NEW RIFLE PURCHASE FOR NOV HUNT ADVIDE
firstcoueswas80 replied to gnoto's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
i would go with the 300 MAG or the 30-06, i shoot 165 grain bullets out of my 30-06 that equal the 180's out of a 300 mag. i would never take a 300 savage hunting for anything besides coyotrs, my grandfather has to of them insavage 99 and i have read ballastics and they are not impressive at all. -

Does anyone in here know the name Terry or Michelle Ragsdale?? they both were world champion archers and worked at the PSE in Tucson, i grew up with their son and daughter and when my dad and i were looking for a compound for me, we went to Terry and he set me up with a PSE nova, nothing wrong with that bow, for the time it was it was a good bow, no cams or anything so it is ouf of date now and heck, i probabaly havent shot it in 2-3 years!!! i did carry it on a Javelina hunt, but once i saw how many illegals there was in the area, i realzed that if i was gonna get a shot at a pig, i was gonna use my rifle and make it count!! we ended up not seeing a single pig that hunt!!! it sucked, did see a group of 87 illegals( we counted) and 1 90+ coues buck

let me tell you guys a little bit about this area, this is where i shot my small buck last year. on that first ridge that can be seen, i glassed up about a 70-75 inch buck during the december hunt that had his nose to the ground chasing a few does. when i glassed up the first deer of the day on the mountian, my heart started to race and i started to get a little shakey. i guess the adrenaline was flowing!!! imagine how im going to feel this november when i finally glass up a buck and i have a tag in my pocket and a rifle on my shoulder!!!

firstcoueswas80 replied to creed_az_88's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
back in the day(when dirt was being created), one of my dads buddies shot a deer and didnt go up to it and poke it, he just went up to it and started to pick up the rack, the deer then got up and started trying to fight him so the guy tried to break his neck! once he got his arse kicked, he ended up just shooting the thing agian. -
Anyone hunting with new firearms this season?
firstcoueswas80 replied to Red Rabbit's topic in Rifle hunting for Coues Deer
thays weird thats the same scope that i have on my rifle, do you have the stainless? my dad and i will probably be hunting near tank, it is a really big area and that is where i shot my first deer. every time that we go there we see some bucks so i think that were going to spend (depending obviously) about 5 days hunting there. are other spot is a place called, thats where i shot my deer last year. Those 7mm ultra mags are sweet guns! my dad has the RMEF edition 700 bdl.they have bery impressive ballastics, but the ammo is expensive. I drive a 1988 ford f-150, white with a blue camper shell, as i stated earlier, there will be two 130" bucks hangin in a tree, stop on by and say hello, theres always cold beer. -

i have a old 721 in 270 also. it has been in the safe for a while, this year it is wearing a new scope and will get to be the back up gun, this gun has some ral character to it, has a nice scratch from when my grandpa had in on a moose hunt in i dont remember where but he had it right next to his leg and a bear came in camp and scared the horses. the horses hoof laid about a 6-7" cut in the stock instead of my grandpas leg, this gun is my favorite gun that we own, and is irrplacable to my father and i. -

Need advice on handguns
firstcoueswas80 replied to TREESTANDMAN's topic in Handgun Hunting for Coues Deer
I dont know if what im going to tell you is what your looking for, but i bought a Springfield arms xd-40 from gunbroker.com for $400(retail is 499) and I LOVE THIS GUN!!!!! i got the od green color, and it has some sort of grip on it with finger grooves and it fits mn hand perfect! i have shot about 600 round sthrough it and the only time it jammed was on the 300th shot of the day with no cleaning during the shoting time. it is very very accurate and fits my hand perfect. the thing that is awesome of the gun is that springfield arms also make a sub compact model, and the service model and the sub compact model both use the same magizines. the gun comes in a hard carrying case with 2 magazines. i love mine and next to my couse killer, and the 30-30 i inherited when my grandfather passed(sentimental value) it is my favorite guin and, for a 19 year old i have quite a few. they come in .9mm, .10 mm, .40 S&W, .357 sig i have the .40 and boxes of 100 can be bought at wally world for about 20$ Casey -
