Photos of the t-shirt? -
No annual pass any more. Been going there for years. There have definitely been some less than friendly RSOs, but most are great.

You should be VERY happy with the new Exos.

Full length or neck sizing?

Gee, thanks. Make me feel like an idiot..... -
I have a buddy who should be getting one of the first runs. Can't wait to hear his opinion on it. He has/had other good glass to compare to as well. The 2.5-20x50 is a really appealing hunting optic for the sub-$2000 range if it has decent glass and good mechanics. "Decent glass" is subjective. I am sure it will be DECENT. For $2k, it better be. But, I am not a real fan of the NXS glass. Even some ATACR glass is not what I call "alpha level". The ATACR F1 seems to be a big step up from the many NXS/ATACR scopes I have shot behind. If it is better than NXS, these should be a huge success.

Full length or neck sizing?
lancetkenyon replied to Lazy-H98's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
I FL size every rifle, and every time I load brass. I only neck sized once....by accident. I purchased a set of Redding 6CM FL dies with bushing FL, and micrometer seating die. Never even checked the dies. Got 300 pieces of Lapua 6.5CM brass and ran them through to neck size (before Lapua 6CM was available). After shooting them, ran them through the FL die and bumped shoulders .0015". I did a huge no-no at this point. Loaded them up without checking fit of resized brass in the rifle. Did 250 pieces like this. Well, I took 50 of the FL sized brass and decided to try some 115 Bergers in the rifle. Seated one long to check CBTO to lands, and bolt was very stiff to close. I figured bullet must be jammed hard into the lands. Opened the bolt, and the brass had a nice shiny ring around the body just below the shoulder. Measured the area on the FL sized brass, a piece of fired, and a virgin brass..... FL sized .463" Fired .463" Virgin .4615" WTH? Checked the dies.....my "FL" die is stamped "neck". Argh! Bought a new body die and a new FL die. Ran the loaded rounds through the body die. .4615". Smooth like butter. Moral of the story (X2, maybe 3): 1. Check your sized brass in your rifle before you load it. I have never, EVER, done this before. Don't rush the process. Double check everything. 2. Check your dies. Manufacturers can make mistakes. 3. Don't neck size. -

I was 3 miles from the front on Friday at a radio site we built for MCSO. Got chased out by hot shot crews at 9:00am. It is right at the top of Fish Creek Hill.

More to do with quality of rifle, quality of loads, and most importantly quality of shooter than any cartridge choice. I have shot my Bushmaster AR .223 to 850 with a 90% hit rate on an 8" steel. And out to 1000 with a 70% hit rate. My brother has the same rifle, and went 0 for 10 at 850. Blamed the gun. I got behind his rifle with his ammo and went 7 for 10. That being said, I think an AR10 in .260 Rem/6.5CM even the 6.5 Grendel would be a good choice in an AR platform.

Emergency brake. I have lost brakes a time or two, and that always works for me. -

Success rates and some loaded questions
lancetkenyon replied to POk3s's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
Non-res are capped at a MAX of 10% of tags. Meaning that 10% does not necessarily always go to non-res applicants. Not saying you don't have a decent chance, but I wouldn't count your 100% guaranteed chickens until they hatch. Good luck in the draw. December hunts can be great. But can be tough like any other hunts. I had a buddy who drew a Dec tag in the "land of giant Coues bucks" (as he claims) last year. Bad weather knocked him out of 85% of his hunt. -
Color? Photo?

3 points or less on one antler. https://dwrapps.utah.gov/huntboundary/hbstart?SP=Deer&SE=Buck&TB=true

People.complain about how.long the draw takes anyway. Going live would.take weeks. It would need to be more like Barrett Jackson. Know what lot you are hoping for, and be there at the scheduled date and time.

Ask him how he plans on getting the felons and criminals to register their guns? Once he can guarantee that, then you can reconvene the discussion.

Best advice to give a person looking for a boat.... Don't. Rent one whenever you want to go.

As for the deer rut south of the Canyon, depends on how far south and how low. November-February.
