    Ruger Predator in 6.5 CM, anyone have one?

    Shooter right out of the box. My 10yo daughter loves shooting it with the brake...and she let me borrow it for my coues hunt. 425yds and I saw the buck drop in the scope. Agree with the stock contacting the barrel on the one side, but I haven’t even done anything about it yet. Still shoots great. Magazine does have a cheap feel to it, and I like the trigger as is. Smoother than my old Remington 700.

    How bout them Devils!

    If U of A wants to make a Deep Run, they're going to have a tough go of it. They have to beat a surgeon Kentucky team and then a extremely tough Virginia team. I actually don't have them going that far due to having to play Virginia.yeah this will be tough...but I want to see the Cats play TN on the way to the final four. I won’t know who to cheer for, but not holding my breath. LoL
  7. Nothing wrong with questioning the intent of an apparent change on ammo, powder, etc...

    Time to start shooting the bow!!!

    Reminds me of the guy I saw during my 19a hunt. He ended up walking right up to a nice buck and tagging it.

    College Basketball in Arizona: Reality over Rhetoric

    Thanks TexasHunter

    Everything I’ve read has been replacing the whole fridge, but I’m not very familiar with rebuilt cooling units. My buddy had to replace his of similar age and he said it was worth it to him to get a more efficient newer unit.

    Thieves suck...guess I got lucky

    At some time since 1/30 when I last towed my trailer someone apparently broke in my truck. Stole my trailer keys from the console along with the display monitor from my trailer rearview camera from the glovebox (probably thought they were getting a GPS), roadside emergency kit, and cheap set of Harbor Freight tools under the back seat. Got lucky (I guess) that I had loaned my backup Vortex binos that usually live under the driver's seat to my buddy and they didn't notice the keys to the padlock on my Hi-Lift jack also in the console. Thieves really do suck. What a hassle to replace this stuff.

    Copy/Paste/Quote glitch

    Testing on my PC with IE 11...it works. Took me a while to find the switch mentioned (maybe I just wasn't understanding)...it's at the top of the Reply box when trying to reply to a topic or after hitting the Quote button. Thanks this has been really annoying to not be able to quote.

    Copy/Paste/Quote glitch

    I’ve noticed that on one of my PCs using IE...maybe 11 now that I read this but it’s been that way for a long time. I just switch to Chrome when it happens on that PC. I’ll try the work-around. Now if I can find a work-around for apostrophes getting wiped out using mobile view on my phone...

    Have had family stay there when visiting and had no complaints. Be aware the gem show is going on so prices will be higher due to that.

    First Coues!

    After several years hunting Coues and helping several others get their first deer, I finally connected with my first Coues. Not a great detailed story to tell, but its mine...hunted the same area during my daughters Oct hunt and have hunted there during archery too, so I knew what kind of bucks were in the area. Had only seen spikes and forkies and lots of does until earlier this week when several nicer bucks showed up. Had a couple of those bucks located but couldnt get close enough before they disappeared over the mountain. Saturday started like other days...made our way to the first glassing spot and seeing lots of groups of does, but no bucks. My buddy spots the buck first but cant see its head...as soon as I get eyes on it I see the antlers and know its a shooter for either of us. 470 yards, which is farther than my buddy wants to shoot. No good spots to get closer since the buck is low on the hill in front of us, so we decide Ill take the shot. Move down to a flatter spot at 435 and get set up...perfect quartering away shot...boom. I see the buck drop in the scope. 6.5 creedmoor I put together for my daughter was money! Glad she let me borrow it. Pretty easy gutless quartering and pack to the truck...left my buddy there to keep hunting and ran the quarters to processor. Back in time for lunch and delivered a burger and cold beer to my buddy. No more bucks in the afternoon, but tempted to shoot the coyote that found my carcass. Huge thanks to elkhunter1 for all of his help and advice and recommending this spot for my daughters hunt. It paid off for sure. Also thanks to everyone else who has kept encouraging me through years of tag soup. Big thanks to my buddy for giving me the shot too...payback I guess for when I helped him with his first deer a few years ago. Just got text pics of his buck he shot in the same spot today so we went 2 for 2 on this hunt! Updating with pics of the 2 bucks together. Maybe the 2 bucks I saw fighting on Wed...that would be cool.

    Winter Olympics

    Reflection of society in general. Whatever though. I enjoy the Olympics. Any event.

    Keying padlocks

    By the same logic could you also order more of the same key locks for a lock you already own? That might make sense. Back to the original question I've never heard of re-keying a padlock...not sure it's possible. I suppose you could call a locksmith and find out.
