    Where you hunting this year?

    I wasn't quite sure on the B tags, it has been a long time since I even considered more than one elk tag. I glance over that section of the guide book and really don't pay it much attention. But on that note I had a friend years ago when they first allowed up to 6 elk per hunter and he...

    MOA at different elevations

    My PH and outfitter asked me about my .340 Weatherby when I went to the bench to check it's zero. I just told them that I was shooting hand loads that were quite a bit under the max for that bullet and powder combination and that I had built them up in our summer here in Colorado. Granted it...

    MOA at different elevations

    With that much of a temperature difference you will also get different velocities out of the same round with the higher temperature shots being a little bit faster. There are a lot of hunters that sight in their rifles and load their ammo in the cold months and then head over to Africa in the...

    Where you hunting this year?

    You can only have one A tag, and only one B tag and a unlimited number of C tags. I believe that just about all C tags are private land tags, and B tags are cow and doe tags. And or combination of the above. I don't have the guide book in front of me but there is a explanation of them in it

    MOA at different elevations

    It will make a difference but not really that much when it comes to shooting elk, deer, or antelope. Now if you were after parrie dogs at 500 yards it might. But then it is like CC said is is mostly used by long range target shooters where a inch may be the difference between a win and a...

    Where you hunting this year?

    I looked at the leftover list, it is a lot like Thanksgiving dinner leftovers come Sunday. Not much to pick from but I plan on picking up a muzzle loader bear tag for unit 44 since I have the deer muzzle loader tag for it. Other than that my hunting partner is having health problems so he is...

    6.5 To kill an elk?

    I'm with CC. I shoot a, 340 Weatherby and have no problem with using it as a elk, deer, or even a antelope rifle. Those 225 grain Barnes TTSX bullets strike like Thor's hammer. However I do draw the line using it as a gopher rifle, that is unless I screw on the muzzle brake and then I'll...

    New Mexico requiring quarantine

    As for Colorado there are a lot of restrictions in place, just not a travel one.

    New Mexico requiring quarantine

    It would be interesting to see the state of New Mexico and the Navajo Nation comparison. From what I have read the Navajo Nation is having quite a problem with it and a lot of it is in New Mexico.

    6.5 To kill an elk?

    Will a 6.5 kill a elk? Yes, it will. Are there a lot better options out there, yes. A lot of elk are killed with .243's and other rounds in the 6mm's but that doesn't mean that it is now the go to round for them.
