Should I upgrade from 30-06?
Swivelhead replied to andyyy's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
If you have not done so already, consider spending your money on long range accessories prior to acquiring a new rifle. High end scope, chronograph, rangefinder, ballistic programs, etc. Learn to use these accessories with your existing rifle, get proficient, upgrade the rifle/cartridge down the road. -
Did a private trip October of 2018 which was the wettest October in recent history. Stayed wet and somewhat cold which was the only negative. Sixteen days, got out @ Diamond Creek. Used Moenkopi for our gear and shuttle. The gear provided was very good as were the provisions. We were fortunate to have former river guides/boatmen on our trip who provided strong leadership. Get in shape and take care of your feet while in the canyon. Trip of a lifetime! We had good trout fishing till the water clarity went south from all the rain. Nothing of any size, all 12-14" rainbows caught with anything shiny. Expect monsoon action during your August trip and therefore, water clarity issues.

Outstanding ram, congratulations! How old? I'm guessing 9 .....

Speaking from experience, BFG muds are great tires but don't last long on a heavy vehicle (Diesel F350 LB CC got about 25 - 30K on 37's). Sounds like you don't drive much, rotate regularly and you could get 40K.

Devil fan since the late sixties, ASU athletics at an all time low. Time to clean house. AD, Edwards and Hurley, send em' packing. Integrity is everything.

I don't have personal experience but a coworker steadily cussed the one he had. Computer issues, death wobble, etc.

I hear ya, witnessed an F111 fly down White Sage wash in 12B, it was flying incredibly low and FAST. I was on foot and did not hear or see it coming. Aircraft passed within a hundred yards of me, dang near cost me a pair of underwear.

A friend had a place off the Table Mesa road near the Agua Fria many years ago. Spent a lot of time at his place. A-10's flew through regularly very close to the ground. If we were lucky enough to spy a "hog" approaching we would perform a vigorous fist pump, in return, they ALWAYS gave us a wing waggle. Great memory and an outstanding aircraft.

^^^^^ This! Current management practices, i.e. female harvest objectives, mandatory reporting, etc. is sound management. AZ will have bears, lions and bobcats as long as there is available habitat.

When practicing whether rifle or bow try to execute a relaxed shot, i.e. no target panic/buck fever. When hunting remember to transition from hunter to marksman at the moment of truth.

You might give Nelson Ford "The Gunsmith" a call. I know he is fond of 870's & 1100's because both have steel receivers. He don't like aluminum or plastic.

Odds say I won't draw again this year, have not had an AZ tag EAB since 2014.
