Kuiu and Sitka are my 2 favorite camo's. They both breathe very well, and stretch with your movements. They are more of an "athletic fit" but you do not have to be in top notch shape to get a good fit. I am 5' 9" 175lbs and wear a large in uppers and 32" in lowers. I have been pretty impressed with most of the kuiu gear I have acquired.

"How did I live without it?" Hunting Gear
HuntHarder replied to rossislider's topic in Other Hunting Gear
I would say one of my biggest upgrades has been my Kifaru backpack. It is amazing what a properly fitted backpack with superior load carrying capabilities will do for a guy. -
Looking at the rebate website, this particular scope may be excluded. Looks like they list almost every other HD5 except this model.
-
I tried to resist, but I also bought one. If the rebate works, which I do not see any reason it will not, The scope is less than $500.00. Thanks for the heads up
-
If you want the target turret, Kenton can make you an MOA turret for it or a load customized one. I think they run about 130$. Looks like maybe a $150.00 rebate on HD5 scopes as well.

Let's hear it vehicle options for momma ?
HuntHarder replied to Eagle mountain ranch's topic in The Campfire
Mine fell in love with the 4runner as well. We have had our '14 4runner for 2 years now with 0 issues. My only complaint is the lack of power in the v6, but it is perfect for her. I believe she is getting right around 20MPG too. -
EL 10x42, Nikon 82mm ED spotter and a Nikon Ed50mm spotter. Usually pack the 50 unless I know ahead of time that where I am hiking to is going to need the extra power of the 82mm ED.

I ended up with 2 of these, and have no need for 2, so I am selling the unopened brand new one. It is still sealed from the factory. I upgraded from my Leica CRF1200 last year to the Sig and I have been really happy. Super fast scan mode and I have been able to hit a freeway exit sign at over 2000 yards. $400TYD shipped or pickup in North Peoria.

Maybe, I am no pro, just my guess. I gave him 7" bases
-
SOLD

Geezz did that guy dip his horns in shoe polish? Has to be the shiniest set of horns I have seen. Low 70's is my guess.
-
LOL no more big bucks on fain. I can just about guarantee there will be more than one 80" buck, to be had on fain this year.

I would not hire a guide. I think that is the challenge of getting a great tag in this state. It is to often that people look at these tags as "once in a lifetime" and I have to kill 200" or bust. I enjoy the challenge of learning a new unit and setting personal goals. I want to kill a 200"er as bad as the next guy, but if I was guided it wouldn't be as sweet. I do not look down on guys that use guides, but for me, I would not. There are situations where a guy might not have the time to scout and a guide or scouting package would be a wise investment.

Which factory ammo to extend range/accuracy of my .270?
HuntHarder replied to Viper's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
No one can tell you what ammo is going to shoot well in your rifle. I would suggest you get a box of your 2 most wanted and see which one shoots best. Every bullet you listed will do well out to 500. The higher Bc bullets start to shine at longer distances >500. In factory ammo, I have had good accuracy with Federal premium and winchester supreme. -
Mid to high 80's
-
I had this tag last year for the first time, and we made the best of it. We went 3 for 3 on the first weekend but finding 70"+ deer was a challenge. Lots of deer, lots of people. With that said, I picked up the same tag this year and am planning on giving it heck again this year.
-
36a for me. Should be another fun trip down south.
-
Each person in 2014, pretty easy to get at the BLM office next to deer valley airport.
-
I too spent some time in 40B. As Notags said, he took a great ram in 2008, and then my hunting partner took a good ram in 2014. Lots of great rams in the unit. Pm me with any questions, and I will answer to the best of my ability. We spent a bunch of time in the unit during scouting trips and saw a bunch of good rams. Some of which should still be alive. Go get your Berry goldwater range clearance as soon as you can.

I picked up a Marathon seat cover for my back seat. Seems to be pretty good quality and a good fit.

Call on Monday or Tuesday after they update the list and ask.

What did that buck end up scoring? I put a stock on him opening morning of 2011 im pretty sure. I am guessing he came off of Fain? Later on in the hunt, my hunting partner missed him at 40 yards! I could not believe he made it thru both archery hunts. What did the goat in your profile picture score? looks like a stud buck for sure. Thanks, He Scores 78 1/2". Great buck for sure, but I'da lost some money on what I thought he was gonna score. haha! Weaker top mass left him shy of the 80" mark. 19A is a fantastic hunt, with lots of stud bucks. I think I blew all my Antelope luck on my first 3 tags, and now I will have to join the Majority and wait another 20 years for another.

I picked up the 6.5-20x50 Vx3i with the 30mm tube and wind plex. Scope seems pretty comparible to the the Vx3 line. They say it is "improved." I am happy it so far, but I have only sighted in a rifle and I have not put it thru it's tracking paces yet.

Agree with the above. The tetons are best for catclaw, but still not ideal. Honestly, I do not think any of the higher end camo's will hold up very well in catclaw country. You might get a season or 2 out of them at the most. I am ok with this because they are soooo much more comfortable than jeans or 511 pants. Another that I wear quite a bit are the Prana zion's. They are solid colors only, but I think they are pretty sweet for rifle hunting. Great review Pac: I am in need of a puffy in the hear future, and I am trying to decide between the Kenai or super down. How small does the Kenai compress to?
