Here are some more pictures to show no scratches from being mounted on the rifle.

That's a very nice blacktail! A lot bigger then the ones I hunted on Sullivan Island! I do miss those six deer tags a year and not having to be draw for anything! I grew up north of Juneau, in Haines. If only I get my wife to move up there but at least I am planning a trip up there next year.

Shoot all the badgers I see are along side of the road!

Fast sell! Too bad I wasn't on earlier!

Is that girly rifle included?

Price?

If we are asking about windshield wipers might as well ask about mudflaps. Plus I can only see one..

Mudflaps?

I have beed interested in picking up a pair of these new Ziess conquest but after looking throught them I noticed there wasn't an tripod adptor on the binos. I am leery on using one of those universal rubber strap tripod mounts. Has anybody have any experince using those kind of tripod mounts?

http://www.fmjobs.com/ Here is the link for Freeport- McMoran job list. Good luck but their hiring process is a bit on the slow side.

Ya one of the guys I put in with got the email just saying we got drawn for deer. Since I was on the same app just waiting for my email. Yup just got my email, got drawn for deer.

I called them up and asked if I got drawn and she told me the hunt number.

Sweet I got the 2A/2B cow tag left over! Better then sitting at home!

Yup already says I have a deer license when I try to add the private license to my cart. Haha haven't told the wife I even put in in New Mexico. Better to ask forgiveness then permission in my book.

Saw your truck at Lowes, had a couple of coues stickers on it as well but I liked your mud flaps the best!

Ya you have to pay up front for New Mexico but they will even refund your hunting license if your not drawn.

I am looking at getting a new scope for my rifle. I had a vx3 4.5-14 but I wanted some more magnification. I am looking at the vortex pst 6-24 or the ziess conquest 6-20. What are your guys suggestions? I have a vortex viper hs and I like it, so leaning towards the vortex now.

Aren't you suppose to be working?

Good find Adam! I am going to try em on my Nikon buckmaster, worth the 25 bucks!

I did recover the bullet in the opposite shoulder or what was left of it. The bullet had turned into shrapnel instead of expanding and retaining its mass like the accubonds are suppose to do. What was left looked like the hornaday sst I use on deer. If I can find the bullet I will post a pic. Not too sure where I put it but the bullet dropped the elk on its tracks so what else could you ask for?

I use RL22 with 63 grains of powder, chron at 2830 and shooting 3/4" groups at 100 yards. Broke my elk's shoulder and destroyed the lungs at 112 yards. Dropped him in his tracks. Hopefully get to see what they do to a couse deer this weekend!

Yup crossed paths in the afternoon. You got the rifle tag down there or archery? Like the Bubbles avatar.

That's was me out scouting for the dec hunt. Saw the ford when I left but not the dodge.

Glassed some bulls up opening morning and put a stock on them but they feed over the ridge by the time I got into range. I found some more bulls on another ridge. Worked my way over the them and jump one out of his bed. I ran after him and saw him running up the next ridge over. I pulled up my 7mm and dropped him in his tracks at 3 pm. I started working on him and my hunting party(packers really) showed up around 5pm. We got him quartered up and packed out a some meat that night, got back to camp at 10pm, headed back up to him Saturday morning, boned him and packed him out. It was my first elk hunt and my first bull and I am very happy with him. I want to thank Adam (Big Browns) for meeting up with me and showing me some spots in the unit and I hope to help him with his Dec coues hunt down here. This is the only pic I took because I want to get as much done before it got dark on me. He was a 5x5 but one point is broke off.

What about a 7mm barrel?
