I wonder if Remington's upcoming 700 Alpha 1 will be chambered in the 7mm PRC. May not know until October. https://internationalsportsman.com/remington-alpha-1-new-model-700-from-remington/

Lance posted a booner from the pines on his TLOHunts IG page and Timberland Outfitters facebook page.

Nosler bullets seem to be like hen's teeth.

I have been using the Outdoor Edge 3.5 Razor on my last two cow elk. One blade lasts the entire elk doing the gutless method. https://www.sportsmans.com/hunting-gear-supplies/knives-tools/knives/outdoor-edge-35-razorlite-edc-35-inch-folding-knife-orange/p/1550902

Maybe Doug at CameraLand has an open box or demo. Worth a call.

A recent phototrip with a couple of friends from Colorado had us in remote areas in northern Arizona. The first evening had us overlooking a beautiful section of the Painted Desert with its colored Chinle formation. The next evening was spent in a pinnacle-filled filled valley surrounded by walls of Moenave sandstone. The colors and striations of the sandstone are beautiful. A gallery of the images from the trip may be viewed on my website. https://www.plateaulightphotography.com/New-Work/Navajo-High-Desert/ There were a pair of feral llamas that the Navajos had used to protect their sheep from coyotes. Wonderful colors and markings in the sandstone.

Clover once again procured all the hunting permits this year for quail and grouse, as her gun bearer was unlucky in the draws for elk, deer, sheep, turkey. I hope the monsoon rains are good this summer to enable some decent Mearns hatches and grass growth. It was a dry spring here in NoAZ, so I doubt the Gambels around Sedona will be good.
-
Even after the leftover draw, seems there were Kaibab turkey tags to purchase at the regional offices in previous years. I will be up there for grouse though come September.
-
Interesting that there are no leftover fall turkey tags on the Kaibab.

Glad you got it out easily. Check your headspace so that you are only setting the shoulder back about 0.002" when resizing -
He may have been posting on 24Hr too as tbt250602.. One post said he was an ffl in Strasburg CO. Only posted for one day https://www.24hourcampfire.com/ubbthreads/ubbthreads.php/ubb/userposts/id/80520

Well, it's official. Clover drew the Governor's Quail tag and I drew squat.

With the summer rains and thunderstorms starting, I went up to the Grand Canyon for a couple of days to photograph some lightning and elk. The lightning was often evasive to me, mostly off in the distance or hidden behind the clouds. One six point bull did oblige as it munched on the oak leaves.

I see recent FB posts with plenty of new gambel chicks, but have to wonder if those are around the houses and golf courses. Have your sighting been out in the desert? -
I was watching a pot of water yesterday. It took forever to come to boil 😉

most memorable I've had in Flagstaff has been at Proper Meats where Freddy's Grand Canyon Cafe used to be. Diablo Burger has a good rep, but, although good, I found it did not live up to the hype.

those did not last long

I recently picked up a pair of new 10x42's so am looking for a bino chest pack. I am considering the Marsupial non-magnetic full closure pack. Are there any better options to consider?

What in particular did you like about the Kuiu? What 3 others did you try and why not like?
-
I would say to put up multiple pics of the rifle with target groups and price, and quit beating around the bush. Great coues and antelope cartridge.

I found a cap better than the ASU slogan. 😁

If the elk have been dropping their calves the past two weeks, that would indicate that the breeding/peak of the rut was around October 1. http://www.cervidsolutions.com/wp-content/uploads/2020/06/ELK-Gestation-Table.pdf
