Yes, you 100% have to keep your head on a swivel driving in that country or you are likely to end up with a new hood ornament. When I was there hunting it looked like herds of ants crawling over every open mountain side.
I got the survey as a nonresident who has applied for the unit in the past. I don't see how a general tag will do anything, you could issue 10k worth of type 1 tags and have no access to the animals.
My Wisconsin buck taken October 13th. Never would have guessed he grossed that high. I almost passed on him until I saw the beams were nearly touching and I could identify which buck he was from years past.
After testing probably 40 different loads I think I've settled on 55.3 grains of H1000, Nosler brass Fed 210's, and 143 ELD-X's. Shooting 2927 fps I just have to load up a few more and see what they do at distance. Hoping to get it figured out before Wyoming antelope starts.
For any cheap scope I go with a Burris Signature HD with the E3 reticle. I have a few Nightforce SHV's and a Huskemaw and I have a hard time telling a difference in the quality of glass. You can also get a custom turret made if you're looking to shoot long range
Anybody else switch from the extended magazine to the hawkins precision? I have a 6.5 prc and the hawkins mag is incredibly tight fitting. I'm thinking about sanding and rounding the corners down to make an easier fit.
I did a big 20x30 print and framed it with some old barn boards. It used to hang next to the turkeys, but I moved it to make room for the pedestal mount.
They're Rio's from south central Kansas. It was a 1 shot double so I figured I better do something neat with them. My buddy took this photo which I think turned out pretty cool the Taxidermist was from Lusk, WY but I can't recall his business name.
My first wall mount is the one on the far right from back in 2005, the two on the pedestal are from 2019, and 2021's future wall mount is hanging off the turkey mount.
You can find them on gunbroker for 1$ a round, but im not sure where else you will find them. I'd be willing to talk on the ELD-X's if you want tonget rid of a few
