    Petition - OTC for Colorado Residents

    that's not nice DAN, they have the right to OTC or the privilege. I think anyone who comes in this thread to bicker should sign the petition.

    Appalachian Big 3 tour hunt.

    if you want the closest thing to western hunting head up to the Adirondacks or New Hampshire. you could also get into the smokey mountains. the Adirondacks can be rough but there are plenty of deer and bear. it can be tough to find them due to the amount of land and the fact that bears go...

    Help with a .308 load

    16" barrel w/suppressor, would expect to be more in the 2500 - 2600 range which is likely where he'll find the accuracy. that's what I'm coming up with for vel. on quickload also.

    Petition - OTC for Colorado Residents

    again, hunting predates any government. the 50 states did not create hunting or the privilege, we just implemented laws in the name of conservation to prevent the annihilation of species. this has been recognized as fact worldwide and upheld in courts. in case you didn't know, its...

    Petition - OTC for Colorado Residents

    yes, you have that right, it is a natural right. but you will get arrested, that is a law. there are differences in rights and laws are not rights or privileges, then are just an enforceable rule based on society.

    Petition - OTC for Colorado Residents

    another turn, great lol. hunting is a human, natural right that we all have. its the same as the bear, wolf, lion etc. now I do consider it a privilege to hunt these animals but that is granted by god, not some other human who thinks he's god. I'm sure what you mean is in relation to the...

    Help with a .308 load

    yes 8 thou. is a lot. should be half that at most. as far as accuracy of a chrono, only way to know is compare it to another chrono. I do have that one and it has been fairly accurate compared to my magneto. but distance from muzzle makes a big difference in readings. put the chrono 10-15 feet...

    Petition - OTC for Colorado Residents

    to address the other statements, cost does limit people to some degree. maybe less now than in the past, but still a limiting factor. there are places here that require a use permit for all activities both R and NR. its sucks and I never go there which is a shame because I grew up in some of...

    Petition - OTC for Colorado Residents

    I assure you, random is never fair. nothing in life that just randomly happens is ever fair. unless you randomly find a satchel filled with cash, but then it usually comes with trouble lol. yes, I'm in the NE so every state over here is a pain. but on occasion, there is a reg that over time...

    Help with a .308 load

    I realize you're new to this so you may not understand why I said to drop your charge weight. when reloading, you have to listen to what the gun is telling you and what the chrono tells you. you gun has told you it is building pressure earlier than most, and the chrono agrees buy showing higher...

    Help with a .308 load

    I really think you're gonna need to be around 43.2-43.7 with that load. I know you're chasing velocity but velocity = pressure and 308's are not speed rounds. I ran your load through quick load and no matter how I do it I show overpressure for those velocities. now, I cant compensate for a can...

    Help with a .308 load

    little surprised by the velocity but glad to see you're getting there. what's your max load for pressure signs? also, try groups with the can off.

    Petition - OTC for Colorado Residents

    true, but random isn't always good or fair. one hunter may take years to draw where another hunter may draw consistently. remove draw, and a PP system gets put on a cycle which limits all hunters equally for a given unit. it's how some units here are done and each unit has its own cycle. my...

    Posting unit #'s

    I dont dissagree, but what many complain about is not that. there are no 8-15 year olds jumping on this forum asking for unit #'s . I'd guess most are over 25 and most already have basic hunting skills. the majority of people who ask these things are just looking for the easy button. it is...

    Petition - OTC for Colorado Residents

    if OTC and PP were managed correctly then a lot of problems would be solved. personally, I don't get why anyone should be able to buy points. points should be earned not bought.

    Posting unit #'s

    speak for yourself, I came out of the womb with a rabbit in my teeth and a bow on my back. there's a difference between helping people and spoon feeding them because they don't want to do the work. but I agree, we should pass on knowledge.

    Issues with hiring a plumber
