The 888 are really simple: a channel knob and a volume, but I understand you can re-program them and get into all kinds of trouble, also. You can even get the police and fire channels.

you can get the Chirp Software for free and the cable is fairly cheap

You will want to call the Region V office and ask for the wildlife Manager for 34A. I know 35A&B is Britt Olsen and she conducts annual surveys with the help of hunters. She is a wealth of information. Perhaps, 34A has the same type things going on. Also, the Gould's Chapter of the NSTF in Sierra Vista is full of turkey fanatics and I am sure has great info. 34A has lots of public access. You will want a USFS map of the area. You are going to have an awesome hunt.

Very interesting firearm.

In case you have the s/n: Ruger No. 1 Caliber List and Production Data – Classic Sporting Arms Lots of years for 300 Win Mag. I have been looking for a 460S&W Mag: rare. I bid on one that went for over $2500. While I was looking for the information above, I found this: 2. Are there any rare or limited edition calibers for the Ruger No. 1? Yes, Ruger has released limited edition calibers such as the .375 H&H Magnum and .460 S&W Magnum, which are sought after by collectors and enthusiasts. Good luck with the sale. Beautiful gun.

There is a new consideration with the advent of the Pointguard Plus -- you get to go to the top of the line.

These seem to move quickly on craigslist. That's a good price too. You may want to try that.

For my sheep hunt, I had some excellent advice given to me by the outfitter: DON"T INVITE A BUNCH OF WEEKEND WARRIORS. There will be so much pressure to shoot a sheep on the weekend, it can lead to bad issues. Everyone wants to be in that photo. I suppose if you are able to manage expectations of those attending, it can work out.

Great addition to the giblet gravy for Thanksgiving.

Certainly, the XP or Target version are nicer, but my main point is that the extra weight for a small kid may be a bit much. The length of pull is pretty short. My 7 yr old grandson who is big for 7 could not hold it up but the length of pull is good. It is a classy little gun.

Note the XP is significantly heavier that the regular Rascl. Buds on-line or Western Drug or Sportsmans

I was on a very cold weather sandhill crane hunt. We stayed at an RV Park so it was no big deal but the water hose froze. You need to use internal water. I also have to the the little Honda generators for power if we go remote -- CPAP and O2 require a fair bit of power and the heater blower is not that big of a current draw and one generator will last all night. The daytimes were not all that cold that it would freeze internal water lines. I would never leave the trailer out all night with no power. The alternate and smart strategy would be to winterize while you are gone. You can NEVER be totally sure when you will get back. We learned that at our trailer park when friends did not make it back up when they hoped. Less than $20 in pink juice to winterize.

I prefer the savage also ... note there is Henry Rifle one to consider, also. I would love to get a stock extension for my savage so I could sight it in and use it after grandkids lose interest. I also got the wood stock for future mod capability.

CONGRATS! Javelina is coming soon! I used to know a guy like you but he was way younger!

How does it secure to the bed or is it just set there?

Even with near max points, if you put in for the more popular units, you risk not drawing as those tags go to the 20% pass with more points. After all 80% of the permits go to just those that are lucky.

great tag ... congrats

Consider getting a new ball with the proper shank size and of course lube it up.
-
Western Drug has some.

Walmart is pretty haphazard about having stuff in stock ... may want to check or just go amazon
-
I believe that is stovetop ... I had to look $20-$244. How in the world can a percolator cost $244???
