2020 begins! NM Oryx down!
It is absolutely not a slam dunk hunt. I've been out there several times and found Oryx with no trouble, but the instant shots are fired it's a whole new game.- Brentc

2020 begins! NM Oryx down!
The tags are difficult to draw. There are two 2-day hunts on McGregor. There are 50 total tags per hunt. 25 tags are at large, 25 are for active duty military. The first morning of the first hunt is best. The Oryx have watched a year full of vehicles drive by them on the road without any...- Brentc

2020 begins! NM Oryx down!
I got lucky enough to draw three tags in New Mexico this year and Oryx on McGregor training area was one of them. It was a two day hunt beginning January 11th. We spotted several Oryx on the first day. The first one was a shooter bull at 450 yards that spotted us as we spotted him and he didn't...- Brentc

Yup. That pretty much narrows it down to archery for a legitimate chance at drawing a NR tag. -
New Mexico Pronghorn - NR Unguided
I agree. Those counties are top notch, but they are only two of the six counties that have produced the 90+“ bucks that make up the top ten in New Mexico. Lincoln, Grant, Harding, and Otero are also in the group. Sierra has some beauties too. -
New Mexico Pronghorn - NR Unguided
True. Tags are hard to come by. I also agree about WY and CO unless you're after a booner. You could look over hundreds of bucks in WY and CO before you found a book worthy buck, at least in the areas available to hunt every year. In NM you could see a handful of booners in a few minutes of... -
New Mexico Pronghorn - NR Unguided
New Mexico Antelope tags are like gold. The trophy quality is insane! If you have aspirations of killing a booner buck and you don't have a lot of time to dedicate to a hunt, New Mexico is the place to go. -
What to expect from Leupold?
Who says vortex doesn't repair scopes? They've repaired everything I've sent back from binoculars to rifle scopes. I wish they'd send new replacements to me every time I sent something back. -

Always check your turret caps
I carry mine in the Gunbearer with the scope facing forward to keep the turrets from unwanted contact. I'm not sure if that would help you or not. -
Scope / base / rings for new rifle
You have to shave a little metal off one side of the base recoil lug to fit the front of the ejection port. -
Scope / base / rings for new rifle
Another good option if your concerned with weight is the Hawkins Precision LR Hybrid base/ring setup. They'll cut a couple ounces from a lightweight pic base and ring set. A set of Hawkins are right around 3.5 oz. A lightweight picatinny base will weigh 2 oz and a pair of lightweight rings...
