I'm having the same problem, can't seem to find what hunt #1114 is. Thats not funny!!! -
Youve already killed a sheep! No sympathy for you, sir!

after eating all the stuff(especially the guacamole dip!) Chef made at the Tucson get together I would definatly try any recipe he had. Again, Wade hit it on the head! Chef, your Salsa Bandera was fantastic (Pico de Gallo)

yeah, they changed that a while back TJ.if you look it up in the regs it says 1 per calender year now with the 1 exception being the big game raffle and auction tags. Yep. Wade is spot on. -
New coues gun
firstcoueswas80 replied to firstcoueswas80's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Yeah, hand loads all the way. Gun has only seen 3 shots of factory ammo, and that was by the smith to make sure it would safely go bang! -
Absolutely. Buck like that gets it from me. I love how unique he is. I would hang him from my wall with pride!

San Carlos Javelina Hunt 2008
firstcoueswas80 replied to JLG's topic in Coues Deer Hunting in Arizona
Very good adventure. I hate getting stuck, especially in weather like that! Nice to hear the "customer service" of the ranger et al. -
I have never looked through the 15x Vortex, but I have looked through their "top of the line" binos. After reading all the hype, I was extremly disapointed in them. I though a 8x set would have been nice for archery hunting, but after looking through them I decided they werent worth it.
-
In my mind, I see a extremly old buck dying with a heavy, heavy 2x2 w/ eyeguards. Semi tall, semi wide, but with heavy horns and massive bases with a lot of stickers right around the burr. I would LOVE to have the exact deer I just described hanging on my wall!

Take Ted Bundy for example... College educated, law student... yet one of the most prolific murderes this country has ever known!
-
Other people freak me out. I always have the means with me to stop a moderate threat (handgun, or rifle, or both!) But it doesnt put my heart to 100% rest at all. I always keep my eyes peeled for the unknown.

Negative on both accounts. the hunt swap is pretty much Person A. takes person B on a quail hunt... Person B takes person A on a rabbit hunt. -
New coues gun
firstcoueswas80 replied to firstcoueswas80's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Decided that since tha Shilen barrels are hand lapped, that they come broken in. I did run dry patches/patches with Hoppes through it every 5-6 shots or so to soak up the unburnt powder. Even at the end of the day, when I took the nylon brush and Sweets 7.62, I was surprised at how small amount of copper fouling there was in the barrel from the TSX's. Larry, I am STILL pulling blue patches out of the WSM. (Finally took a nylon brush to it as well.) -
New coues gun
firstcoueswas80 replied to firstcoueswas80's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Well, Larry and I just got back from the range... The goatsucker showed potential, but nothing stellar today. All groups hovered around 1.5 inches today. I had two groups where 2 were touching, and I pulled the 3rd shot! ... I am gonna mess with the lenghts and go back out and shoot tomorrow... On the other hand, my 270 wsm printed 3 touching, and the javelina and turkeys were in trouble out to 550!... Hard to think about that as a BACKUP gun! -
Have you felt the trigger on the Triumph? It is extremly nice! Also, it has the advanced coating called "Weathershield", is lighter and it fits me like a glove. I sold quite a few of them when I worked at Sportsmans Warehouse.
-
I am a big fan of the Triumph!

You gave her aluminum foil? Man, what a good trade! You can check out my 4.5-14x44 w/the turrets on Saturday and then tell us what ya think...
-
Larry and I usually agree on scope choices... Im gonna take a guess that he will put a 4.5-14x Zeiss Conquest on top of it.. Could be wrong though!
