How much do you need? I have a few bottles and could probably spare one. If a bottle will help you out, shoot me a PM.

I'm aware of the B of A issue from a few years ago. Anyone hear of any recent issues with B of A and the draw? Who used a B of A card last year? Did it go through fine?

As any who listen to and follow Steve Rinella's Meateater show and podcast know, he is a big advocate for keeping federal public lands as they are. I have always been highly impressed with Steve and his very intellectual approach to wildlife and outdoorsmans rights. I don't think there are many better advocates or representatives among celebrity outdoorsman in these areas. In his latest episode of the Meateater podcast, he really dives into a lot of these issues. I'd encourage everyone to download and listen to it. The whole two hour episode is very worthwhile. But as relates to recent events dealing with federal public lands and their potential transfer to state ownership, begin listening at around the 1 hour 28 minute mark. http://www.themeateater.com/podcasts/episode-053-greg-blascovich/

Like everyone else has said, I'k keep my expensive optics in my carry on. To much opportunity for those to go missing.

Hmm... This gets more and more interesting.

No but I did stay at a Holiday Inn Express last night. Wife finally kicked you out huh? Bound to happen sooner or later as much as you are gone hunting.

oh there you go pointing fingers again if I told you once I told you a thousand time I am not a "wierdo". Well I wasn't going to call you about by name...

Great essay! One suggestion, I would probably post a version that omits the last page with her name, phone number, and address. There are too many weirdos out there (and maybe a few in here ). Again, congratulations!!!

You can fill out the paperwork and submit electronically now. I did it a couple of years ago and had the codes sent back to me within an hour. Sorry don't have the current codes.

Isn't Goodman the guy who runs ground pounders?They focus on a lot of the same areas, and I believe are good friends, but definitely different crews. Goodman Outfitters is primarily Ty and his boys.

The previously mentioned would all be at the top. I'd also consider Ty Goodman's crew.

I can see this one getting locked down pretty quick...

Man I wish they made one of these long enough to get my Ranger on it. Nice setup!

Dang! Hope my wife doesn't hear about this.

That double main beam buck is a beast!

168 grain Bergers with Retumbo has been the winner for me. But I've also got buddies who have had great results with just about every powder mentioned. I'd say if you have any of the mentioned powders for other rifles, start there. I try to find common powders for as many of my rifles as possible to minimize having to buy many powders. I use Retumbo for my magnum rifles, H4350 for my large rifles, and H335 for my small rifles.

What would you consider the best spotter ?Depends on your budget.Why do all you guys do that ? I kinda understand but I asked for it just say what you think the best spotter is ? Hands down, the best spotter is the Swaro 95. But buying it also means one of your kids won't be going to college.

Check with Stan, the Bass Pro archery shop manager. I'm pretty sure he is an official scorer.

That is awesome! I need to get the details on that contest for future years.

Stainless or blued?

I went with the 12x50s because I carry a spotter for far stuff and I don't want to carry around 2 pairs of binos.

Are the raffle tickets in-store only? Sorry if I messed them in one of the links.

Mark and his team have always taken care of me above and beyond the service I have gotten from the big guys. Everyone should definitely check them out.

I have the 12x50 el and new Razor 85 combo you mentioned. Great combo. I'd go higher end on the binos since that is what I use 90% to 95% of the time when glassing. As much as I would love a Swaro spotter, I know I personally wouldn't get the use out of it to justify the steep cost increase to upgrade from the Razor.

Hey, I'm shopping for someone with 15+ elk points to rent.
