muledeerarea33?

thanks NRS I will contact him and talk to sportsmens aswell. coues7 I didnt know you guys already did one this year or I would have been there.

kast1 maybe if people see it clean it will reduce the amount of trash left up there (note i said Maybe) and if it continues to happen we did our part and tried all I want to do is put in the effort. as far as a date start throwing out suggestions? I was thinking early on a sunday morning?

I have been going back and forth between getting a new rifle or having my old 30-06 rebarreled and blued. I am leaning toward getting the ole girl back shooting good again but I am having a hard time finding a gunsmith in Tucson to do the work. I called Harry Lawsons they have done some work in the past and are very very good I think but they are also very very busy. the response I get from every other smith or gun shop is "nope we don't do that anymore, no dont know anyone that does. They are all either dead or too old" I am willing to drive to phoenix or sierra vista as long as they can have it done before my november hunt with a little time for break in. I appericiate any reccomendations thanks Daniel

thanks for all the reccomendations guys. red rabbit it still shoots pretty good I could use it for this hunt without any prolbems I am just thinking of making it like new again or better. I know I should of thought of this earlier this year and got it done but hein site it was my dads gun he bought as a kid in like 1965? so I just want to keep it in the family and working well. but thanks again for the help

I wasnt aware they had takeoffs. I guess I will have to go there instead of calling and talk with them. thanks for the info

I think we had this topic last year but dont really remember? what is everyones opinion on having a fire while on a hunt. if you are camping within a few miles of your prime hunting area because if you dont the prime spot might be taken by another hunter is it ok to have a fire? if you are several miles from where you are hunting is it ok? what do you guys think

thanks for all your posts. I was planning on a cold camp the day before the hunt since we are gonna be right in our hunting area on opening day then having one the next few days we are there. my buddy thinks I am being the hunt nazi. to each his own i guess

I dont see the big deal here. If they say no checks how hard is it to take money out of the bank and go buy a money order? if your gonna put it on a credit card and cant afford the tag fees then you need to cut your personal debt. thats americas debt prolbem anyways

whats the amount of bonus points you need before they draw you? I have 8 as of this year

I just hope it doesnt happen here anytime soon. I wont give all my guns to the gov.

they really werent doing much to stop the burn just maintaining it. kinda like a perscribed burn. they needed to get rid of some of that brush up that way anyway since the inviro's wont let them clear just mother nature taking over

who was the guy in the red dodge i saw in the mule creek area on sunday afternoon? looked like you were scouting or something.

ok these things gotta go price reduced to $24 . but seriously anyone?

I have roughly 400 laser cast silver alloy .452 and 100 moly coated .452 bullets that I cant seem to get to shoot well out of any of my 45's. these I beleive will work in a colt 45 as well as acp. $25 for the lot or trade for something cheap I guess? I just want to get rid of them. tucson only please. thanks Daniel

this is not loaded ammo just bullets

your probally going to want to get an aluminum block engine with alu. heads. thats what marine motors are usually made of.

if its still there the talwiwi lodge(spelling?) is a real nice place

First off some of the mini 30s are very inaccurate weapons as are the mini14s but there are ways to help it. as far as the cleaning try your stainless brush first and if it is still dirty break the gun down to just the barrel and action. try performing a procedure called reverse plating. bassicly you plug the chamber end of the barrel with rubber find a rod that is about an inch longer than the barrel and smaller in diameter than the caliber. the rod goes in the barrel and touches the rubber stop at the other end By no means can the rod touch the barrel. fill the barrel with amonia (I use a concentrated winshield washer solvent that I get from work. works great.) then take a 6v battery with some jumper wires. connectone to the rod and one to the gun . the solution should start bubbling or foaming. keep an eye on it as you will have to refill occasionally. let it run for about an hour then dump it out and clean normally. if its still dirty do it again a few times. I have stripped some pretty nasty stuff out of old millitary rifles that normal cleaning couldnt get. you can find all this info online in various places. as for the action sticking closed I know on mine that the gas tube gets really dirty on the ribs and a little steel wool takes care of that and frees it up nicely. If the gun is still inaccurate as was my mini14. remove the front site cut 1inch off the barrel recrown and reinstall the site. if your not comfortable doing this take it to a gunsmith. I know it took my mini from about 4-6 inch groups at 100yards to just under 2inches. wich is pretty good for a mini. the only other option i know of is spend the 800 bucks on a accuracy kit. hope this helps you out and doenst just look like a ramble.

this was year 8 for me and no elk. but thats how it goes I guess.

If thats the dwelling off the road going to rattle snake gap I have been there many times cool place. there is an old mine shaft about a mile or so over the mountain that is worth checking out too.
