So of course you hear and see more elk during the peak of the Rut, but does that actually lead to success/killing? ex. do you think sitting water pre-rut in New Mexico you could be successful vs calling/hunting during the rut peak? also what about just pre rut and hunting vs sitting water...

Kinda surprised to see some steel racks in the $380-480 price range that look halfway decent....?? Probably going to build my own out of 4x4 posts, for $75, but at about $400 for a a real steel squat rack has me thinking, although looks a bit light duty.... always thought a good rack was like...

Curious what others think are the "easier" more bow huntable animals to be successful hunting are...? Feel free to expand the NA10 list further if you feel, ex., Brown bear impossible to bowhunt....black bear easier... NA10 (in order from sentiment, will be updated) Deer (Whitetail... ) Bear...

Wouldn't the 300prc and 375 Ruger be even better if they were magnum length vs standard? I realize they came out to fit into standard length actions... I just think they would fill a nice niche between say the 375H&H and 375 RUM or 300win.mag, and 300 RUM they'd give you increased...

I don't know how each state operates, but I had the thought, that poachers should lose all their bonus points if caught. Not sure how many poachers have built up a bunch of points, but could be a good deterrent. What do you think?

I'm surprised NV won't let non-res, at least buy and build points for Mountain Goat and Rocky Mountain Bighorn Sheep, even when they're closed in off years?? I mean we have to front the $160 license we should be able to keep building points IMO. for even off species. Not to mention the state...

What units do they hunt? Private land vs public? draw tags vs Landowner? I'd like to hunt CO antelope in the future... seems like much of the good goat country is on private land or long draw odds? thanks for any insight!

Why does MT charge over $600 for a mule deer tag??

Seems like these 2 could be pretty popular, no? fast, high BC,

Noticed in eastmans' mrs.... 2 of the top 3 pronghorn have come from fremont country, anyone know which units these came out of? also they said they were from 2016 and 2017. Looks like WY biggest antelope ever scored 92 0/8. Wow! I think if I was lucky enough to take anything over 82" I would...

strongly considering a DIY archery elk hunt this fall, just not sure where... I have points in most states that I probably don't want to burn, so 2nd choice or a draw somewhere like ID, NM, etc...maybe MT or other state and not burn my points. would like to be successful harvesting an elk with...

came across a .416 rem load with a 350 tsx around 2700fps Have a .340wby, thinking possibly insead of the 375H&H, that a 416rem/rigby could do more for me. maybe one day I'll have both, but would the 416 be better for me than the 375. maybe one day I'll hunt brown bear and africa, but more...

Anyone out there have a go to 5.56 coyote load? I have a 7 twist so thinking heavier the better, 62, 68, 75, 77. Haven't test the rifle enough yet to know if it loves a particular load. Did test a 62gr FMJ american eagle bullet into about 2ft worth of magazines....and granted it was basically...

Finally put the bison up on the wall in the right spot. Pictures rarely do justice of the size. Think I need a 2nd bison! It was funny in the process of mounting my Buffalo, my taxidermist said get the classic straight on view. Then a while later another taxidermist told me never get the...

Looking for a suggestion if any of you out there know of a tough .380 load for the trail? Does anyone carry a 380 or 9mm on the trail? Thanks! *Side-note, hard cast lead bullets, what's the deal with those? max penetration? they seem as if they would blow up upon impact, but it seems those...

always thinking about my next cartridge or what if... Anyone have any experience with the 6.5 PRC? How new is this cartridge? I know the 6.5 creed is already quite popular. Believe the 6.5 PRC is based on the ruger magnum / RCM case. I think I need one... Only saw 2 factory loads on...

Was curious if any of y'all out there.... use to be in shape... and then after years/decades made a come back.... and finally got back to where you were years earlier....or at least back to in shape or in great shape...? I'm probably a tad hard on myself, but being a former athlete...

I've been really wanting to climb Granite Peak in MT. Trying to this summer. Thought some of you out there might have already, or have some thoughts etc... I'm in IL, While the granite peak climb with be mostly a 3 day hike, 25mile round trip. I also rock climb, so ideally would like to do...

Had the thought, instead of everyone saying which cartridge is best or better than the other... Maybe we could simplify the idea with... just name the bullet weight and velocity... of course there is which category... A. Antelope/Mule deer? B. do all up to Elk/Moose? no big bears/dangerous...

I see it time and time again... a rifle model will chamber the .243win and it'll sport a 22" barrel yet the 7mm-08/308 will come with a 24" barrel. ie., a .243win needs more barrel length than a .308 Maybe customers just expect a .243 with a 22"? or for kids? handiness? I dunno?
