    Planning an antelope hunt around school starting

    I’ve hunted in wyoming twice and had a tag in NM that got wasted because I had to evacuate due to a hurricane and didn’t get to go. Wyoming’s season is late September and goes through October IRRC. Just did an elk hunt in NM and the outfitter I believe said landowner tags/season are both August...

    Euro mount smells

    Yeah that was including very expensive shipping . And I killed him in the middle of the rut at the very beginning of rifle season with his own little harem. He was very ripe of rut . Felt like it took 2-3 showers to get the smell off me after . Going to try all the above things starting with...

    Euro mount smells

    Yeah maybe it’s just that. They couldn’t have finished long ago . They called me for final payment about 5 days ago , and I killed it 7 weeks ago. Shipper happened to be coming through about they time they finished . Again it couldn’t look better … it doesn’t smell rotting , hard for me to...

    Euro mount smells

    That’s a bummer. Going to try all these things also going to try some natures miracle pet urine remover . Hopefully it helps but I’m skeptical. Good to know that they won’t discolor the antlers. It was in NM. I’ve got a guy who lives in my old town who just does euros in his garage as a side...

    Euro mount smells

    Thanks guys. My hope is that it’s just elk piss on the antlers. The mustiness makes me think it could be that. The smell *seems* like it’s coming from the antlers . Skull is still plastic wrapped but doing my best to locate it it seems like it’s the antlers. The fear is it is the degreasing...

    Euro mount smells

    Hey everyone . I just got a European mount shipped back from the taxidermist . It looks pristine but still smells like a meat locker. I don’t think I see any residual meat on it (again looks pristine) but I’m thinking that it could perhaps just be the antlers that are smelling. What can I do to...

    What cartridge for first rifle build?

    Why can’t you buy a savage and just have a carbon barrel put on it? In the caliber of your choosing. You are right that the 270 WSM is ballistically better than 270 win. If getting a savage ultralight though could get 280 AI with a carbon barrel for $1400z Also I think the 300 wsm barrel would...

    Help with choosing components for new 300

    That’s a synthetic stock? At least over the internet McMillian did a good job making it look like a high end wood job.

    Help with choosing components for new 300

    IRRC a 3B in krieger is the same contour weatherby uses on the accumarks that weigh in at 8.25 lbs unscoped. Thats on heavy weatherby 9 lug, without carbon stock and without deep flutes and a 26”. could definitely shave some weight in those places and have them as wind gypsy said run the lowest...

    Help with choosing components for new 300

    also on twist, look up the bullets you are considering on manufacture website. For Hammer for example can only shoot a 180 with a 10 twist but with a lead core bullet like Berger I think they list up to 215 grain.

    Trying to hunt with an infant

    What’s killing me right now is the fact I work out of town 7 -10 days in a row then have a travel day each way. Wife is finishing up her medical training so working 50-70 hours a week. Makes it hard to justify getting away. Almost had a catastrophic situation when she told me I couldn’t go on my...

    Anyone here switch careers into nursing?

    Absolutely agree, if you do not have family commitments (kids) then traveling is the way to go if you like to hunt and fish. Can minimize costs and pick your home base which could consist of a storage shed and small apartment then everything’s covered as far as when you travel to go to work...
