26 points if a resident should draw almost every elk tag in AZ. I believe only 1 hunt last year was a 26pt draw. All other hunts were less.

They are a good crew and have a nice shop. I have bought alot of stuff from them that I could have bought at other shops alot closer to my house, but prefer to deal with them.

I will take it. I will PM you.

My son had a Gen1 Predator and it was a nice rifle. I am seriously considering getting a Gen 2 in 6mm ARC for a bench/steel/deer gun. They have alot to offer for the price point, and Rugers usually shoot really well. My buddies kid has a Gen 1 Predator in 6.5cm. I loaded a test load of 120gr Barnes TTSX in it, and his son fired a 3 shot group. It was 1 football shaped hole. It was wild to see an 11yr old who is a decent shooter just smash a group like that with a $500 rifle.

How long is the barrel? Are you looking for anything in trade?

If you are headed thru Phoenix, Trueshot Gun Club in Tempe is probably the best bet to buy bulk ammo locally. Sometimes AZ Ammo in North phoenix has good pricing too. Other than that, I would order from AAC and have it shipped.

Where are you?

Edit

Make a fire pit ring around it and have some patio beers this winter and burn it out.

I believe they will. But if the groups can get the bills on the voting ballot like they did in CA and CO it will be up to the people of the states and if all hunters and outdoors enthusiasts don't stand together for the small niche items like this they will push farther and farther. I was happy to see at the meetings that other minority hunting groups were standing up against this too. Partially self serving, but some had no stake in this. People from quail groups, falconers, and others were there standing up and speaking up. Elk hunters, deer hunters, dove hunters, and everyone else needs to join in though too.

I sent a PM. Please send me contact info when you can. Thanks Harley

Who went? If hunters don't step up for each other, the antis will come for the part of the tradition you want 1 day. They start with niche stuff most people don't like. Running dogs, Falconers, lion and bobcats. Then they go for bears and coyotes. No predator control leads to less deer and elk from you to hunt. Then they just go for more and more.

I had mine heavily doses with additive and plugged in the block heater every night. Never had an issue. One morning the block heater outlet had tripped though and I had to cold start my truck at like -15*f. It was the most horrible sounds for about 30 seconds.

I spent a winter in North Dakota with my first diesel. It saw -30*f. I used Power Service White Bottle or Stanadyne religiously. That said, I will be headed up north in my current diesel in the next couple weeks to get an Xmas tree and I am not super concerned. I will probably put some additive in lightly, but 20*f isn't that cold if you have fresh fuel that is winter blended. In the cold months they blend diesel for colder weather. It doesn't matter if it is Phoenix or Flagstaff, they all get the same fuel to my knowledge.

It shouldn't be a huge problem at 20*f, but anytime it is cold and I am leaving phoenix I add some white bottle Diesel Cleen, stanadyne, howes, etc.
