Move the scope to another rifle and see what happens.

Nice rifle should go fast. Wish I didn't need an IDM for my truck.

I used to have a fixed power 30X Bauch & Lomb I used for everything until someone came into my camp in New River and took it about 20 years ago.

Yup, stuff gets lost, dropped and left behind. Just happens. A friend set a pair of binos down and then forgot about them, went back but could not find the actual spot he was in. Probably still there. I lost a Dan Wesson revolver about 30 years, probably fell out of the holster when I went through a barbed wire fence. Didn't notice it for quite a while, pretty sure someone picked it up.

No.

Looks familiar, I shot a javelina with my bow about 15 years ago if it is where I think it is.

30's.

Wear a little bit of blaze orange.

Gambrel.

They switched to Gold from Green I believe when the 6.0 came out because supposedly it didn't need the additive like the green did but I have since heard using the strips and putting in the additive is also a good idea when switching to or using the gold. A local guy up here swears by the Cat ELC which is probably what I switch to in my 7.3,,,,,after hunting season and my Coues hunt to Sonora in January.

I'm absolutely in!!!! You sure? It took you five hours to think about? LOL

About 15 years ago I was asked by my BIL to come out to his place just a ways from Silly Mtn Rd to shoot some coyotes that had been perstering his Greman Shepard Dog and eating his food. So early one morning I went out and walked down a wash until I found a decent ambush spot to call from. I had a little fold up stool with me so I backed up inside a Palo Verde, unfolded the stool and while looking around I put the stool behind my back and set it down. I heard a muffled sound like a deep hiss from a housecat. I looked down and there was a pretty big diamondback. I'm a bit more careful now. LOL

Something new as far as I know although they have always promoted "Watchable Wildlife".

Welcome, there are a few waterfowl hunters here that should chime in soon, I've never hunted them so I am of zero help.

Crazy Joe Biden (the wife groper) is in the on deck circle. I'd much rather see in in there than her. Actually I think just about anyone would be a better choice.

Congrats to you and your beautiful finace, wishing the two of you a lifetime of happiness together.

Yup, second that.

Don't really have one, seems almost all of my kills except a very few and been solo so it's just been a chore to pack them up and get back to camp. Take a picture or two usually followed by some beers back at camp.

I flew SW to Long Island a couple of months ago with a borrowed case (Thank you Metu) and it was pretty simple. Go check in at the baggage counter. Let them know you have a firearm and they will tell you which line to get on, once you check in and they take you regular bags they will direct you to go a TSA checkin counter about 50 feet away. There the TSA person will swab down the outside of the case. Once done you fill out a quick piece of paper then open the case just enough to slide it inside and you are done. TSA will then take the case and you will be on your way. The whole thing took less that 15 minutes. Once you get to your destination you will probably need to go to baggage claim to pick it up or a baggage handler will bring it out to you as it didn't come up on the turnstile with the other bags.

Pretty much the same thing every year.

Sounds like you know the unit fairly well so it's no secret that every corner of it holds elk. Just go hunt it. When he gets one down post it up and if you need help packing it out a few will volunteer.

Only thing I will add is anything that is not bio-degradeable will get absorbed through your skin and go to your liver. I hear guys say things like I use Hoppes No9 as aftershave but Sweets is some nasty, but effective, stuff. Pay attention to to your rifle and how cleaning works for it, everyone is different if you are a good enough marksman to take advantage of it and be consistent.

GOooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!
