    Lizard identification

    It seems like every time I hike Camelback, someone is warning someone else about the Gila monster they just saw. It always turns out to be a Chuckwalla.

    Jim Beam sold to the Japanese

    Let's not forget the worst part of all this. Makers Mark was included in the sale since it was owned by the Jim Beam parent company.

    kifaru packs

    I have the same Stone Glacier as well, which I used on a 10 Dall Sheep hunt and a elk hunt, and it worked perfectly.

    new 15 x 56 slc HD

    I looked thru the same ones last week and I felt that they were a lot brighter.
  11. I believe this is for residents only? It's good for both, resident and nonresident.
  12. You should of had him pick up an apprentice license... Its free and good for two consecutive days for small game.
  13. Is it that mountains are to rough and steep to climb or does he have physical limitations? Does he have the ability to take a longer range shot?
  14. Alaska requires that all nonresidents use a guide while hunting brown/ Grizzly bear, Dall Sheep, and Mountain Goat. Your best bet is to start researching guides and then let them direct you through the regulations.

    Recovered bullets

    Did the ttsx expand more than the regular tsx? What is the difference in the overall outside diameter of the expanded portion of the bullets?

    stainless ?

    Matte... I've yet to see a silver that looks good on a brushed or blasted stainless finish, plus you will have a larger variety of scopes to choose from.

    Kenetrek Boots Whats youre opinion...

    +1 The Mountain Extremes that I purchased last year are the best boots I've worn. They have already outlasted my last two pairs of Danners.

    Duck id

    I'm pretty sure it is a ring-neck... The way I'm seeing it there is a lite ring around the eye and another faded ring around the bill. Also the wing and body are shaped and colored like a hen ringer. The white patch behind the beak is a little larger or brighter than normal. What type of water was he shot off of?

    AR 500 Steel

    There is a place off of ironwood south of baseline that does a lot of armor work that will sell you a sheet cut to your specifications for cheap. Can't remember the name right now, but they are directly across the street from A1 steel. It was pretty cheap too.

    G7 BR2 Rangefinder Review

    I wish they all would. I don't mind doing the calculations and I still have to factor in spin drift anyways so I double check these reading on my Applied Ballistics app which in turn always comes back to the same reading as the rangefinder. If I had to make a quick shot I know I can with confidence. I really just wish the rangefinder manufactures would make all rangefinders with the incline decline feature which they do but do away with a degrees and give us straight up range. If Nikon and True Pulse can do it in their rangefinders everyone should be able too. Why make it harder and more difficult than it really is. How exactly do you factor in the wind... Do you input a wind speed and then and direction (value) or do your best guess on the amount of wind effecting the bullet. This is not a big issue, but does the unit take into account coriolis effect... With my 300 RUM this can effect the flight up to 1/2 MOA (7") at 1,400 yards with a east or west shot. With regards to the angle read out, the only way that they can do it accurately is if they give you the effective range run thru an accurate ballistic program such as the G7...Its not just the horizontal distance that effects where the bullet impacts, but also the time of flight or the overall resistance that the bullet receives during the flight. Thanks for the review.
