Sorry I didn't catch this sooner. I drive by there every day and work by the airport.

2017 Original Deer Leftover Tag List???
rossislider replied to rossislider's topic in Coues Deer Hunting in Arizona
As I recall Sean, there wasn't any leftover tags for where I like to hunt, unit 29. Never saw zero leftovers before. Were there leftovers in other units? Yes, there were in a handful of units. But the number continues to drop each year. -

We will be getting some XXLs, especially for the guy that donated his javelina for Draysen's first ever skull to practiced on. -
Decoy is spoken for.

We use to rent them, but for the most part have found Airbnb makes things a lot easier.

7mm Mag Tikka t3 Load Data?
rossislider replied to rossislider's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Forgot about this thread. Here is what I ended up with: Exactly 71 grains or Retumbo out of Hornady brass with Federal Match large magnum primers and 168 grain Berger VLDs. Set to magazine length. I am getting an average speed 2799 fps and shooting just under 1/2 MOA. It has been a great and accurate load for me. I had a 1 shot kill with it on my mule deer 2.5 years ago at 550 yards. -
That sounds like to tough one to find. Might have to wait till the fall season. Good luck, you do great work and I can't wait to see it.

Unable to understand how many on this site are able to ride bicycles
rossislider replied to cactusjack's topic in The Campfire
I have found that the type of offers I get in here tend to correlate with the wording of my ads. When I have expressed in my ad that the price is "firm" I don't get low-ball offers. If I state OBO, than I should expect to get some pretty low ones. I never blame a guy for trying to get the best deal possible if he seems legit, genuine, and respectful. All rules go out the door with Backpage and Craigslist. People on there are jerks. I will usually offer something on here for a little cheaper than I offer on those other sites just for not having to deal with the large quantity of idiots. -
Years ago I was driving up through the White Mountains and noticed a car stopped well up ahead of me off to the side of the highway late at night. By the time I was up there the car had moved on, but off to the side of the road was a cow elk. She had been hit, was smashed up pretty bad. She was struggling to get up, but it was clearly not going to happen. I put her down with my side arm and called it in to Game and Fish. They warned me and told me I should not have shot her and could be in trouble in the future. Knowing the answer would likely be no, I requested permission to salvage her and was denied. They said someone would come and pick her up very shortly. Several days later on my way back to the valley I drove past her rotting corpse in the same spot I left her, very visible from the road. I was pretty angry about the waste. Given the chance to do it all over again, I would still put her down to end the suffering. Who knows how long she might have been that way since no one came out from Game and Fish to take care of her. If AZGFD wants to go to the trouble to try to find me and track me down to cite me, than I guess I would be willing to deal with those consequences and that battle to do what I perceive is the right thing to do.

Jacob's Javelina Hunting Video: The Mountain Project
rossislider replied to IA Born's topic in Youth Hunters
Awesome! I'll be sure to watch it today after work. -
I'd agree with MogollonMan. That Ruger Predator is pretty much untouchable at that price point.

He just finished up this last batch and it is ready to go. If you haven't heard from him yet, you will by the end of the day. -
Let's see ALL the cool stuff you've done with Javelina...
rossislider replied to Mr September's topic in Javelina
Love that photo. It's strange sometimes how they just won't leave a fallen buddy. Same thing here, check out this video. They scattered and then came right back to lay with the one that was shot. Fortunately for us, it made it a lot easier to fill the second tag. -

rossislider replied to rossislider's topic in Taxidermy
Yes, currently they are $10 each. He is low on supply (I think mostly mediums and large left). He needs to reorder. Price will stay the same as long us the printer doesn't raise prices.do you ship? and how can I order??He hasn't shipped them out before. We would need to check into shipping costs. Where are you located? -

When you have waited this long, $80 is nothing to ensure you are maximizing your opportunity. Would suck big time if that big bull you are chasing crosses the property line as you are getting ready to take your shot, and you didn't pony up the money.

Those rugs are cool! Who did the work? -

I have a question about your badger. Does it have a second row of teeth on the front row of the lower jaw? My son did one for a member on here not long ago. We noticed this and didn't know if it was normal.

One Caliber in Arizona
rossislider replied to 10Turkeys's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
So my previous comment was clearly sarcasm, but since it has been asked, I'll list a few. Backup rifle (rifle gets dropped, damaged, etc). Multiple hunters in the family with tags for the same hunt. Youth hunter, might need something with a shorter stock or lighter recoil. Need might not have anything to do with it? Libels these days like to ask why does anyone need an "assault rifle" or a 30 round magazine. Are we going to go down that road too? -

Tough situation for you. Good luck and hope things turn around for you. Your buddy's situation is inexcusable. #priorities -
One Caliber in Arizona
rossislider replied to 10Turkeys's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I think a better question is, why would anyone want to only have one rifle? My vote would be for at least one of every caliber.
