    19A Coues?

    dse replied to joelpresmyk8's topic in Coues Deer Hunting in Arizona

    I always wondered how many people knew about them. I've got a quite few on trail cam and glassed up a few more, but have always been chasing elk when I saw them.

    HELP

    dse replied to mathews4804's topic in Long Range Shooting

    I have a weatherby vanguard that does the exact same thing. The way I fixed it was to buy a remy 700.

    Question of Ethics

    dse replied to Whitetailcurse's topic in Predator Hunting and Trapping

    I've had three e-callers now, until last week I had never called a dog with a e-call and several with hand calls along with a couple foxes. Last week found a fox pro prairie blaster on clearance. Since then 3 song dogs thought they were having deer for breakfast and got lead poisoning instead. I do like hand calls, but if I can get more coyotes with an e-caller that's what I'll use.

    26 Nosler

    dse replied to Coach's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing

    The BC of the lrab in 6.5 is .561. The .277 lrab is .625. Cutting edge has a .277 130gr bullet with a BC of .540. Still not seeing a big advantage in bullet selection. However the .26 would be the clear winner in the muzzle flash contest.

    Looks to me like it won't do anything the 270 wsm won't, except burn a lot more powder and $$$ doing it.

    Feedback for TSX &. TTSX

    dse replied to azhuntnut's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing

    Used the 130 gr ttsx in a 270wsm for a coues buck a couple years ago. From 274 yds the bullet hit him in the throat and exited 4" to the 8 o'clock of his tail. Best penetrating bullet I have used.

    French squirrel kicker

    dse replied to muley224's topic in The Campfire

    Maybe it was a bad camera angle and the Frenchman really kicked a pebble over and the squirrel really jumped because he was tired of living a life begging from tree hugging tofu farting fairies.

    WANT TO BUY AIRLINE APPROVED BOW CASE

    dse replied to SO I HUNT's topic in Classified Ads

    Had the great guys at the TSA break all four lock on my skb on the way to Alaska a few years ago. From the time I called them to the time I had new locks in hand was three days. I thought that was very impressive as sometimes it took that long to get a phone call out of that place.

    Reloading questions

    dse replied to creed_az_88's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing

    If it were me I would full length size the first time after fire forming then neck size after that. Neck sizing will result in better case life and will likely be more accurate as the case will be a perfect fit in your action. I would go with either rcbs or Hornady dies and make sure they are the Ackley version as there are other improved versions.

    suggestions on a load

    dse replied to 5guyshunting's topic in Rifles, Reloading and Gunsmithing

    I've had really good luck with rl-22 but have only used Barnes and swift tipped 130gr

    Sounds like it should work!

    Scopes

    dse replied to 208muley's topic in Long Range Shooting

    I would seriously consider the Leupold mark 4 for sale in the classifieds right now for 900.

    16x is plenty for 600. I use a 14x
  16. dse
    I like the 270 wsm, but if you want to go 600yds on elk I would go 300wsm. I think it can be ordered but if not 300wm or 7 mag.

    Helicopter rental?

    dse replied to muledeerarea33?'s topic in Classified Ads

    I had a heli buzz and run off some elk I was watching in 19a on a cow hunt a couple years ago. Reported it but they told me not to worry it was theirs.

    At what point should we restrict people making restrictions. We already have enough, that no one could read them all in a life time. You do your thing, I'll do mine.

    Kidso. If you want try them before you buy, I also have the 338 win and 375 ruger Both in stainless hawkeyes along with the H&H. An hour north of the valley. If you want, you'd be welcome to come burn some powder.

    From my experience when you have a 1000 lb Brown at 50yds throwing his head with strings of snot flying through the air and turning alders to kindling. Giving you every indication that things are about to get western, recoil will be the last thing on your mind.
  23. dse
    I had a savage 111 in 300 win mag and honestly I would much rather shoot the .375. The xcr came with the limbsaver recoil pad, helps a ton. I also had A ruger Hawkeye up there it did not take it as well. The 375 has a deceiving kick, a big push rather than sharp jolt. Off hand or sitting down is very comfortable laying down you will notice it.

    My Remington 700 xcr 375H&H spent 4 summers on the west coast of Alaska laying on the banks of holes and getting rained on. Still looks and functions like new. Awesome gun that will take anything you throw at it!

    +1 for Leupold 1000. Good to about 700 off hand and have hit 1004 off the tripod
