I’ve had a property up on Palomar for 10 years. I spend a lot of time there, at least 3 to 4 days a week all year long. I also watch other properties for people up there so I’m all over. All I did first quarter this year was cut dead black oaks. The property has lost all its larger black oaks...

I keep pictures of them so when I’m forced to sell them to pay for joe Bidens gas I can remember…

And if you have lifetime upland and waterfowl stamps? Thats why I bought them 10 years ago, that and the license and big game too. If you’re young, buy them or certainly before you retire

Actually Buds does have several CZ available. I’d still go to their 1000 price point and get the Red Head or Sharptail. You want to make sure those barrels are well regulated

I can see that. I use quail guides in Arizona and they don’t care for semis - they cannot visually see that a gun is safe unless it is broken open. If you really want an O/U or side by side I wouldn’t buy anything under $1000. CZ probably owns the best low end break open guns. I bought a FAIR...

While I still own a couple of 12 gauges I almost never use them anymore. Ammo is so much better now that a 20 gauge can pretty much do whatever a 12 used to be able to do without the pounding. They’re lighter too. As Steve said with TSS shot, you don’t need a 12 for turkeys. I’ve shot a half...

X Bolts are great rifles, I’ve had a number of them. my current one is one of the last stainless stalkers chambered in .280 Remington. I had a 300 WSM in the stainless but it was light and the recoil was too much for me. 300s have recoil that is quite a step up from the .30-06 but heavier rifle...

Yes but get an MOA turret so you can convert to any load. A custom turret for one load is problematic because things change, you'll need a different load for a different hunt or you hunt hunt at a very different altitude, etc. messing with different turrets is a PITA. They will give you 1 free...

I had a Browning xbolt in 300 WSM but it was light and had no brake and made me flinch. Tried a 300 Win Mag in a heavier Weatherby Accuguard and after a bit I was flinching again. So I shoot nothing heavier that a .270 and .280 now. But if you’re a reloader I definitely preferred the 300 WSM...

They’re both great, I own several of both, and a Swarovski. On the whole I think Zeiss and Swarovski are a notch above Leupold but it depends on the level. The two you mentioned are very similar quality so go with the one that meets your needs. Generally I like a scope for hunting that has a...

I’ve “only“ been a hunter for 15 years…I’ve been fishing on various oceans for 40 years. As for real addictions I’ve also been sober for 31 years

Great pictures!

What do you have to trade? PM me

I’d live to find the lazy ones but I just seem to run into the other kind haha

Last year I bought at FAIR ISIDE SXS 20 gauge. It’s not a terribly expensive gun, around $1700 but looks and shoots like a much more expensive gun. I wanted a SXS but didnt want to risk spending more and finding I don’t like them. But I do and I’m already thinking about buying an upgraded one...

I just wanted to acknowledge that they exist haha. I’ve spend a lot of time trying to actually hunt them and this year I actually got a couple of shooting opportunities. The problem with our local mountains are they they’re just so choked with overgrown brush that there are very few areas of...

Back on market

I’m jealous. Very thick set of antlers. I’ve gone on two Coues hunts and have yet to bag one. Probably still learning the game. I’m back to 4 points again so maybe next year. I’ve been in unit 23 and 34a prior. One late season where I saw a few bucks I just couldn’t get a decent shot on them...
