The logistics probably dictate OTR vs rail.

Always wanted one and I'm sure my son would get a lot of use behind it, if he can fin some ammo. I'm in mesa so text or call me @ 602-499-0six1 zero. I'm near Country Club/ 202 but can meet anywhere.

The 770's have a more tolerance on the bolts from what I have seen. Is it possible the magazine spring is putting too much upward pressure on the rounds?

Both my kids used my Remington 788 in 22-250 to kill a couple of Doe's on the Kaibab for their first hunts using factory rounds with Trophy Bonded Bear Claws from Federal which were 55gr. My son shot his at 35 yards and we did not recover the bullet. My daughters shot was closer to 175 and was a spine shot and the recovered bullet was 52gr's. This was in 2001 and I still have 14 rounds left in that box.

I use Bit Defender on Win 8 and it won't open up the links because of the Security Certificate. Did you post pictures?

If your flying into the bush check the regs on bringing propane in the plane, don't believe it is permitted but ask over here. http://forums.outdoorsdirectory.com/forum.php?

You only need to crimp if the bullet has a canelure. Recoil is fairly mild with both rounds but bullets can still be pushed back into the case causing excessive pressure so make sure the case necks are tight and don't load and unload bullets as that can also cause them to be pushed back.

They are usually always over priced. Try this SE. http://www.gunbot.net/index.php?cal=22lr

You're all heart, LOL. When my kids were little I would also spend more time baiting their hooks than being able to fish so I finally just gave in and let them have at it. But as soon as the fishing slowed down they would grab a stick or tree limb and some old line from the shore and spend hours catching crayfish.

I saw a bunch of those in Puerto Rico and IIRC on Oahu also along with a mongoose or two.

Walmart on Cortaro in Tucson had Wolf Ammo $5.99 a box a couple of hours ago and about 15 boxes of 9mm @ $13.99 a box.

Ammo is still high in price but has been dropping in price from where it was at close to 90 cents a round for the green tip stuff to about 65 cents a round and availability is getting better. It may take another 6 months for it to get more reasonable but it will be another year before it settles down.

I have caught saltwater Cats in Louisiana many times while fishing for Redfish or Speckled Trout. When they show up it's time to pull anchor and move on. Two type I have come across are Hardheads and Gafftopsail Cats with the Hardheads usually smaller. They will stick you with their pec and dorsal fins and it can get infected so we use a J shaped aluminum tool to flip them off the hook.

Go paper if you can.

I don't believe so.

I was poking around last night on another forum and came across these. I didn't know they were out there and was curious if anyone has looked through them and how crisp the glass is. This is the first scope I have seen with such a wide range of magnification. I don't expect it to be in the class of the ultra high end scopes and it isn't cheap, although they do have some lower priced models. I wouldn't use it to pound nails but the Bushnell's I have seen were rugged and without any problems. If you have looked through one does the eye relief diminish when zoomed to the higher power? I can't see myself needing 30X in the field but it would be a plus when shooting from the bench at paper beyond 200 yards. Optics Planet has them, not that I'm endorsing them.

I have no experience with the 30's but have hunted 32 a few times. It has both Mule and White Tail deer and on the west side of the Winchesters I have seen both. The closer you get to Muleshoe the WT may not be around there but I have seen some big Mule Deer in that area. You can also expect to see Javelina and the last time I was driving on the Three Links Rd I saw a heard of Antelope, about 5 years ago. If you hunt the early hunts expect to see snakes. Here is the Hunt Unit info from G&F. http://www.azgfd.gov/h_f/hunting_units_32.shtml

FB announced last week they would start cracking down but that's the first I actually heard on anything happening.

Greg, Is there a tripod adaptor available or made for the binoculars?

Dunno Don't Care?

Great pics, keep em coming.

Camel backstraps. Yum.

I haven't see any, road kill or otherwise. Where did you hear of them being in AZ?

Would love to go since the chance of getting a fall tag for anything here is looking bleeker and bleeker. Plus I need to do something constructive with the 45-70 I got last month.
