MULEPACKHUNTER

ya i saw the gun and dint even think about buying, i have a bull barrel thumbhole stock hmr and love it. when someone does a gun like that in the wsm i will be looking hard. thanks for the info.

Cabelas add shows winchester .17 wsm with accutrigger synthetic stock. Dont think anyone has ammo yet though??? No bull barrel either, Lame!!!

typed in ballistic calculator and there are a ton, I am going with the Applied Ballistics from Brian Litz.

Not working for me either just games

looks good congrats on the family afair

i was on the show and got a ladmo bag.

Hey thats my spot!!!!

could be anywhere, i noticed 6b south is bad in the canyons and 18 units are really thick. 27 still has alot of thick areas. who knows, hope when they hit they stay low and do some house cleaning then go out.

wow, thanks for the post, very unsafe. thank god all i have is cci and remington

seems like we have done this several times now but i do see some new packs showing up in this round. i pretty much went off of weight and price alone, i run the kelty red cloud and i think its 4000 ci not positive. 130 or 160 bucks i think it was on sale at sportmans. 3 years of some serious backpacking including the canyon and all type of weather and load config. its light and cheap and its not had one issue. under 4 lbs and closer to 3 lbs dry. have ran 50 lbs in it easy and could run more. good luck, getting the pack is the easy part, packing deep is another story

Great idea and service. Congrats and keep it up.

mid january i glassed a bear in 22. kept telling myself it was a cow. i was solo backpack. lol i think i saw like 10 plus bears in 2013

22S

Welcome, there are no animals in AZ,,,at least not ELK or DEER so just hunt the rest of the stuff and you will love it. JOKE

dont know how i forgot him but marty robins could throw it down.

will hoge,,,strong my wife dedicated that to me and i teared up bad. also trying to be a man, watch the youtube solo performances of those 2 songs and you will be hooked on this guy

check out a new guy "will hogue" i believe is his name, look on youtube for his unplugged. he is so good he is not on the radio. radio artsits are sellouts alot of the time or buy their way in, listen to this guy and notice he is not on the radio and you will know what i mean

So this is listed as a daypack, are you backpacking or just day hunting with it? Mine I use backpacking up to 7 days, I really like the set up and 4.5 isnt bad for weight, actually they list on the website at 3.9 lbs. If It would work for extended trips and I could get a deal like that I would go for it too. Let us know how it holds up

plus one on the audio books, my wife and i buy a new one every road trip up to the cabin, way to go on the old crow mention in there and ledoux is tops, little joe the wrangler. gotta have some kid rock and 5 finger bad company puts me in 7 minute mile mode.

That rocks nice job

Wow, we need to tune your pack a little??? I can run 3 days backcountry at 35 lbs including spot scope tripod and pistol, a good book and all the needed items for safety including gps. I dont go in where there is not water to be had so that makes a big difference, was there water anywhere where you were at? I do hunt an area where water is 5 miles away and day 2 is spent muling water back to camp. Usually day 4 is the same but 6 or seven days can be had still running 40 to 45 lbs going in. The water haul afternoons are tuff but you can hunt all that way so its not terrible.

Is that the empty weight? Yes sir, I wish it was fully loaded weight. I just know I look at these hunting specific packs and they are all heavier than mine and cost alot more. My buddy has the badlands 4500 or whatever and its 6 plus pounds empty. I will stick with mine and buy another when it takes a dump and still will not have spent as much as he did.

my kelty weighs 3 lbs and has held up great no issues and is 170 bucks, no need to spend like a king on a pack. the hunting pack market is crazy and some are very nice but too much money. most high end packs are heavier than my pack but double the price if not more. congrats on a very nice pack, if i had expendable cashflow i would do this pack its a good design

I was having the same problem last year not finding any pigs and it took me like 10 full days in different areas until I caught them, Now I trip over them all the time. Just keep looking, where you were your were in the right place but up there you need to get off the road a ways and find some drainages.
