than Zeiss, which I have, but it isn't far off. Same with Sightron ... I think that scope is a little brighter, but it cost $400 more ... if I had it to do over again I'd have done a Vortex on that rifle too ... if nothing else for the warranty.
-
I think part of it depends on the time of year to some degree.
-
Vortex. I own both, and like the vortex better. Plus, you can't beat the no fault warranty.
-
Howa makes a nice rifle from all that I've read.

Google Earth was a great tool for me on my Strip Hunt. Found some tanks I'd have never otherwise found.

Well, the IBO is 350. My DL is 28", so I'll lose some speed there, but bumping to 80 should help a bit. Going to try to shoot as close to 400 grains as I can ... maybe 425 or so. Maybe I can get 320 or so??? That is quite a bit more than what I am getting now, and should keep me pretty flat out to 40 or so.
