    I'm out

    Funny how my post got called out by what? 3? 4 people? Because I actually have enough respect for the animal that IF I was to kill a toad, I'd put it in the books? I could care less about ego and the books. Sure, I want to kill a big ole buck that will make the book, but it has nothing to do with "my buck is bigger than yours." I couldnt care less how big or small some one elses deer is. If you are happy with it, who gives a rats butt what it score. Why do you think I have killed a spike, fork, (2) small 3x2's and posted pictures smiling? Maybe I am the only one on here who actually has respect for the animal I hunt. Por ejemplo... Shooting my buck in December in the head... Didnt want the deer to suffer all though he was dead deer walking.

    It doesnt bother me either, I see it as a useful tool and will use them when ever possible if thats what is needed to make the hunt succesful. The only problem that extends from this is the fact that he is killing these GIANT deer, and none of them are in the record bools. Seems dis respectul to the animal and makes it seem that the only reason he kills is to stroke his own ego.. Money, hunting fame, etc etc.

    What would it take?

    Coues: Any buck that stands there and watches my arrow fly into his kill zone. Muley: 3pt or better that stands there and lets me fling an arrow at him. Last year, I had 8 different muley bucks stand there and look at me with bow in hand. All were semi decent bucks too. go figure what happens when you have your first choice tag!

    7mm Rem Mag

    You will be pleased with the gun. I would shoot a 140 Accubond or 140 TSX and call it good!

    WTB - Swarovski 15's

    Dude, don't take it too harsh. Alot of the Swaro crew guys are real touchy when ever anyone mentions any other binos... Gino ESPECIALLY!!! As long as you have binos that YOU like and YOU can find game with.. Who cares what brand they are.

    WTT Kimber 22-250

    It is 100% original, minus a trigger job. I did the trigger myself and it is a fair trigger. Not excellant, but not bad. About 3 lbs. I am not looking to sell, just trade for a high quality spotting scope.

    New Swarovski product?

    I dont get it... What has changed from the "old" EL? I guess "If it aint broke, dont fix it." Doesnt apply... They will probably still be second in line to Leica though who continues to come out with new, improved stuff rather than the same ole same ole!

    Carrying Handgun while hunting

    you would be surprised, that would prolly fuction just fine. I clean my XD-40 once, MAYBE twice a year... That gun is carried 70 +/- days a year, and shot prolly 400 rounds or so. Has always worked like a dream. Only time I clean it is after 200+ rounds, or if it gets blood on it. It has never ever let me down. Can not speak high enough for them!

    Check out this dude!!

    He's a buck I might think of passing on to see what he turns into! Id be willing to bet, if you could keep tabs on him hes gonna be a solid vote for the B&C book!

    Carrying Handgun while hunting

    Spot on advice. I have had my XD for 5 years and it has more blood on it than I care to think about it. I love the gun!

    Springfield XD-40 Now with Pics

    Minue the wear spot from the holster, the gun looks brand new. Mine is in much worse shape (from use, not abuse)... Bump for a fantastic gun, I LOVE mine!

    22-250 brass

    Thats how it is. On all of my brass, there is about 1/16" or so that isnt touched by the die.
  21. firstcoueswas80

    What rifle to use ????

    You need something right in the middle, 270wsm, 7mag, 30-06... Sounds like an excuse to go buy another gun to me!

    December archery in AZ

    Who cares if they dont need the competition... Its an open unit, go hunt it! Time spent any where in the field is time spent better than not being in the field! Go hunt!

    Vortex scopes on Muzzies

    I think a ML would be a good place for a Vortex... I am not 100% sold on them, so wouldnt want to trust one of them on one of my big rifles, but would trust it against the push of a ML.. OTH, check out the TC Triumph... It is one sweet ML.
