    Why does it always seem like there is a conspiracy against the 7mm-08?

    Mine shoots every box of Federal blue box (150 speer hotcors I believe) just about 1.1 MOA. It’s a Tikka T3 wearing a Leupold VX-3i 2.5-8X with an upgraded Limbsaver and metal bolt shroud. I have shot many 5 shots groups of less than 1 MOA with handloaded 120 NBTs but yesterday I was not doing...

    Carrying Pistol in Backcountry

    I get what you are saying, I really do. It makes sense. I am hesitant. Right now I am actually afraid to put in for elk tags in any states because having no backcountry experience I would be learning to camp and learning how to hunt elk all at the same time. An outfitter not in my budget right...

    Random draw odds cyclic?

    Oh for sure. The ones I observed this on are more specifically doe antelope tags in WY and Elk tags in NM neither of which have points systems associated with them. and thanks.

    Random draw odds cyclic?

    So a couple states I’m looking at for big game hunts have random draws as part of the deal (some states have no points at all, others like Wyoming have points but with 25% NR tags to random with no points advantage at all). I like this as a new late adult onset hunter (35 this Feb). I have been...

    Carrying Pistol in Backcountry

    I have never backcountry hunted before. I intend to get my feet wet by going for antelope in Fall 2020 and planning on starting to build elk and mule deer points in CO, WY, and possibly MT for future years. (Based on drive time from eastern US, I feel I can now and likely for several more years...

    Wy antelope

    Well it is specific because many HMAs have Unlimited access permits given. So you need to take the HMA and its access policies into consideration when looking at a unit, you can’t just rule them all out off the get go.

    Wy antelope

    That area had a 900 tags and only 50 hunters allowed to Broom Creek. I wouldn’t count on it if that’s a decision for applying to this unit or not.
