    Magazine Capacity

    My first Javelina was shot at about 30 yards with a TC in 223 sporting a 14" barrel. He was about 30#'s and the impact knocked him down like he was hit by a bus. Surprised the heck out of me.
  2. So, what would some of you suggest for someone who has not hunted ducks but has a son who wants to? Are there guides out there who can provide a hunt in an area that isn't high pressure and congested? I didn't know that evenings can be so productive. Everything I have seen on TV and in magazines was all about shooting at first light.
  3. I was in 23 last weekend and the FS Roads are all open.

    WTS Savage take off barrel & stock

    OK, I'll go check it and get back to you before lunch. I took it apart and the magazine stays attached, so staggered it is. PM me with shipping details and how you want to handle payment. Please plan on shipping it to my office in Tempe 85281. Thanks, Chris

    Is the black Long Action still available? I'll check the one I have @ home to see if it is staggered or center. It is an 06. Does the staggered feed just add one more round to the magazine?
  7. No need to post it and give them any ideas, they are shutting down more stuff every day. The Atlantic and homes on Lake Meade are just the beginning.

    WTS Savage take off barrel & stock

    I have a 110E LA which has the blind magazine. I bought this to give to my BIL and the stock which came on it is the original birch stock. With him living in Colorado I'd like to replace that stock. Now ideally, a stock with a floor plate would be nice but isn't a necessity . PM me with what you have that may work and we can either meet in Globe or I' can pay shipping.

    I've been looking for a stock like that so if it doesn't work out for AEF I'd like a shot (pun intended) at it.

    Raccoons in AZ

    I saw one (dead) the other day on the 202 about a half mile east of Gilbert and have seen a few live ones around Pinto Creek.

    GPS found

    I was Turkey hunting with my son yesterday and was wearing a pair of 6 pocket hunting pants when I heard a "flop". I looked down and saw my GPS on the ground so I can understand how it can happen.
  12. I'd keep it simple and get a 25.06 barrel from PAC-NOR. Ammo is easy to find and it can be downloaded for varmints.

    Rim road 300

    I was in the Mesa G&F late yesterday getting my 2014 license and the employee who gave me the license said the forest is open but the boat ramp at Woods Canyon and the Campgrounds are closed.

    Kaibab Jr. Doe Hunt

    We have hunted about 15 miles south of Jacob Lake off 67 and walk the edge of the trees and always see plenty of groups of doe's out in the meadows in the late afternoon and early morning. It does get pretty cold so bundle them up with gloves and thick socks and take lots of pictures. Both my son and daughter got a deer the first two days we were there. Just make sure you don't shoot an Elk, they are in there too.

    Brass splitting help!!!!

    Case seperation is common in 223 but it usually is not a factor until the case has been sized and trimmed a half dozen times. What is that a 270? Shoot Mike an email, http://www.bellmtcs.com/store/

    Pull a molar and have G&F age the deer.

    Youth hunters and grades

    Some people just don't do well in school, happens. Not everybody is College Material. I never held that over my kids head. As a matter of fact, if they had a bad day at school I'd say, lets go fishing. I didn't hold grades over their heads. With some kids, the harder you make it for them the more the recede. It's better to be their place of refuge and build their confidence on what they do well because not all of them see the big picture. Now sure we, as adults, know the value of an education but we all know someone who did not go past HS who found their niche then applied themselves and have succeeded. Hug em and love em, because in the flip of a switch you could get a phone call that no parent should ever, ever, ever get.

    .223 reloads gone bad Help

    All of the reloading I did for a 14" barreled Thompson Contender I had was done with 748, Mil Surplus H322 and H335 and CCI Benchrest Primers. The H322 was what I finally settled on and would give me clover leaf sized groups. It also was the cleanest burning powder with complete ignition. The H335 would leave a few unburnt grains of powder in the barrel. I think most of the H322 powder I bought was about $6 a pound at the time. Just curious? Why are you using magnum primers?

    Bored out of my skull....

    That would make a nice tatoo.

    "If" the original owner registered it online you should be able to have Garmin contact them. I keep a business card in the case with mine.
