The closest ive ever been while actually stalking was a little fawn muley that i was hunting with a camera. I dont know the exact distance, but it couldnt have been more then 20 yards. I also was stalking (huffing and puffing trying to get in front of) a herd of elk. As i walked up over a rise...

kinda figured someone might have some kind of idea wth is going on

i would go with an older rifle if i could find one locally that wasnt out of line price wise. And jerkface, why wouldnt you go with a remington? It is as good or better then any other factory rifle. I might go savage, but i despise the fact that you have the option between a blind mag or those...

Ive been wanting to get a remington 700 to work on and build into a long range rig.......i was thinking an sps. It appears that every online retailer is out of stock on everything. I kinda assume that it has something to do with the recall, but i cant seem to find any info on what the heck is...

I think what they did was detestable, however i found myself even more angry with your opinion feanor. To outlaw any type of hunting because it is cruel or unsporting does nothing but open the door for people to attack other styles of hunting. Hunting is a practice in killing, when is killing a...

really.....where do you hunt deer, ive always felt like even with my equuipment the deer have the advantage. Sure you might kill one, but how many were you 20 yards from that remained undetected?

I would say that people who think that bobcats are a rare animal need to slow down and be quieter in the woods. I have seen 4 in the last year, and there are tons more then that. These animals are very stealthy and their camo is greatly underestimated. If they know you are there they dont always...

I have an ar 15 with no front sight, is the vortex strikefire going to be what i need. I want the dot to be where the bullet hits, in some of the cheaper red dots if you move your head the point of impact changes. This is a coyote rifle and with some of the snapshooting that ive had to do lately...

"Here in Arizona, there is no where that mountain lions don't range. Az issues 250-350 permits /yr." where did you come up with that statistic? The tags are over the counter non permit tags. I guarantee at least 10x that many tags are sold.

"Yes, when their adrenaline is coursing through the blood stream under duress, it does change it." Dont know how to tell you this, but the second the bullet hits the animal they have a huge adrenaline dump. If what you say is true it is almost impossible to have good tasting meat if the...

"mulies and pronghorn taste nasty if they were running as you shot them" not only is this untrue as i have eaten mulie that was shot on a dead run several times. But it doesnt make any sense. Are you suggesting that the meat somehow changes when an animal is in the act of running? Does the...

Its tough, if there was a set and specific way of dealing with that problem my position would change. A few years ago a friend of mines wife killed a button bull elk (antlers about an inch long) on a cow tag. He called G&F and they were really nice to him and his wife. I cant remember if he...

I wish i could find out if i got my first choice tag. I probably wont as i dont have enough bonus points to realistically draw it. If i do somehow get the tag i got a good feeling about a MONSTER bull. Ive seen the same one several times and know there are bunches more in that area.

a mosin with the proper bullet will kill anything in north america i would think. Ballistically very similar to the 30-06. The 30-30 will do a good job too as long as you operate within its limits.

If it works for you go for it, i might try out some bigger shot though. A little bigger shot might extend your range a bit.

Hunters safety courses are a good thing, i grew up hunting with my dad and i didnt have to take the course to hunt here in az. I took one anyway and i actually learned alot. What job do you have that ABSOLUTELY DENIES! your ability to take a class? As much as you said you didnt want anyone to...

ive heard that clocking the broadhead argument several times and to be completely honest i dont get it. I shoot 4 blade slick tricks with 3 fletching arrows. Shouldnt that fly bad? According to alot of people it should, but guess what......it doesnt. Anyone care to explain that to me?

i sure as hell wouldnt want to be shot with it. Im sure it will kill anything on earth with the proper shot placement.

Ok im done, you guys dont want to understand so im no longer going to try to explain. If you are ever serious about wanting to know "why long shots" put in for a unit 20a mule deer tag in arizona. Heres my opinion, if spot and stalk ending with potential of a long shot isnt sporting, i would...

i have a case trimmer, and calipers. As long as i can get great accuracy out of the rifle i dont much care whether i have to necksize or fl size. Im not interested in shooting .5inch groups. Im interested in collapsing lungs and breaking bones on big game. I do like the ability to shoot long...
