Looks like we're going Coues hunting this fall, here in AZ. Credit Card was hit this morning. G&F accounts aren't updated yet, (usually on Friday's) so we'll have to wait a couple of days before finding out which late rifle tag we drew.
This was totally unexpected as our draw odds were in the...
Had really good luck with my ARE. Bought it 6 years ago & have spent 3 doz + nights in the topper. Put a bed rug in it, rope LED light on the interior roof, & sealed up the tailgate to keep the dust out.
Haven't had any problems with it leaking water & get minimal dust inside the shell. Also...
Have the same problem, either sleep diagonally or drop the tailgate & clip and moving blanket onto the liftgate to insulate. Works pretty well down to mid-twenties. Being from AZ also helps...
Ran into a little snag with this year's AZ elk & antelope draw. Set my grandson up with an auto renewal youth resident license a couple of years back. He turned 18 this past year, & was given another youth hunting license for the upcoming year thru the renewal process. We were told that I...
Got caught in an early snow pulling a trailer from Coeur d'Alene to Butte on I-90 few years back. Never want to do that again. Use a Topper with a bed rug, & a Teton sleeping pad. Add a hitch haul for added exterior storage space & have done quite well over the past 5 years of in/out state...
Have had very good results with 58.0 grains of Mag Pro pushing a 101 grain Barnes LRX all copper bullet, at 3105 FPS.
No problems in finding this powder locally, avoiding hazardous shipping fees. Price for powder is also reasonable.
Tried closing the bolt on all cases B4 the bullet was seated. No problem in closing. Just after the seating did the problem arise & then only in 1 out of 3 rounds. Also am running a lighter load at 2800 FPS as the groupings were the tightest at 100 yards.
Appreciate the feedback... you're...
Ran into a very similar problem with Dad's .270 Win in a Remington 721 bolt action. It was the 2nd time reloading the brass, when about 30% of the rounds the bolt wouldn't close. Took into a local gunsmith with a good reputation & they measured the chamber. Was told the chamber wasn't...
Missing the point here... the benefit here is to the Mt resident who has the opportunity to hunt with their family. Not the guy from Iowa, who has a program called a NR license.
