    Shooting Rest + RH Bow Rest

    Yea, it was cheap to begin with and my rifle kicked through the rear strap pretty quick too. It is actually more solid now than when I bought it. But I prefer to shoot off a bench from bags as it is a more similar to a rest I can build in the field. This would still make a great shooting aid for somebody, especially someone who takes kids to the range.

    New Coues Mount

    I just got this back from a friend. He mounted it on a nice piece of mesquite. I think it looks great.

  7. At this weekend's Desert Archers 3D shoot it was announced that Pima County is now offering a $25 annual pass for unlimited use at their archery range in the Tucson Mts. This is a great deal for anyone who heads out there, and if you haven't you should, it is a beautiful range. The county doesn't have anything on their website about it yet, but you could try calling someone at the Desert Archers for more info. I think the guys at Bull Basin in Tucson hope to be selling them soon as well.

    Steelheads sold. Meatseekers still available...these things are piston driven and will open up on impact and leave a gaping hole...

SPF to GotCoues I also have 3 "Meatseeker" 100 grain mechanicals...2 have never been fired, one has. $10 for all 3.

    Ballistic Turrets

    I think that has to do with whether or not your reticle is in the first or second focal plane...if I am shooting past 200 yards my scope is always maxed at 12x so it isn't an issue for me.

    Ballistic Turrets

    I have a Swarovski AV 4-12x50 with ballistic turrets on my .300 WSM. The turret is the factory one, which uses color coded dots in place of the actual yardages on the Outdoorsmans turret. I love the scope. It has bright, clear optics and a nice defined duplex reticle. My rifle is zeroed at 200 and I used the Swaro website to enter my load data and get the zero for 300, 400 and 500 yards. Their data was close, but not exact when I went to the range to test it. After field adjustments I have the scope dialed in and feel confident out to about 550 yards. I also practiced at 250, 350, and 450 (which I basically just guessed at by moving halfway between the color coded zeros for 300, 400 and 500) and was pleased with the results. I have holdover (ballistic plex, BDC, etc) reticles on a few other rifles and believe the turret system is superior for accuracy at long range. I'm sure the Outdoorsmans reticle is excellent as well, and probably more precise than the "halfway" system I used at the range for those 250, 35, etc. shots...the only limitation that I see with their turret is that my understanding is that it is set-up for only one load...so just make sure you have found the bullet that shoots in your gun before you get the turret set up.

    Lasik Surgery

    Another vote for Barnett Delaney Perkins. I had it done just over 4 years ago at their Camelback location. Not a cheap procedure...but money well spent and I would do it again.
  13. Probably won't be in the PHX area until the end of Feb. for the Cactus Classic. Thanks though.
  14. I got a set of Redding dies for my .300 WSM and don't need my RCBS set anymore. Anybody have a set of .38/357 dies laying around they would like to trade? Let me know. Thanks.

    Opening Day Success

    This morning I took this boar. With the hard freeze last night I slept in a little and got to the field around 8 am. I located a herd about 5 minutes after setting up my tripod. They were 1,000 yards off feeding right next to two muley does. After making sure no bucks were hanging around I closed the gap with a perfect wind right in my face and shot my pig inside of 20 yards. I hit him broadside through the lungs and had total pass through with a Hoyt AM 35 and a 100 grain Muzzy 4 blade. The pig went about 15 yards and piled up. The does were less than 30 yards away and didn't spook until after I walked up on the dead pig. It's nice when every thing comes together for a change. Good luck to everyone else who gets out this weekend.
