ichiban43

Hey thanks for the Info! I primarily hunt the west side, but will check out the east side East or west--DO follow the snow line!

I know this won't be a lot of help--I shoot a 308 Norma which is very similar. Years ago I settled in on 79.5 gr of H4831 using a 165 Nosler Partition and a CCI mag primer. This has suited me well on Blacktail deer, Mule deer,Coues deer,Pronghorn and Elk. It -is built on an '03 Springfield. 300win mag smith and Wesson, Leopold, Federal premium

308 Norma Mag built on an '03 Springfield. Custom Fajen Varmiter stock with a 3 x 9 Weaver Widefield. 79 1/2 gr H 4831 pushing a 165 gr Nosler Partition.

Yeh John--I use Ichiban43 on all of the other siter except for AZSJ. I'm in Cognito.

Ok--Have a hunting party 2 doors down in the KOA--haven't caught up up with them yet!!--We are all hunting Elk in 10.

Thanx--I have stayed there a few times--ran into Christian once there too. looking for something farther east--closer to 19, n of Nogales.

I have that tag also. Instead of hunting out of Arivaca this year, I'm going to try the east side of the unit. Are there any good campgrounds or RV parks in the area? I have located a couple--Mi Casa & De Anza--was wondering if there were more near 36B.

Late Nov 36B--Thinking about hunting over toward the east side instead of out of Arivaca--any ball park suggestions?

Good choice on the front end loader. I believe Buffalo Bullet company is no longer in production. Now I read a later post that says they are.--They don't have a website. Might just have to call Ron and find out.

My bros is stainless-probably no differnce in the way they shoot. Nobody seems to have a problem with sun reflection. Stainless wold be my choice. But that is just an opinion not based on fact. His probably is that $139 model and he has killed 3 Elk with it. Using loose powder and a Buffalo Bullet. I think they are out of business now. Ron Dahlitz-founder/owner was my grandfathers neighbor. I knew him when I was a teenager. He and his family were huntin' fools.

You'll love it. The best part is no pressure for the most part. I still shoot a traditional sidelock percussion im 54 cal. I have a 50 Hawken also. I have harvested Deer, Elk & Antelope through the years. Today, most everything is in-line in 50 cal with souped up loads--but you still only have one shot most of the time. T/C, Traditions and CVA all make quality rifles in different price ranges. CVA runs a little less expensive for the most part. If you plan on using it out of state--be very mindful of their laws. CO, for one, is very restrictive. No scopes or electronic sites-no pelletized powder-no sabots. Don't know your finances--but I wouldn't sink a ton of jingle into it at 1st. My bro bought a bottom line CVA inline--and it works great. He was flying down here and we were headed to the area around Durango and he didn't want the hassle of flying with a gun & related gear so be bought this one and had it shipped to me. They sell for around $150 or so. He has a T/C Renegade with a Green River barrel that is SWEET!!

I was in a silver Silverado 2500 xtra cab short bed w/black tool box- top rail on the bed is dented where my bro dropped my 5th wheel on it. NRA decal in back window

I saw one about 3 weeks ago on Superstition/University Blvd--we were almost side by side getting on the loop 202 headed south. Who be dat???

Aside from being a pick-up truck--don't recall. Was paying attention to merging onto the freeway and negotiating traffic.

Early Nov WT--36B & turkey in 22

I have the Dec cow this yr--how did your Dad do?

Nuttin' Hunny!!!!!

Shot placement is everything for sure.--I use a sidelock percussion and moved up the a .54 cal--love it for Elk.--I hunt mostly in CO and sabots, pelletized powder and scopes are a no-no. As an FYI--minumum Cal for Elk in CO is .50

She is making a big issue of it--as she well should. You are correct in saying it should not be what she said, but how she said it that should be the judging criteria. She could have avoided the issue by giving the typical political non-answer. "I represent the State of Ca and they recently voted that a marriage is between a man and a woman and that is the law that I must abide by" Smoke that Perez!!! Perez Hilton is just a worthless little twerp IMHO--typical Hollywood leftie.

They tried to sneak in the porkulus bill and they got caught.--But it wiil arise again. Once they know what you own--it won't be long before they are knocking at your door.

Given the escalation of crime out in the brush, I approached AZGFD about adding to the archery directive already in place, the addition of muzzleloader seasons and making them permanent. Go to the bottom of page 7--the last paragraph and review the proposed change and please make comments. For directions on making comments--go to the end of the page. There are also other proposed changes that I'm sure will interest you also. BOB You may access the proposed rule through the Department’s website, using the following link: http://www.azgfd.gov/inside_azgfd/rules/do...dRulemaking.pdf http://www.azgfd.gov/inside_azgfd/rules/ru...g_updates.shtml

I can't bring myself to believe anything he says--his record is to the contrary. He votes to the left of everyone in the Senate. IMHO, he is a lying, pandering Socialist. I hope I am wrong.

I'll say 4475
