    WTB 410 shotgun for my kids

    Just a thought. I had a .410 for my son. Ammo was hard to find and almost $30 a box. For Christmas I bought him a 20ga semi auto for $275. He says it kicks way less and ammo is $9 a box with tons of options.

    First turkey for me

    Hard to beat a hard charging triple when you have a 12ga in your hands!

    Auction tags

    No they ask for money. I asked for a letter last year so I could use a work volunteer day and haul water with my truck and trailer. They said they would rather I donate money. Way better off to donate to Wildlife Waterworks Dan does great work and all the money is used for wildlife.

    I bet those birds move a lot after this next storm. Never hurts to look though.

    Turkey shot size question (Updated)

    Yes buckshot is still "shot" and legal. I use 3-1/2 4 buck on fall hunts.

    WTB Rem 600 stock

    I used a short action bell and Carlson stock. I had to use some epoxy but I don't remember it being to hard.

    WTB Rem 600 stock

    With a little work you can make a short action m7 stock work. I did that for my wife's gun

    2 tags back in 21 and I got #2

    I didn't count but I bet I was north of 30 for the summer. Only one we killed was 6'1 without the head

    2 tags back in 21 and I got #2

    Congrats! I had this tag in 2013 I think. At the time I lived in Cordes Jct and I was able to scout every weekend except 3 between the draw and the hunt. It was a fun hunt but the top 3 bucks I had picked out were all dead by 9am opening morning. I saw 3 bucks killed opening morning by a family that had 4 tags in camp. All 3 were hardly above their ears. I was glad when they cut the tags and hopefully the herd has recovered since then. I ended up with a mid 70's buck the 2nd day that I had watched in the junipers all summer. Don't overlook some of the thicker areas. I found them in places you wouldn't think they would be. This year that was my 2nd choice hunt just because of the low tag numbers. Have fun!

    4B OTC elk

    I know all those trucks aren't because of this thread but... Several years back I asked for tips for the youth doe hunt in 12aw from some guys that had been up there on the early hunt. One of them posted an exact spot where they were glassing from and seeing deer everyday. On the way to the spot I saw some papers in the middle of the road so I stopped and picked them up. It was a print out of the thread where I had asked about where to hunt. Long story short we met 2 other groups that were hunting that spot because of what was posted. I think guides posting all the pics online is probably the most to blame.

    Looking for a Sig cross

    Thanks. Really wanted a .308 but this is very tempting

    Looking for a Sig cross

    My son has his first elk tag this year and I need to get him a rifle. He shot a sig last week and liked it. I would prefer a .308 and camo but would consider other options. If anyone has one they want to sell let me know.
