    I quit

    1 week hunting+ 3 missed shots + (one on the coolest buck ever) 1 speeding ticket + coming home with a rash = 3rd year in a row of nothing but blown opportunities Nuff said I need to find a new hobby, archery isnt working maybe I could take up crochet. Congrats to all the awesome bucks I've seen on here today Good work

    New to Bow hunting

    HaHa i do the exact opposite of what he says aside from the sleeping and finding bucks has never been a problem for me. Just goes to show not necessarily a wrong way to do it. GO off your experience and the area your hunting

    Remington Screwing Me

    I only get the 200 coupon if the gun is returned.... and all I can buy with that is their bottom of the line 22lr. Which still will cost me about $20- 50 depending on where I buy. AZLance No offense but I dont see how 200 is better than nothing... $280 w/o tax originally so roughly 300 bucks 6yrs ago not inlcudung the cabelas rimfire scope thats on it (but hey I'm fair thats reusable). Now they want the gun back and only want to pay 200 for it.... So someone is out 100 bucks and it isnt remington. Now i can take my 200 coupon and add on roughly 150 more out of my own pocket again to get a worthwhile gun. (Remington doesn't make any 17 rimfires anymore so scopes worthless without buying another one from another manufacturer... )

    Remington Screwing Me

    I believe your right searching the web I find that the issue stems from the fact that the case is not capable of withstanding the pressures when fired from a semi-auto. The pressures on the case are higher due to not being locked into the chamber. When the bolt blows back if the pressures arent completely vented out the muzzle the case has the potential to explode. Which is why they still make bolt action rifles we arent fast enough to open the bolt before the pressures have all dissipated out the muzzle. I want to keep the gun and just keep using it but. In searching for others with the same problem have found lots of "stories."

    Matthew or Hoyt

    NEITHER shoot whichever brand you like the best!!!! For me thats pse... ive owned 12 different mathews bow models (q2 sb dren monsters sbxt dxt outback legacy etc...) and my 08 x-force hf i have liked the most. never owned a hoyt 2 words ugly and heavy. Although currently that appears to have switched with mathews. Also might want to go used. Only ever bow i bought new was a bowtech. People will say not to but i have bought more than 35 bows used without any sort of problems minus normal wear and tear. Shoot everyone I buy. Just this year I have bought 3500 in used bows sold em all though so any questions on any used bow ask and can let you know what i thought.

  11. I've used this for reference for about 5 years. I'm sure many have seen it but would like to post it for those who haven't. It is older but has a lot of good and still relevant information in it. http://www.eastonarc...uning_guide.pdf This is where I picked up bare-shaft tuning and it works good for me as I don't have a paper tuner.

    Red dodge

    I've seen a Red dodge with a messed up tailgate next to my house a few times. Coincidently Im sure but the first time I saw it was the day my house was broken into.

    What broadhead do you use?

    Wow lots of fixed blades. If I go fixed blades MONTEC all the way But nothing flys like my T3s I used to love the second generation Tekans too. But moved to the T3's Not a fan one bit of the Rages. Cant get myself to drink and Like their Kool-aid.... Its not that Im a fan of G5 or their products I feel the montecs are probably equal to the the Hellraisers and similars but I do feel that their mechanicals are SOLID which when I hold rages I think if I drop one it might break.

    Kimber - 45 ACP

    Hate to high jack this thread but I have never heard of a 12+1 Kimber in 45. I just spent 30 minutes searching the internet for one too. Can anyone enlighten me on this one??? I believe the one pictured is the Kimber BP 10 which is a 10+1 if that helps anyone looking to buy

    Kimber - 45 ACP

    7/8 If there was a handgun with a 12+1 capacity 45 they would be a lot more popular.
