Awesome tents! My wife and I lived in mine during our honeymoon for 2 weeks on an archery bull hunt a couple of years ago. One person can set it up but it is much easier with two.

If you are on Facebook post it on the Huntin Store. I had my spotter here for two weeks with out a lot of interest. I sold it locally there in 30 minutes.

I would love to but I am getting old and the abuse from my younger days is taking a toll on me. Bad knees, torn rotator cuffs, broken/dislocated multiple bones over the years and the arthritis that has set in makes it impossible to do a workout like P90X or Crossfit. I still work out regularly but have limitations. I am pretty envious of you younger studs that can do this type of workout.

Used one season. Comes with a lower quality Alpen hardcase. Tripod not included.

This spotter is in excellent shape

$1200

I suck too Nick.

I ended up letting a Zeiss spotter go to a member here. I regretted it later and bought the Razor. It is a good scope but it is not a Zeiss or Swaro. Overall it is hard to tell the difference between it and top end spotters in good light and 20-35 power. Adverse conditions and higher powers are another story.

I have lived in rural unit 42 my entire life and have had the desert muzzy tag several times. It can be a brutal hunt or it can be really good depending on the year. Guys that get it are sometimes hooked into just one area and eat tag soup. Bucks are usually pre-rut and not in their normal patterns. 3A/C would be a better choice but if you draw the muzzy tag get hold of me and I can help.

It sucks to be screwed like that. I have had credit card info stolen twice, once right after I signed up with Amazon. What's worse is I have had my entire identity ripped off twice also, once with a health insurance company and another through investments at JP Morgan. A good identity theft company is pretty cheap insurance in this day of computer technology. You can at least minimize the damage.

I can't trigger the release. It is as if my fingers lock up. I started with a caliper, went to a T handle thinking that would work but my thumb learned to freeze, went to a Little Bitty Goose and triggered it with my middle finger. I am now to where I can't trigger anything thus the hinge.

Lots of threads on the national Bowsite forum about hunting with a back tension. Here's just one of them. http://forums.bowsite.com/tf/bgforums/thread-print.cfm?threadid=414200&forum=36

Been fighting it for years and I am almost to the point of quitting. I have tried nearly everything. I bought a hinge handle some years ago but never gave it a chance. I have fully committed to it. If it doesn't cure me then I quit. I have made a makeshift bow string and sit around the house in the evenings pulling it back, anchoring and going through the motion of releasing. I shoot at a very large bullseye from 5 yards away instead of the long ranges I used to shoot that eventually caused target panic. I got brave the other day and pulled out to 50 yds. to shoot. I put three broadhead tipped arrows in a 3" circle so maybe I am making some progress. I plan on hunting with it this year. If I get into a situation where I can't make the shot because of the time it takes me to get the hinge to fire I probably shouldn't have been shooting anyway.

Enjoy every minute that you can with your dad. I lost mine last week yet will have all of the memories of the hunts that we shared together.

Surprised it took this long for him to get around to it. http://www.breitbart.com/big-government/2015/10/03/obama-goes-beyond-mere-gun-control-hints-confiscation/

Here's some pics. Sorry about the quality but they were taken with my phone. this is the worse scuff mark on the stock. The stock has some marks, nothing really deep and most of them came when I had this rifle in a 25-06 and lugged it around in my jeep all the time. The cheapest I have found anything resembling this rifle is around $750. I would take the stock condition and the fact it is a 28 degree shoulder into consideration in a trade should I decide to get rid of it. I would guess it has somewhere between 500-750 rounds through it but I can't really remember it has been so long since I shot it. I didn't shoot it much after having it rechambered.

I have a 257 Roberts Improved 700 BDL, 28 degree shoulder with a stainless barrel by the old Atkinson Gun Co. The stock is kind of rough. Does anyone know of a website that could give me an approximate value? I need a shotgun worse than this rifle. It's been collecting dust for the last 12 years.

I would like to think that he is smarter than to try it. It could get very ugly in a big hurry.

Forgot to add it is bedded and floated with factory trigger. I will try to post some pics tonight

Looking for a 12 gauge of comparable value or an open sight 30-06. I have been unable to find how much this gun is worth as it seems prices are all over the place. Also have a straight line seater and a set of RCBS dies with the 40 degree shoulder and a couple boxes of ammo that would go with it should I decide to get rid of it. This rifle had a heavy varmint barrel on it and I sent it back to Atkinson in Prescott and had it turned down some so my wife could carry it. It will shoot factory Roberts ammo. Used to fire form the cases this way. It is a tack driver. Last time I used it was in 2000 on an antelope hunt. It chrono'd 87 grain handloads near 3500fps.

Christians are fair game in anyone's book. We are "bigoted, haters, discriminatory, homophobic, etc." Need to wipe the world clean of such a people. Maybe the return of Christ will take care of that problem. God forbid anyone should say anything about muslims and the religion of peace. And yes, I have noticed that anytime this administration has something negative going on there is a distraction.

My Rhino was to the point it was giving me old age issues so I bought a Honda Pioneer. I bought it because I wanted to get away from the belt drive. I love the Honda automatic transmission and their engines are second to none. They are quiet compared to a belt drive machine The one thing about them I don't like is the position of the accelerator pedal and the lack of leg room. I didn't notice it until I took it out for a long morning. Not much room there and my foot was throbbing from the position I had to hold it in. I did some modifications and it is better but I still don't like it. I would take a hard look at the Yamaha Viking if I bought another one. I had zero complaints in the 10 years I ran my Rhino.

Sent my Premier's in to have work done on them at the end of the Jan. deer season. I got them back the first week of August. They needed to be replaced and they were out of stock. They did offer to reimburse me if I had proof of purchase but I wanted the glass instead. I have friends that have gotten returned glass in 2-3 weeks.

I-10 and 395th Ave. A 4x5 bull was hit on the freeway just down from my house. There was an elk in the Gila Bend area some years ago too.
