100% diamondback. Juvenile, too, based on the single button. In Arizona, desert massasaugas only live in one small part of southeastern Arizona, in the tobossa grasslands along Hwy 80 north of Douglas. I found one DOR way back in the day during grad school while looking for mohaves along Hwy 80.

Anyone switched to copper bullets?
IA Born replied to Rudebob's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
My son shot a javelina on a youth hunt a few years ago. He used my M1 Garand with 150 gr Barnes Vortx ammo. The shot was 75 yards and left a softball size exit wound. No problem with expansion at all. I made the switch to Barnes back in 2008 and have never looked back. I used to be the California condor recovery program lead biologist. Feel free to reach out to me anytime. I encourage everyone to look for and read the Minnesota DNR's test results for lead vs non-lead bullets. They did it right. The lined up euthanized sheep and shot them with various kinds of bullets: non-lead, high-end and low-ed rapid expansion lead core, high-end and low-end slow-expansion lead core, muzzleloader, and shotgun slugs. They x-rayed every carcass and were finding lead fragments up to 24" away from the entry point. IMHO, MN DNR did the best test out there when the non-lead bullet craze really started taking off and there was all kinds of skepticism. I also have research articles regarding lead fragments in the grind when meat comes back from processors. Take all of this for what it is or isn't worth to you. I just like to pass on the data I have access to and can share those reports/articles with anyone interested. -

I was able to get an excellent load working for my son's 7PRC with Barnes 160gr LRX this weekend, so I no longer need the Barnes 168 LRXs I have. I have three unopened boxes of the 168s. $40/box. If you buy the whole lot, I'll cover shipping to you. In Flagstaff. Will be coming south July 4 to catch a flight.

Another Flagstaff Hunter Ed classroom class July 24-27. 13 seats left. This is for students wanting the entire classroom course, so we can't take online students for the field day. https://www.register-ed.com/events/view/230001

How does the 6 MOA dot compare to the 3 MOA for pistol? Was looking at this in the 3 MOA, but am now curious since I sold my Defender CCW and this has the DPP footprint that fits my P320

Unfortunately, only USFS lands were removed from the bill. BLM lands within 5 (?) miles of cities (paraphrasing) is still on the table. The Parliamentarian could only throw out so much, so Jackwagon Lee left BLM lands on the table. Apparently, he doesn't realize (doesn't care) that BLM land makes up just as much, if not more in some areas, Federal lands being used by all in the west as USFS lands. And last I saw the suppressor thing was still in there.
