    Federal Ammo Question

    Not a cool elk story but hopefully a question that will end with a cool elk story. My uncle updated to a nice leupold on his rifle and I’m trying to find the ballistics info so I can order his cds dial for him. It’s older federal premium 300wm 200grain boat tail. His gun shoots it well, he’s...

    I’m looking to trade or sell my Remington 700 300WM sps stainless. It has an upgraded magpul hunter stock (original stock included).

    Moving before first light

    What’s everyone’s thoughts on this tactic? I use it with success and but I know some more conservative guys who don’t. I think with preseason scouting, map recon and general knowledge of how to move through the woods this can be done safety. Not moving through bedding or feeding areas etc. I...

    Early Rifle Montana

    Has anyone hunted the early rifle season in Montana? Around how many non-res pts does it take to get it? Looking for a change to the colder 3rd season hunts I usually do. A warmer wilderness hunt during the rut sounds awesome.
