I want to reload, I need advice....
ctracingraptor replied to ctracingraptor's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I just purchased 1000 rounds of 5.56 ammo, to my door was almost $400. Like I said, i know nothing about the cost of reloading. But if you exclude the price of the press and dies and all the others stuff, we'll call that an investment lol. I mean just including brass, powder and bullets and such, there is no real saving? -

Thanks for the input! So can a progressive crank out the same accuracy as a single stage? I want to crank out alot of 5.56, and figure out a solid accurate performer eventually . For my 7mm I want to increase performance and accuracy. Handgun ammo i dont want anything special just enjoy shooting it. -
I got measured at Arizona Archery at 32" and I've found out I'm extremely limited in options, to either a PSE Freak or Hoyt Nitrum LD, and the Bowtech Boss. I also found the Bear Attitude. Does anyone else have any other choices for my draw length? I'm not sure how I feel about spending about a grand on my very first bow... Thanks

I have a sendero and im pretty sure it will fit, minus it's a .820 bull barrel and it wont fit your stock.... If you want to upgrade your barrel on your 700, you have alot of options....

If you're looking for a foreman or a super, I have a uncle that might be interested.....

I have a sendero, and its a tack driver for sure. God almighty its a heavy girl after a day of hunting. Might want to look elsewhere if 13 lbs or so loaded will be a issue. My buddies Tikka T3 lite is a dream to carry lol

BNIB: Samsung 51" TV---not hunting related
ctracingraptor replied to ctracingraptor's topic in Classified Ads
Yes, sorry guys. Had a family member in the hospital and completely forgot. All is well though. And yes i live in North Phoenix, I-17 & 101 area, pm me for any more details. -
Brand new in box, never mounted, never even been opened. I know is not hunting related, but i need to sell this tv to afford a new bow. I won this tv, and I honestly don't have a use for it. It's a 51" Samsung plasma tv. I've included the model number, so you can research it, if you're interested. Asking $400

32" Draw Length Options??
ctracingraptor replied to ctracingraptor's topic in Bows, arrows, broadheads
I've shot the Bear Attitude, I really like the bow for the price. But i had it maxed out 32" with no other room for adjustments. It just felt like it was a little short. Nice bow otherwise. -
Nice rig, i would love to own. Best of luck

32" Draw Length Options??
ctracingraptor replied to ctracingraptor's topic in Bows, arrows, broadheads
I did shoot a nitrum @ 31" and it felt a little short... -
I would be really interested, if you're able to iron out all the details.

I'm looking to purchase an entry level trail camera, somewhere in the budget of $120 or less if possible. After reading hundreds of customer reviews, it seems like the cheaper ones always get crappy reviews? Ive found a couple of older model cuddebacks online for cheap. I found a moultrie a-5 new for $60, and a stealthcam g30 for $99. Does anyone have experience with these models? Any opinions on the best trail cam for under $100. Any advice would be greatly appreciated...

i just saw a teaser commercial for the 26 Nosler. I was curious and started googling, I was reading chuck hawks review about the significant wind drift for the size and weight of bullet, then i ended up on a field and stream review. Is this bullet only dropping about 5 inches out to 400 yards. Is this normal when compared to other 6.5 calibers, the 26 nosler has my attention. I was already thinking about getting a 6.5 creedmor or a 6.5x284 normal. Anybody else hear anything about this round, or do you think its all promotional and might not stand there test of time.
-
It sounds like the 26 nosler is just a super hot round, where as similar numbers can be obtained using other 6.5mm's. Ammo for 26 is $60 a box. I guess i was more curious if other 6.5's had similar drops to 500 yards. I know what my 7mm does at 500 and its easy to dial for the drop. I guess the 26 isnt good for the person that like to shoot his rifles often and wants to hunt with them too.

The review says 600-800 rounds before the barrel starts to fall off. Yikes.
-
I would love to record that put it on YouTube lol

ctracingraptor replied to daverp's topic in Elk Hunting
My friend and i both have 5B tags, first elk tags for both of us. Wont be setting the bar very high on our first elk hunts. Probably not going to pass on anything first day. Just happy to be out of the house, and try to fill the freezer. -

Any special reason why to stay away from long lake and diablo canyon?
-
I kinda agree, i think i would rather go with quantity versus quality. I have just read so many bad reviews of cams "missing pics." what the point of having multiple low grade cams, if they consistently miss 20-50% of the shots? Also the whole infared light thing has me lost also. It seems light most come with IR light, some are black bulbs, some are white. Some create a blinding white flash who they complain, scares off game? Any opinions on that also?

Opinions wanted on Heavy duty trucks
ctracingraptor replied to Coues 'n' Sheep's topic in The Campfire
Im a ford guy, and yes I work at a dealership. im telling you the 6.7 is an awesome engine, you will be seeing the 6.7 around for another 5 years, they have no plans to change it. I could tell you some secrets....lol but id rather share in private. It rides better than most. Will tow anything, as they all will. They all use DEF fluid, so what, fill it up only when you change the oil, no biggie. There are no problems with ford transmissions, i mean none. The only downfall to a 6.7 is the engine braking could be more aggressive when towing. Are you towing something very heavy? A properly equipped f-150 will tow 11,300 lbs.....
