How old is that picture Tim? Seems like I've seen it before.

I remember when you couldn't give a Norinco SKS away. Yup I'm old.

So how many preference points does he have? 3? So you are looking for children who have 5+ to put in on your application to increase his odds? Has he hunted before? If not, maybe put him in for an easier draw so he can just enjoy the hunt experience.

Thanks for the heads up Casey.

Very Cool indeed. Congratulations to you and all those who participated in making it a successful hunt.

Cool. Arizona?

I'll take it. PM inbound.

Sound Advice.

I think I got about $400 for a late 50's Tula a few years ago. Probably shot twice in the 30 years I had it. Never saw the allure.

BO, Was that the one for the baby gender reveal?

Just look on Gun Broker.

Is her chest bigger than 26"? That's the size of the vest.

How much scouting can the two of you do and is it a Cow or Bull Tag?

They do now. It's never been a big secret and have been available on the market since Hector was a Pup.

Usually more gun dependent than the bullet in my experience but I have has bullets of the same weight be 3" off at 50 yards.

That's the best freshwater tasting fish as far as I'm concerned.

Obviously not a gun owner of any time. Something you would expect of a teenager.

Should be a great concert.

I had some that were roosted a little more than 15' up in a dead tree in South Oklahoma. There were taller trees around.

Sounds like my hunt last year in 1. It was quiet the whole time. I was in OK a few years ago and had one come in hot from about 30 yards at about 3:30 in the afternoon when my buddy did a couple of hen calls. He gobbled right back and we barely had time to set up. Back in 2016 I was sitting on a friends porch trying to get out out the wind in Sonora and had a Tom cruising past the house about 75 yards away in the late afternoon headed to roost gobbling his head off. I'm just conditioned to getting into them at first light.

I also have them on a 243, 30-06 and 7 Mag and have never had a problem. I also use blue loctite, torque them to about 15"lbs and let them sit for a day before shooting them. The rings on the Tikka 06 have been on there for close to 20 years.

Very Nice Speck you got there. Great tasting too. Topwater?

What are you basing your pricing on for a scope that is almost 60 years old?

I have bought a few knives for friends from Bucks Custom Shop over the last couple of years mostly as gifts. Now I order the S30V blades and realize these are mass produced and they are shaving sharp, but. Being an anal Sum'Bitch with an engineering background one thing that bugs me is one side of the blade has a different angle than the other maybe ground 10 thousands higher but both edges have quite a bit of what I call "chatter". Can I use a ceramic rod to smooth it down? I'm probably the only guy who can take a reasonably sharp know make it duller attempting to sharpen it. Maybe a leather strop or a buffing wheel should be what is needed to clean it up. If anyone knows someone in the East Valley who has experience I would appreciate it. I'm not looking for a professional service where I have to drop it off. I just want those ridges gone on a 110.
