I have the J107 as well... I have loaded ALL of my hunting gear needed for the day, as well as 3/4 of a deer (more than once) and hiked the couple miles out and it works like a charm! Gino, have you ever wore that 4500? When I was looking at packs, I tried that one on and I found it was EXTREMLY top heavy and did not like it at all! Did you ever feel this way? It is a very large pack that, if loaded properly would be nice for a pack in hunt as long as the "top heaviness" went away.

I have never ad a external frame, but several internal and they all have been very comfortable and easy on the shoulders.

for the most part, the short mags do what a long mag does, in a shorter gun. The barrel can be 2 inches shorter, and the action 1/2" or so shorter. the 270wsm beats the regular 270 by 200-300 or so, and nearly matches the 270 wby. I love my .270 wsm!

For the most part in the field i use the brush part of the lens pen to knock off the bigger dust particals, then use the microfiber rag from SW.

Conference on lead coming up
firstcoueswas80 replied to Outdoor Writer's topic in Political Discussions related to hunting
How long have we been eating animals that we have harvested with our firearms containing lead? And look at us, we have all turned out alright (well, minus cooze'n'sheep and coozefan) I dont get it. I honestly dont. BUT, I know its coming sooner than we think, so I will be working up loads for my rifles with the Nosler E tip or the TSX. On a side note, how do officers hope to enforce this? I have seen ONE officer EVER while out hunting and that was this past August while chasing pigs with my bow. -

What I have found works well... If you can support your right elbow (or whatever arm is connected to the trigger finger) it makes it easier to stay steady. I was shooting with Larry, Scoutm out to 510 and I was able to bust the rock consistently with my elbow supported by my ammo box.

What rifle are you taking on your elk hunt?
firstcoueswas80 replied to Stray Horse's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Whats an elk hunt -
For me (6'3) the 9-13" isnt tall enough to see over anything when laying down, and not anywhere near tall enough to shoot sitting up so thats why I prefer the larger one. If I need to shoot sitting, I like to shoot with my backpack as my rear support.
-
Yep. Harris. I have the ( I believe it is) 13"-25" all though 13 inches can be a little high for shooting laying down, and 25" is a little short for sitting, it works the best for me from what I have found. Also, invest in the swivel model.

Lets See your Loading Bench
firstcoueswas80 replied to GameHauler's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing
Why you gotta rip on my my threads man? I like my butler, he's very welcoming. Especially when I have guests over who don't know about him. What is the rifle on top of it? -
Thats easy. Remington model 721 in .270 Killed my lion with it. Dad killed his first elk and deer with it. Late grandfather killed everything with it! Moose, Caribou, Black bear, Grizz, muleys, whitetail turkey.. you name it and grandpa killed it. It is VERY accaurate, especially for being 50+ years old. Im talking 1/2" every time! I love that gun and I would be a bum walking the streets with my Duovids and that rifle strapped to my back. It is old and beat up but man do I love that gun and does it shoot! AzpackNhorns and RedRabbit have both seen it in action and they can attest to the accauracy of that old SOB!

I love your screen name, as well as your signature! Nice buck, how about some field photos?

Lark, Don is a straight up guy. I met him once and we both showed up with several guns, and left with several guns... if ya catch the drift!
-
You like that VTR? Im not a huge fan of it! The one we had at SW, the top line in the triangle of the barrel is crooked!
-
Mike, wipe off your nose... its got a lil brown on it! Give me a set of "unbrakeable" arrows, Ill get them broken!

He would know, hes the one who gave them to me!

Hamas Endorses Obama

WOW... That is about as racist as they get... J- Where in there does he hint at being a racist? All he says is that weather or not he is a Muslim ( which by the way, his father and step father are not only muslim, but muslim radicalists)? All he says is that he isnt getting his vote.
