I'm going to get this out of the way up front. I know absolutely nothing about bear hunting. Friend put me in with him for a New Mexico rifle hunt and we got drawn. I bought lottery tickets and won $4.00.
We'll be hunting mid-august. The rifle I'll be taking is a 308 Browning BLR shooting...
I've been drawn to go ML hunting in New Mexico. Haven't shot in awhile. I used to shoot round balls but was looking at the Maxi-Hunter. I'll be hunting deer and would appreciate any advice you might have.
To have a starting point, I'm looking at shooting Hodgdon Thriple 7 ffg powder, #11...
Never hunted this unit. Had some friends tell me to put in and to my surprise I drew. Any suggestions on where I should start researching? The only info I found in a limited search was to stay by the river on the west side of the unit.
Does anyone have any info on this unit? A friend and I were looking into a hunt (1st or 2nd rifle) in 2017. From what I can gather, it will take us at least 1 PP and maybe 2 to get drawn.
From the internet, it appears to be a pretty rough unit.
