Actually my Wby uses 84 gr with a 180 gr bullet. I was just thinking of the heavier bullet normally takes slower burning powder.

Havn't reloaded for the 35 Whelen, but large capacity, heavy bullets need slow burning powders. I use Reloader 25 in my .300 Wby, might be worth a look in the powder burn rate tables, along with others.

Lots of thunder, lightning and rain last night! I was reluctant to believe the monsoons had started a month early, but looks like they have. Just hope they continue all summer. Last we we didn't get much rain all summer.

Politics aside, oil companies make tons of money no matter who is in charge, Republicans or Democrats. OPEC controls the the world wide supply, when they limit their production, the prices go up. We have enough oil here in the US to meet our demands, but they sell it for whatever the world price...

What I want to know is why the prices are so high. All the excuses aside, the price of crude oil is around $120/barrel and the price of diesel is around $5.50/gal. The last time crude was $120 a little over a year ago, the price of diesel was more than a $1.00 LESS a gallon.! Oil companies...

Happy Father's Day to all the Dads out there. My Dad was my mentor, my best friend and my shining example of what a father should be. He raised 4 kids and was married to my Mother for 62 years. He took his last big game animal at 90 hunting with me here in Colorado. RIP Dad....see you again one day.

Got about 1/2" of rain. More coming Wednesday.

Our yearly average rainfall is 18" and average yearly snowfall is 66".

Well lots of thunder, lightning and rain today. Monsoons have arrived .......a month early! Hope it is the tip of the iceberg. We need the water. Over 1" is forecast today and then again tomorrow.

As usual get story and pix. Look forward to the rest of your hunt. Congrats buddy, you did good!

I too looked at the 2022 stats and and come to the conclusion that I might never draw a NR tag my favorite antelope unit again, I have hunted it as a non resident for over 40 years. I hunted it 3 years ago, so I have just started to get points again. If point creep and the 90/10 rule comes to...

How many of you older guys have thought about how you look at hunting opportunities? I am 80 (will be 81 in a few months) and a few years ago I realized that some of the really great areas I have hunted, I'll never be able to hunt them again. Some of my best areas in Wyoming and Colorado now...

Wish everyone good luck. Didn't apply for anything in Wy this year, just get some points for deer & antelope.

My wife thinks the soap/bleach probably softened the spongy marrow.

Nice. I tried to do scrimshaw many years ago and I tried some deer antler. It is really tough and hard. Gave up pretty quick. I also made some buttons from antler, They came out really nice. The problem is the center is marrow and really course and soft. Repeated washing the shirt they were on...

They have been pretty sketchy because I heard that nothing has been written yet, only agreement in principle.

Nope I was speaking of you and your post, that why I quoted it and you are the OP of it. He got quite a bit of advice and another thing none of use know is how many posted to him in a PM. The other thing I didn't see is anything from you as far as answering any of his questions.

So are residents....................just sayin.

Lots of comments about this forum, some by folks who don't participate much. This post is a good example. The OP has only posted 52 times in the 4 years he has been a member. If he logs on and watches around here, seems like he could have helped some too. I am not usually too negative about...
