Thx Flatlander. Enjoy the tripods and thank you for a smooth transaction.

Predator, Ill try and gather some info for you about the javelina hunting and PM you with it.

Mine too. We are only hunting the weekend of 1/26 and 1/27. What unit ? We are in 36.

Trying to get it setup for week of Jan. 28

Thx Andy. Its refered to as Ranch Estrellas these days. Access is thru the town of Estacion Llano.

Ranch is east of Benjamin Hill.

Looks like glass and stalk. We bring in food , can prolly pay a cook if needed. 7 days on the ranch.

Hunt includes permits, escort to and from Nogales border, ranch house and guides. Cooks are not included. Ranch is located 170 miles south of Nogales. Still working on dates. I have no idea on how well their “guides” perform. They have pics of some bucks that are over 100 “. They also claim to have albino javelina on the ranch. Ranch is over 3600 acres. Terrain looks somewhat mountainous.

Should know today.

It’s discounted due to becoming available so close to the hunt date.

$1600 each for a week. Still getting details. I have some pics of previous kills. They also have albino javelina on the ranch.

I have taken them into Mexico without any issues.

Good luck Ernesto. I would enjoy a follow up story with pics.

Sorry Ahawk, it sold yesterday after I posted. Thx Jim

Items 1 ,3 and 4 are SPF. One Vanguard 263 still available. $40

I have a couple of pro master 525s and they are pretty nice, but will prolly be a little short for anyone over 6 foot. They are going up for sale soon. I’ll can also sell you a Vanguard 263 with a Manfrotto 700 RC2 fluid head for $125. PM me if you are interested. If you are in the Tucson area, you are welcome to grab either one and field test them.

If you are spending the money on Swarovski or Meopta , make sure you buy a good stable tripod. Binos don’t bounce very well. Vanguard 263 and 264 are a pretty good value. Not the lightest option but they are stable.

Wow 35K would deplete my remaining lifetime hunting funds. Hopefully it includes top shelf drinks and entertainment.

Plus one on the Feisol. If you are looking for a less expensive option , I have a couple of Vanguard 263 models.

What kinda velocity with the hand loads ? Bump for a nice setup.

I have 2 of the Vanguard model 263 tripods. They are 3 section aluminum with lever style locks. No heads on them, just the center post with a 3/8 threaded stud. Both are good shape and functional. Specs can be found online since they are current models. One had the rubber feet replaced with an aftermarket brand that doesn’t have the metal spike. I’ve used it that way without issue. $50 with spikes $40 for the other one that doesn’t have spikes They are located in Tucson and I will ship for whatever it cost me.

Got a clean pair of 20 power Kaibab binoculars for sale. $600 shipped. $575 if picked up in Tucson thx Jim

Hi Patrick Funds received and being shipped today. Thanks Jim
