I just weight sorted a bunch of Hornady 7RM brass....215gr to 239+ across 150+/- pcs.

I would take that freak ANY DAY!!!

Free. 30mm tube, 1.1" high alloy rings. Don't know the brand. I won't use them. Not super high quality, but not junk either. Located in North Central Phx. Near Phx Sportsman's Warehouse. I-17 & 101 area. Come and get them.

Prayers sent.

Great scope. I have one that will be going on my new .260AI. Been playing with it on a couple other rifles in the meantime.

We watched "the rodeo" from up top.

It was an EPIC opening day! So happy to see Brandon and Kyle kill a couple stud bucks. Watching these guys chase bucks from 3+ miles away was awesome. And it shows how these animals head out of Dodge when someone gets "too close for comfort". Some that probably didn't even get seen by the hunters. A double on opening day is amazing.

I will be available after Wednesday next week. Could help you on Saturday, 8-21 at the Joe Foss Shooting Facility in the morning, or available for a phone call either today or after next Tuesday too. PM inbound.

$130/1000

Not that I have seen, but I have been out of town for work 4 of the last 5 weeks. So haven't stopped in as much as I used to.

I run mine all night with a window flap partially open, but I also have a CO monitor in the tent.

Cabelas 8-man tent here too. Used it from -10° to 60+. With a buddy heater on the late hunt in 2019 in the snow, had to keep it on low and sleep with the bags cracked open. 2016 was no snow, but even colder. Nice and warm.

Just some new antennas for the CCSO.

Drove down to Sierra Vista this morning. Left at 5:00, rain. Poured almost to Tucson. Then, when heading back, rained from Whetstone to Tucson.

AZ City, like down by Picacho?

What idiot talked you into a Tangent Theta.....

For the Kaibab, there are two schools of thought (from what I have observed). Glassing: The early hunt will still have foliage on the bushes, so glassing will be a bit tougher. But it can be very productive if you can shoot well. And when I say "shoot well", I am talking out to 700-800, which is very realistic. This is my preferred method. Our shots have been between 18 and 882 up there. Road hunting: A lot of the guides, all they do, is drive all day. I know this from several guys who have hired guides up there. It works. But not my personal cup of tea. Not that I would refrain from shooting a big buck I happened to drive by. We have seen a lot of good bucks this way. There are a ton of coyotes, I have seen numerous cats as well. Like Flatlander said though, squirrels and jays are the top raiders of camps. I do not think there are any bears up on the Kaibab any more. Not in a long time. I have never seen a single bear track up there in my 30 years of hunting. As far as the two-legged raiders, I have not had an issue. But you never know. I don't leave anything expensive in camp when we are out. Never had an issue with my vehicle either. During the early hunt, most of the big bucks will still be almost nocturnal. You can catch them at first and last light if you are lucky. But they don't get big by being stupid. They save stupid for the late hunt.

Couple things... 5 BPs and you are already looking for a different option? HAHAHAHA! I have 27BPs for AZ, and still don't have a tag in my safe. Then again, I know people every year that draw with 5-10. So maybe it is just my terrible tag-drawing luck. NM is easy to get a private land tag, but getting permission to hunt a ranch, or hire a guide is going to cost you. Drive is anywhere from 8-12 hours. 3 day hunt. WY is not difficult to draw a tag, maybe every 2-5 years depending on unit. I am building points for up there, so when I want to go, it will be a guaranteed draw. But, there is legislation on the table limiting NR tags and capping to a certain percentage. So the 3-5BP days might be coming to an end. Drive is longer, but pronghorn are definitely WAY more prevalent. Big bucks are not as common, but when you can look at 100 bucks a day, you can be far more picky.

Muley

Elk chili? Elk sloppy Joe's w. Spicy coleslaw Elk burgers Elk meatballs for spaghetti (I have a killer recipe for this, baked) Elk lasagna Elk ground hash w. Diced potatoes and covered in melted cheese (soooo good)

Great bull.

I use Bayer Oust and Polaris mixed together. I spray my 2.5acres, and it works for about 2 years. Kills ANYTHING green. Trees, bushes, grass, weeds, etc. So be careful. I get mine from AZ Spray Equipment.

Adam, I run the 95mm on mine. I see no need for the 115mm unless you are a professional guide. If you don't have the body already, I think Casey Firstcoueswas80 is selling a 95mm body.

Unit 10? Tons of mulies in there. Now I am wondering if there is a troll around.
