    Buyer thinks I sold a defective rifle

    Backstory: I decided that I no longer wanted my rifle and that I was going to sell it, plus the scope it wore and all the ammo I had for it. I post it on a local outdoor forum and someone buys it all for the asking price the next day, he claims it won’t eject spent shells and is defective and...

    I wasn't sure if this should be put here or in the Elk forum, but here goes So about a month ago I noticed some extreme pain and surmised it was from a bad gallbladder based on google and since both my folks had their removed and my symptoms lined up with theirs. I decided to aggressively...

    Arizona Antelope Video

    So I decided that I’d like to start filming hunts, mostly to be able to show folks back home was hunting is like out here since AZ is so different from NY and when I talk to folks like my grandfather, I don’t think they can fully understand the vastness and beauty of the desert...even at 120*F...

    Salt River Canyon Bighorns

    Hey y'all The better half and I went on a "cruise" of sorts at Canyon Lake here in AZ with the AZGFD and the ADBSS to spot sheep in the canyon. They're a species I had yet to see here and it was pretty cool getting to see them and talk sheep with other patrons, some of whom had drawn tags and...

    7mm-08 Interlocks for Elk

    So I was at the range the other day messing with my rifles like always, and my M70 really doesn’t like the Accubonds I was hopingit would, but the Horandy American Whitetail load turned in a .5” group at 100. What do folks think of this bullet for elk? Nothing pressing as I don’t have a tag, but...

    Arizona Merriam's

    Well, I finally got one on Day 2 of my hunt. W went in blind and couldn't find any turkeys to put to bed, they weren't making a peep that night, but we had 2 gobbling their heads off uphill from us at daybreak. We hauled but up the mountain and caught up with them about a mile up the canyon. We...

    Fixed Power Scopes

    Hey Y'all, What fixed power scopes do you guys prefer? I've been debating on putting a 4x or 6x scope on my M70 featherweight 7mm-08 and I'd like something with a "classic" look to it. The rifle is currently sporting a Leupold VX-3i 3.5-10x40, but I'm 1/2 thinking about getting another rifle and...

    Lee Reloading Kit?

    Morning Everyone, So I just picked up a Weatherby Vanguard S2 .257 Wby Mag on clearance at Sportsmans. Now I know Weatherby ammo is pretty expensive, with some "cheaper" offerings of the Norma Spitzers going for $40/box at my local ammo options. I'd like to start reloading as I seem to have an...

    Outdoor writers/Authors: Looking for a specific story story

    Hey All, So I love reading the old outdoor/hunting stories, and there was one about hunting in Africa that I can't seem to re-find. The story is about 2 hunters traveling into uncharted Africa in a touring car (thinking it was in the 30's) in search of giant black maned lions. I think it was...

    How Many Pins?

    Hey All, So I've got a single pin Black Gold Ascent on my bow, but I'm thinking about ordering a multi pin head for it through my local shop (called black gold direct and they said this was the easier/cheaper option than going straight through them). My question is, for the folks that use this...

    Inexpensive Quality Camo (Arizona)

    Hey All, So I've got a question for y'all. For any of y'all that do, or have had hunted in the great deserts of Arizona, what clothing do you prefer to wear while you're out? I've recently moved here from NY and I don't think that what I've been wearing there will work as well out here...

    Eating Carp...yay or nay?

    What is everyone's take on catching and eating carp? or other "trash" fish for example? Me and a co worker were discussing cooking and eating wild meats (he grew up in the city and is fascinated with the concept hunting and eating game) and we got on the subject of fish and he brought up carp...

    Hey from Arizona

    Hey All, I just recently started doing the forum thing and found you guys after listening to Randy's podcasts for the past few month (for a "millennial" I am pretty slow to get onto the technological bandwagon). Like it says in the title, I am in Arizona, but only within the last few months as...
