CouesPursuit

Yup. I had to open several boxes of reloads and they went through every one. They also have 200 closed. Rain, please rain.

Best of luck to you and your daughter, OP. I've always read how well those rifles shoot and a good friend has proven it on the range the last few outings.

Good luck, Adam! Looking forward to the journey.

Looks like a big rifle, I like it!

Same as I've always done. Maybe the OP just wants to hire a great installer from a great forum who will do an honorable job.

Instead of mind your own business like a man to a good standing member here, noted.

As a pool repair and maintenance business owner of 13 years, there is no doubt in truth to what has been said, but OP never said how much he was willing to pay for the experienced labor, what he drives, or how he is getting his material and why he is choosing his route. Some on this forum sure make a lot of assumptions.

Not sure how I missed this originally but I was excited to see it come up in a search today. Your write up did not disappoint! Congratulations on a great ram!

Considering how and why those "ponds" are maintained and were built in the first place, that's not much different than asking hunters what they do for wildlife other than kill.

I definitely agree but the San Juans is at (or close to) the farthest southern extent of their range. Appears to be a good sized critter who isn't too slender, and tail is bushy and darker than the rest of the body.

Only thing in the regs states "Hunters cannot use lighted sight pins or other artificial light sources to extend legal shooting hours." https://s3-us-west-2.amazonaws.com/azgfd-portal-wordpress-pantheon/wp-content/uploads/archive/2019-20-Arizona-Hunting-Reguations_WEB_190508.pdf Honestly, not trying to be a wise guy, but I thought "Yes" and the overwhelming support in that thread indicated legality, not to mention there are few informative posts in there. Hope you bury a lighted nock into something this year!

Yes.

Update - Using the same components with Hornady 175gr ELD-X instead of the 160 AB, working up from 61.5gr, I'm shooting just under 1 MOA with 66.5gr of H1000 @ 3050 FPS (quite fast for the 175gr out of a 7mm RM). Groups opened up at 67.0-67.5gr and velocity didn't increase so I stopped, but there weren't crazy pressure signs like before either. I'm going to call it good with this load until I re-barrel in the next few years and chalk it up to my rifle not liking the 160 ABs. I really appreciate the participation in this thread as I learned a ton.

I'm seeking advice on pressure signs at the very beginning of 2 different ladder tests shooting 160gr Accubonds in my factory Savage 7mm Rem Mag. Here are 2 factory loads shot before and after the ladders. Ladder RL23- Starting at 61gr, published MAX is 65.1 for a 160 BTSP. Both 61 and 61.5 had pressure signs of sticky bolt, ejector marks, and cratered primers. Needless to say, I stopped. Velocity was 2960 FPS, 3001 is published for MAX. Ladder H1000- The only published data I could find for 160gr was for the Partition at 63 MIN and 66 MAX. Tons of guys out there claim to be loading 70+gr of H1000 for the 160AB as the AB and Partition have vast differences in pressure tolerances. I started with 64 grains and both 64 amd 64.5gr had the same pressure signs. Velocities were 3002 amd 3022. Frustrated and concerned, I quit there. Answers to a few anticipated questions and additional info: These are loaded 0.01" off the lands. I am neck sizing only and this is twice-three times fired brass. I do not anneal. The brass is properly trimmed and lightly chamfered. All lube has been removed after sizing via tumbling, and I'm not lubing case necks or bullets prior to seating. The rifle was recently cleaned, the chamber dried, and the barrel fouled. In my previous, successful loads with this rifle, I used WLRM primers. "New" to my method and components is using Fed 215m primers and I changed to a 160gr Nosler Accubond. At this point I plan on pulling the bullets and full length resizing and examining all my brass. Thick skin on and ready if anyone can help straighten out my ways, thanks.

Bashas was the first and most prominent store in my AZ home town. Good for them for innovating.

Good deal today, bumping this thread back to the top. Benelli Montefeltro, 26" 12 gauge, $699 from $1,299. https://shopdunns.com/product/benelli-montefeltro-hunters-package/

Not current but may be cool to see. Here is my '16 Coues as he progressed through July. And on opening day.

Interested in the Large. Location?

Duplicate post.

By a shop, yes, but not if you are doing your own work. Timing belt and pump varied greatly if you go OEM. Lower ball joints are extremely easy just a weak spot on these vehicles that can leave you stranded if you take them offroad.

It will need the timing belt and water pump done if it hasn't and some other minor things have been replaced post 200k. Also, if you did buy one, first thing I would do is swap out the lower ball joints.

I have had an '02 Tundra since 60k that has been put through just about everything, it has 280k today and it runs sound. We just bought my wife a one-owner '03 Sequoia at 103k to do the same, minus the excessive hunting road hours. There is a reason it took us 20 months to find one, and you can't drive down the road without seeing a few. Great, great vehicles IMO. Excellent posts by MD33. Good luck!
