I have a Remington 700 Ultimate I would let go. It has a radial brake installed by Todd Smith @ SouthernExpress in Mesa, as well as the Arrowhead breech plug conversion, which uses large magnum rifle primers for ignition. Best grouping I have had on a fouled barrel was 2.5" at 300 yards using BH209 and 320gr Fury bullets (with 10-ish minutes between shots to not warm it up). The drop is significant compared to a rifle, but I have taken a few eastern whitetails with it at 400+ yards (power lines and harvested fields). Have plenty of primer modules, bullets, and relevant accessories I can throw in with it too. Jerry

Looking for a reputable place to get a slide/box repaired on a small TT. 2016 FR R-Pod, RP-179. Slide no longer goes in/out, think the slide box may no longer be square. Current RV mechanic does great work, but it is outside his scope of work. Preference for someone in Tucson area, but metro PHX would work too. TIA.

I am, though I've been doing a ton of personal travel this year.

Union pipefitter here. Went through my apprenticeship here in Phoenix (finished in 4 years instead of the normal 5). Made a decent living during my apprenticeship, did not have any student loans, was able to use my GI bill, and was able to grow both my pension and 401k the entire time. Current wage rates (which are publicly available) are at $48.40/hr. (on the check) for a journeymen, which is right at $100k/yr working 40's, plus all the benefits that get paid for on your behalf and do not come out of your paycheck. Most big jobs these days run on 5x10's, some on 6x10's, which are great when starting out, but can easily be passed on once you have been in a while. Oh, and we don't get PTO, which means there is nothing to be denied, we just have to save for when we do not work, but can take off as much time as we want, whenever we want. Most years that I work 5x10's, I average around 9 weeks off, split between vacations, hunts, fishing trips, and traveling internationally. It is a very comfortable lifestyle.

Put in for the tag you want for yout first choice. Drew an early archery unit 9 bull tag my first ever draw. Honestly, there are several hunts each year that offer both trophy and opportunity, just no one talks about them.

Late rifle, obviously. Then I have less competition for the early archery hunts!!! I had 3 early archery tags last decade, and after being on those hunts, I'll never burn points for a non-rut hunt here in AZ.

Time for a 2023 thread. Who has trips booked already and who is looking for folks to charter with?

Will be in Phoenix and Tucson for the holiday weekend. Let me know by the morning if you want something and I'll bring it with.

Sure do.

Sorry, just saw this. I live in Virginia currently. I'll be back in AZ (Phoenix and Tucson) over thanksgiving weekend though.

I do

Move back to AZ complete, all remaining items pulled.

For now, yes

If that one doesn't come through, let me know, I am open to selling mine.

But what would they do with the other half of the space??? Good looking smoker, GLWS
