Looking at getting a hand gun
firstcoueswas80 replied to IHunt2live's topic in Handgun Hunting for Coues Deer
right on! the 686 is one heck of a fine hand gun. I had the 6" barrel, but traded it as it sat at home most of the time because my XD-40 gets most of the field time as it is accurate, and packes 11 rounds of .40 s& w. look at the xd line up, either the 4" (service) in 40 or 45. you wont be let down! -

Amanda, If it came in canvas instead of vinyl, with the straps to tighten it down so it has some back support Id buy one! -
Unfourtanetly, I never used a processor in Flag. I have only taken my stuff to WGP here in Tucson and have been nothing but pleased with them! When azpacknhorns killed his buck, we halued huevos to get it back to camp. as soon as we got it back to camp the thing was skinned. when we got back to my house the next am, we spent probably an hour rinsing it out and cutting wasted meat away. Now, this was a big heavy bodied buck and we took EXTREM care of it. When I picked it up to take the meat back to him, I'd be willing to bet there was 50+ lbs of meat if not more! Take in good meat, recieve it ALL back in good condition!

Mr. Sharpie!!
firstcoueswas80 replied to Kilimanjaro's topic in Small Game, Upland Bird, and Waterfowl Hunting
Well scott, gotta say it, you missed probably the best conditions of mearns that I have been on! Doug and I didnt see ANY birds in the am, but i think we got into about 6 coveys in the evening. I missed 2 birds that were BEGGING me to shoot them, but I did manage to get a double on two males. One was a mature, the other a juvey. Doug was hoggin all the birds, and his Weatherby was on fire. He ended up with 6 birds in 7 or 8 shots! It was COLD and wet! the mutts would have loved it! -

Nicely done! id put him in the high 70's and low 80's range as well!

Coues Rifle: READY!!!
firstcoueswas80 replied to firstcoueswas80's topic in Coues Deer Hunting in Arizona
i really wouldnt call that a group you should ashoot at least 4 shots but not bad good luck on your hunt With raw materials and metal at the price they are, 2 shots will work for me, especially when they are that close at that distance off of a backpack/bipod combo! -

I have the Jim White adapter for my Leicas as it is much better than the one Leica provides. Like has been said, the head can fall out. My Leicas have fallen out but thank god they fell into my lap, not on the rocks I was sitting on! ( And of course this is the first time I EVER took them out into the field!)

Dang Brian, you are old! Guess im gonna have to wait up for you this year in the hills -
Your right bout the books being conservative.. I believe my 270WSM is shooting 1-2 grains above listed max with nothing more than the regular WSM pressure signs. and I get awesome accuracy and velocity!
