I'm telling you just save up a few hundred dollars more and get the Leicas 1600 B. On a good day I can range out to 1800 yards. No problem doing a 1000 yards, and if you hit dark objects it's pretty easy to hit 1600 yards all the time. You can set it up for angle adjustment, so it takes account the angle and reads back true horizontal shooting yards. Also ballistic shots for your rifle which I haven't done and figured out yet.

Yeah these high quality brand camo company never thought about testing camo in Arizona. Camo jean or carharts works great. The nice rolling couse hills and mountains with the lush grass can be nasty. You sit down to glass and this grass out here just buries it's self into your back side unless your wearing carharts or jean camo

I'm crying from laughter!!!

I've been doing research for a future coyote gun. Something with low recoil, with enough weight to reach out and touch and can handle the wind better then the little .22s, This will be primarily for yotes, and maybe deer in the future if and when i choose. The 3 gun debate is the 22-250, .243, and 6.5 creedmoor. I know there are a lot of 6mms and 6.5s out there but let's keep it simple to those 3. I've seen results with .243s and the 22-250, but the 6.5 CM has really caught my eye. The problem is all the research, and writes ups and forums are all old back to 2008-2010. I know the CM is coming up swinging right now and lot more reloads and ammo for it, but I haven't seen any new write ups. So what are your guys thoughts, pros and cons, loads for a good yote round on those 3 rounds? Your answers will curve my appetite for research

Lance what's the BC on the 95 grain v max for the creedmoor vs the 95 grain .243? Or would you just keep a heavier bullet regardless with the CM for yotes?

That's a cool looking buck. Great job! I haven't heard back if you nailed any of those yotes in 36B?

Looks goofy. But I don't need those. I shoot from the hip and get a 1 MOA at 350 yards

I knew of a job superintended that did this, and was successful on both of those Hunts, so two deer for that year. So I now it happens. But I believe that game and fish does not do too much about investigating or changing regs because of all of the low success rates in archery hunting anyways. Thats my guess.

Hunted down south today. Cold and the buck in my area was rutting hard. Even a couple of spikes were trying to make a move in the ladies.

I looked around but didn't find any topics on this. I was reading in a predator magazine and it said that Alaska banned drones for hunts. i totally agree with that and I don't know what AZ stances is on this. I would be in favor to ban drones for hunting but what about for scouting on non hunting days or even a week before any hunt starts? What do you guys think of those?. From what I hear they are only a few hundred bucks and I could understand how that could give some good Ariel view to find that water source. I don't know! Food for thought? At the same time we have done good with out them.

I know just having fun with the wink

I know, just having fun with the wink

Full metal jackets??

Well good because my heater had been acting up, and around 5'am it stops working. So I have been doing it all week. Besides that if It didn't have a problem I would still burn!

Bergers work great for the most part. I haven't heard of to many failures but there are some with the big boy guns. My buddy shoots the 30-378. One big gun pushing I think a 210', can't remember. But up to 3200 fps. The Connecticut energy is the same with my 140 grain .270 at 200 yards when his hit 700 yards. He smacked a bull elk strait to the ground at 700 yard. It got back up and slowly walked off. He couldn't connect with it limping off. We followed the small blood trail for about 1/2 mile before it stop. He he hit it behind the shoulder and out the other side, so good placement, but we lost it. After some investigation somebody on YouTube had the same thing and recovered there bullet. Bregers are design to Hydro shock and expand within a couple inches once it hits the target. Apparently the guys on the video didn't do that it almost look like a full metal jacket. Then I read on a form somewhere else that a guy have the same problem when shooting far distance and called the factory and what he said they claim to say, was 1 out of every 100 with in 500 yards will not perform right when hitting the target. 1 out of every 20 out to 700 and beyond will not perform right when it hits the target. But that's what he said and we are led to believe only his word. Mao we think we might of been that 1 out of 20 bullet. On paper they always fly great. But the Long Range Accurbond are the complete opposite. The bullet works best on impact the farther the shot, and it's been known to not perform right while shooting close and fast. I shoot the 140 grain accurbond and it has performed well and I haven't heard any bad news about it close and far. But a less BC compared to Accurbond LR and Berger. But at last would I still buy Berger bullets for your rifle. I probably would. That or the Nosler accubond for me

I'm heading down south this weekend after this storm passes. Should only be 46 for the highs on a sunny day. Hopefully it should be in full swing where I'm at

Just make a fire

How does emCreedmoor compare recoil to the .243??? Same, a little less, can't tell???

Yeahhhhhhhhh! I've been waiting for this post.

The dead one could be his younger brother. The left forks almost match from what I see

Sorry it is cartridge. Once I establish a cartridge I want I'll probably look really hard into a rifle.

Well done

Don't give up!! I'm going to keep up on this thread. I better see pictures in a few days with those no good yote in them. Happy hunting.

I've read it. I actually know one of the Boy Scouts that saw the man Jump off Havause Falls ( swan dive) came up and staggered around. The scouts pulled him out and then he died. He said they just pulled him to a shaded area and went to bed that night. Somebody had to hike out to get authority's.

I have hunted gamble quail all my life and I can't remember that I ever found or shot at quail in nice small rolling hills. When I do go that route they are never there. I always find them near or on the side of big hills or rugged terrain. Even this morning I got the chance to go out a few hours to a new location. I first went in the easy walking areas and then about face towards the more rugged terrain and sure enough there they are. Has any one notice the same pattern? Or is is just my luck?
