Where you located at? Would take about half an hour to get set up, teach you how to sweat a joint and get the PRV installed. Likely spend more time BS'ing about hunting than actually working.

How high is the water pressure coming in? I could show you how to install a PRV. As a home owner, knowing how to fix your plumbing and soldering are solid skills to have.

Always good to have another brother around. Welcome to the best hunting forum on the webz.

He's in Tucson.

I'll take it. Replied to your pm.

Worse than elk I am pretty sure. Sitting on 2 points for elk and put in for 9 early archery again. Pretty sure those are worse odds, but I may be wrong. Then again, that's how many points I had when I drew it the first time.

It is SPF. If it falls through, I'll add you to next in line.

Just curious how bad my odds are for speed goat with 8 bp's, resident. 2014- 10 rifle 2055- 19A 1st archery Already know how bad my chances are for elk, no need to confirm. Thanks.

Price drop on Glock.

20ga, Glock and revolver still for sale.

Added a pair of 22's.

This is a great small office printer. Unit is about a year and a half old. Used it to print 11x17's, but it will do up to 13x19 from the 2nd tray or 13x44 custom loaded. Two trays to load from, paper feeder for scanning or copying and wireless capability. Still have the box it came in, would need to check the Styrofoam packaging. I know I also have several color cartridges left, but no black. This would be a perfect unit for a small business/office that needed to print on larger paper. This has been my favorite MFC to use, but I have a laser unit at home and I just don't print enough at home to justify an inkjet. Asking $150 with the extra ink cartridges (will list later tonight). Here's a review. http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2405915,00.asp

It's got an old Weaver K2.5 scope on it that I want to shoot for the time being. As I've still yet to get dies for this, I have not decided on a bullet to go with, but was thinking of starting with the 100gr partition. With a max COAL of 2.850" in my rifle, any bullet longer than 1 inch will be into the powder. May also try the 100gr BT as well.

So I snagged a Remington 660 in 6.5 Rem Mag a few years ago, but was never able to find brass. I had contemplated selling it, but I finally managed to find some new brass two moths ago. So now that I have the means to actually shoot this thing, anyone have suggestions on what I should expect out of this thing? What's everyone's preferred bullet out of a 6.5? If I can get this thing to shoot, I'm thinking it might be about the perfect mountain gun. Thanks.

So I spent the day at the range, finally able to work on a bunch of loads that I've been working up since I got home. Found a sweet spot with 105 amax's out of my 243: 3146fps, .6" and single digit ES. Wish I could say the same for my 257 wby(Vanguard S2). I shot 5 strings of H1000 ranging from 68-72gr pushing a 115 Berger HVLD, and my average velocity between the strings was very close. 2945fps @ 68gr and only 3054fps @ 72gr. This is the first time I've ever come across such a small gain in velocity between charges of this size. Would the free bore have anything to do with this(I did load quite long, and Bergers are picky)? Makes me curious if I could push this any faster with H1000 or if I need to switch to RL25. Thoughts? Thanks.

I was in the same spot as you a few years ago and ended up going with the slik. It has served it purpose, and done so remarkably well given its price point, but definitely has its shortfalls. Using the center post to extend up to glass standing is doable, but quite unstable. Everything that others have said is spot on; get one tall enough to stand, more segments for collapsibility, a way to weight down a lighter tripod is awesome in heavy winds, etc. With that said, I've been looking at upgrading to a nice carbon fiber tripod this year. But I'm focusing on researching heads at the moment. If your budget can afford it, hold out for a higher end tripod.

Never owned one, but I've shot several. Preferred the feel of reflex sights over variable powered scopes on the ones I shot. Target acquisition was much quicker for me. Love the concept though and will eventually get one. Been thinking I could turn my Remington 660 in 308 into one if I could find the right mount.

Between Anthem and Cave Creek. 10/22 sold. Price on glock dropped.

Rifle is listed as a 10 twist, but I've not ran a rod through it to confirm. Never messed with QL, but I figured 72gr would be about max. My coal 3.295", which is as long as I could seat out and still support the bullet with the full length of the case neck. I wasn't able to seat to the lands when trying to figure out my coal. I'll try RL25 tomorrow.

No pressure signs, 24" barrel, and sub par accuracy. Best grouping I had was 1.12"@100yds with the 68gr load. My ES was 30-70 fps, depending on the load. The average velocities for the 5 strings were 2895, 2967, 3026, 3039 & 3054. I guess what really surprised me was the spread from 70-72gr. I think I'll try another powder or two, and if that doesn't work, I'll switch to some tsx or ttsx bullets.

Yep. PM inbound.

Full, mod & IC

Leica or g7?

It shoots up to 3". Think I may even have a box or two of 3" Kent Fasteel duck loads I'll throw in.
