    Do they post those auction results anywhere? I always get a kick out of seeing what those things go for. -I have fought tougher men, but I really can't remember when-

    Zeiss customer service

    They typically take 6 months to do anything. I have sent several scopes in for retrofit knobs. I sent one in to have a reticle changed and I needed a new turret knob as I had lost the original one and they just sent me a new scope (apparently they didn't have those knobs anymore). All in All...

    "Backdoor" accuracy... post your outcome here

    It was correct. I drew deer and barbary. Plus, as a bonus, I got elk too (which was not something I could have known with the backdoor). -I have fought tougher men, but I really can't remember when-

    President Obama... end this discrimination now

    I wish I was you. You can establish residency in AZ and buy a lifetime hunting license and then establish residency in NM, thus placing yourself in the resident pool for the draw in both states!...cry me a river. -I have fought tougher men, but I really can't remember when-

    Swaro SLC Tripod Adapter (Stud)

    Awesome, thanks! I just ordered it. Of course I have never felt like so much of a schmuck before, having to decline to purchase the much superior outdoorsmans system to just add this one little stud to my setup. -I have fought tougher men, but I really can't remember when-

    NM FREE-RANGE BISON HUNT (VIDEO)

    Ya, Ya, Ya, I know we can't shoot em and I wouldn't have had enough ammo to even dent that herd anyways. They are fun to see though. -I have fought tougher men, but I really can't remember when-

    Nightforce Scope Advice

    Just pick whichever Velocity reticle matches the cartridge/load you will be using. That way you will also have a reticle that works matches out to say 500, but more importantly it has 1 MOA hash mark on the horizontal for windage. The other cool thing about the gunwerks one is that it doesn't...

    Zeiss customer service

    They are very slow. I don't think you are getting the runaround, this is just how they operate. It should get done, but won't be quick (obviously). The fact that they offered you a Terra could be concerning though. I do think that is strange. Perhaps since the conquest is no longer being...

    Bell and Carlson

    The bell and carlson medalist is a very good stock with an aluminum bedding block. Just bolt it in and go. These are the lazy mans way to bed a rifle and work very well, it might even improve your accuracy. -I have fought tougher men, but I really can't remember when-

    Re: NR tags

    NM does not give enough NR tags for them to fund the G&F. I am a resident and I agree that they should give more NR tags. I don't know why they don't make it 10% like everywhere else. The guided pool is just absurd...on par with Wyomings wilderness law. -I have fought tougher men, but I...

    Backpacking tent reviews wanted

    spotting scope or binos w/ tripod

    For me the most important thing is the tripod. You can't use a spotting scope without it (obviously), but I find a lot more stuff with even my 10X's on it. The first really good spot that I made with with my 7X50's on a tripod and I found a barbary sheep at over 1.5 miles (confirmed by GPS...

    Vortex Kaibab HD 20x56 ???

    I think you need a pretty good tripod for 15X's, and still need to carry a smaller bino. But I am a real fan of the tripod. I don't really even like free handing my 10's anymore cause its just creates eye strain. I carry big awesome 7X50's and either my 10X50's or 15X56's utilize the tripod...

    Nightforce scope

    LAST EDITED ON Feb-04-14 AT 08:03AM (MST)[p]LAST EDITED ON Feb-04-14 AT 07:59?AM (MST) I wish they would make a 3-15X40 with small knobs...that would be the perfect hunting scope in my opinion. Plenty of ability to shoot something at 1000 yards, but small enough to not require its own special...

    Barnes X

    Do you have a barnes reloading manual for them? I do remember that max loads were alway a couple grains less because they make greater pressure than traditional bullets. Make sure you start low and work up. -I have fought tougher men, but I really can't remember when-

    Ibex Nanny Hunt?

    What a crock!...my dad got called! This will be his 3rd "qualifying hunt" tag. He drew it two years in a row, back in the day when you were guaranteed the billy tag if you killed two F/IM and brought em in to G&F. He got his nice billy the first year and didn't even go the second year! (he...

    Decent sized pack

    Look at the eberlystock just one J-34. It opens up fairly big, but closes down nice and tight too. It also caries a gun. Do not buy a sitka daypack. My buddy bought one for $400 Plus and broke both shoulder straps trying to carry out about 50 lbs of meat on this packs first trip to the...

    Underarmour V firstlite

    It works about the same, but the first lite is better because it doesn't stink. Pretty amazing what wool does to prevent odor. I have fought tougher men, but I really can't remember when.

    Nosler bullet question

    The CT bullets are lubed, but other than that they are the same. I know winchester loads ammo with the CT bullets and it seems to me like this was some sort of marketing ploy by winchester to insinuate that they had a hand in the bullets origin or something.

    280 Rem Mono loading

    I load the 120g TSX in my 284 win for somewhere in the 3000-3100 FPS range and its a great load. You don't need anything thing heavier until you move up to elk, and even then if you pick your shots it will work just fine and might even exit on a broadside lung shot. I have also loaded 140...

    Wow, they will definately lose money on this, but my odds of drawing should go way up! I really doubt this will attract more people to purchase and I never bought 20 tickets so I am glad to get rid of those guys.

    Kryptek Cadog Pants vs. Sitka Mountain Pants

    LAST EDITED ON Dec-12-13 AT 04:16PM (MST)[p] I have the mountain pants and they are very comfortable, but if I had it to do over I would buy the Timberline pants (same thing but with gore-tex over the knees and in the seat). This is needed because these soak up water like a sponge. The good...
