    What would you do?

    Thanks RR, I called G&F and picked up a 2006 BP analysis(2007 won't be out for a while longer). tjhunt-. Years 1-2 were apps for cow tags, 3-6 for rifle/archery bull 7-10 premium apps. Looking through the BP book it looks like what RR said is true. with 11 BP I could draw pretty much any archery hunt. Or I could continue to hold out for a rut hunt where there are only 25 hunters/unit. I have drawn a deer tag every year(knock on wood) and been on several elk hunts in the meantime. I'm not a purist trophy hunter (several spike deer can attest to that), but I'm not burning 11BP on a cow and I'm not so sure about a hunt with 200 archers either.

    Coues in unit 20C

    Some of those areas you guys mentioned look like premium habitat. I'm always wondering why no coues??
  3. The recoil is substantially reduced. Word of advice....earplugs..... mine are still ringing from 6 years ago. I have a 6.5x20 vx3 on mine and the accuracy is as advertised

    Got my 06 Mount Back.

    Beautiful buck! Nice tall rack.... My 100" has no brow tines to speak of either and I always think what if???
  5. Kevin these are the only ones listed on my card from the factory .Is yours the Classic stainless? If so, what did you pick it up for? I've been considering selling mine and they aren't making any more. Anyhow the sweet spots are....150gr bullet Sporter barrel 2.2.....featherweight barrel 2.3......165 gr bullet Sporter 6.4 .........featherweight 6.4 These will be different if you have the Laredo model... shoot straight

    Muzzeloader Question

    I have a Ruger77/50 RSO which is the straight English style walnut stock. I've got a Leupold M-8 fixed 3x scope on it. I haven't worked up an elk load yet, but for deer I use 100 gr Pyrodex pellets and Barnes 245gr TMZ Spitfires. Works good for me, 1.5" groups at 130yds. It uses #11 caps instead of 209, although I have a musket cap nipple for it that I haven't tried. It has never failed to ignite the powder as long as the cap goes off. I have failed to get the cap seated firmly enough and that is operator error. I really enjoy the smokepole though. Have fun!!

    Ruger M77 30-06

    I've got a winchester model 94 Canadian Centennial 30/30 carbine that I got at an estate sale. I haven't shot it and it doesn't look like its been shot much or at all. No box though. I'm regretting typing this already, as you know they aren't making anymore. In fact never mind

    Sad

    Under direction from God?? Now I'm freaked out.....evidently I missed something in my studies of American History. I am a teacher with a concealed permit. I'm not allowed to have my weapon on me or in my car on school premises. I've been worried about something like this since the Chechnyan(sp) rebels blew up that school in Russia. Soon I won't have worry though when we all surrender our guns. All the Virginia lawmakers that voted against the bill to allow the concealed permit holders to carry on campus should be held accountable.
  16. we figure we missed a chance to help by just an hour or two. Ever find anything like this??

    Actually this was a button buck that looked healthy otherwise. AG that was a great story..... I lied we have found something like that before. this was in Ash Fork, not Africa. No its not a condor
