Nice story. Haven't heard of a gain twist barrel since the 60's. Congratulations on the horse shoe. It looks a bit like one I came across with another hunter on this site during his wifes hunt.

Why? Are you having NatureBob choose for you?

My son won a RMEF 700 Youth in 243 a long time ago and it has been a great rifle, in fact I have used it a couple of times on Javelina hunts because it is so handy and light.

Great write up and kudos to you and your dad. I tagged along on a hunt in the same unit earlier this year and it looks like you covered some of the same ground, kicked my butt too. Work prevented me from making it back down for my hunt last week but that's the way it goes sometimes.

Ate there a month or so ago and had the crawfish. Nasty, Nasty, Nasty, Nasty. They served us frozen tasteless skinny arse ones. They said they were outta season. Like eating rubber. My brother lives 50 miles SW of New Orleans so I know what the real deal tastes like, Old Bay sux. You need Zatarains, nobody uses that crap. Cept maybe if you are in Georgia or Tennesee.

I would like to get a Kit Fox later in the year and I have seen gray fox quite a bit but does anyone know if they have a specific range or type of habitat they can be found in?

the golden years of predator calling Pretty much before electronic calls. First year the Navajo Rez opened up to contests he and I killed 16 and took 2nd place out of 28 teams. Should have been 1st but they kept the weigh in time open for another 20 minutes and we got beat by one dog.

That's pretty cool shooting one with a bow. My truck has been acting up and is going into the shop next Monday. After that I will be out hitting spots looking for them to help a friend get his North America Fox Grand Slam when he comes to town in February. My buddy Marty and I hunted the heck out of yotes for years in the 80's and 90's before he moved.

Back in the 80's I picked up a M70 Lightweight in 06 and that was a thumper.

Yup. Not new news but oppose it.

Great story and some beautiful country too.

Maybe Clint Eastwood will read this and make a movie about his life. Soon.

LOP probably needs to be 11" or so.

if you were on target sports mailing list they had federal 300 bricks for 20 or 22 bucks a couple weeks ago. you can still get 500 bricks for 35 STILL? F-That, I want them back to $9.99 a real brick. Time for these manufacturers to get real and have a "Liberty Sale".

True to my word I went home after work, cooked dinner and refrained from watching the results thinking the worst. Had a few beers and went to bed by 9. Woke up this morning and watched the Weather Channel then drove to work listening to 94.1 instead of the usual NPR. Got to work just at 6 to unlock the yard and office. As I got out to get the gate on comes the news and all I hear is President Elect Trump. Just about burst into tears of joy. WOW THANK YOU AMERICA.

You mean 35A?

Yeah he is definitely not politically tuned in. Hispanic Americans I know who actually work for a living are voting Trump.

Sounds like me a few days ago. I did a mail in ballot so tonight when I go home I'm leaving the TV off until the morning.

I would ask over at Savage Shooters. http://www.savageshooters.com/content.php?s=2e2dea13be81399a1181d1d6e2633eaa

How was it? What temperature do you keep the smoker at?

I don't recall what year, maybe early 90's. There was a freak storm that came in and dumped enough snow it shut down the whole forest and hunters were forced to leave motorhomes and trailer there until spring.

I'm sure someone can help, where are you located?

Any electronics that maybe the manufacturer could trace the serial number?

Inherently accurate.
