    Stuck Brass

    Never had it happen. I doubt it unless the brass is over annealed.

    Rangefinding binoculars

    If you are willing to fork out the $ for Swaro EL Range you might look at the Leica Govid Pro. They are a better RF than the -R.

    Stuck Brass

    Carbon ring, temp sensitivity or dissimilar metal weld (bullets welding to brass... it's a thing and I have experienced it) are the three top culprits to look at. To avoid bullet weld, if you load ammo in advance like many do, load them a bit long (.003-.005 give or take) and at the beginning...

    In Montana NR Hunters secured over 85,000 hunting licences.

    Filling tags is only a small part of the equation. Competing with tens of thousands of other hunters reduces the serenity and enjoyment of hunting any more and pressures the animals, which forces them to private. Drawing a tag has become more and more competitive. Would you appreciate not...

    In Montana NR Hunters secured over 85,000 hunting licences.

    We do. We pay extraordinary real estate taxes, sales tax, buy our groceries and expensive gas here, buy our hunting gear, our houses, and our vehicles here. We frequent the retaurants and shops. Pay vehicles taxes here. I pay $67.00 for an elk tag, $57 for deer and antelope tags, pay app fees...

    I suspect Wyoming is similar. During season we see a dozen NR plates for every Res license plate.

    What does this buck score?

    You will have to send me a pin so I can go look at him and get a better guesstimate. 😁

    Young Bird Dog (hopefully)

    For upland, GSP all the way. I have had phenominal GSP pheasant dogs and had them water retrieve downed pheasants at times. I have had very calm GSPs that were hunting machines and I have had high strung GSPs that were great hunters... but the calms ones are easier to work with during and...

    What gender antelope WG&F home page

    During season bucks will have some form of horn growth and black cheek patches. I have killed does with horns... one with probably close to 5" horns... but they don't have the black patch. It is pretty definitive.

    Rest In Peace Ranger

    I lost one about three months ago and still shed a tear about once a week. What gifts they are. Loving, loyal, goofballs... always there for you. Sorry for your loss.

    Spend my money on a chronograph

    Supposedly they (Garmin) have it programmed to figure the velocity at the muzzle, taking into account that the unit reads at approx forty yards. All the more reason to verify velocity and bc at distance.

    Spend my money on a chronograph

    I read forty yards in a test some guys performed. They were actually setting it up downrange at various yardages to verify their velocities at distance also.

    Project 2025 and Conservation

    No doubt. The USA is not a problem until you throw in the immigration numbers. We just have more wealth thus more people traveling to hunt and applying for tags.🥴 Third world countries: Africa, India, etc really multiply, lol. China too.

    Spend my money on a chronograph

    I have had (and still do) have the strap on and the canopy style chronos. I bought a Garmin Xero this year and would do it again in a heartbeat. I would sell a gun to get one if I had to! So simple to use. So small and light. It has never missed a reading. I take it out of the box, set it...

    Help which rifle to buy

    I have three X-bolts that are sub-1/2" rifles every time I shoot them. I had two others but let them go as I didn't use those cartridges much. I had a Tikka that shot nearly as well. Both are fine rifles. Not sure what everybody is spouting about "aftermarket support" for X-bolts except maybe...

    First Wyoming Antelope Hunt

    There is ONE main road that goes through those units and connects the two besides the interstate, which does as well. I live minutes from there and have a buddy who ranches in those units. It is nothing to be sitting at his gate and counting 50-60 vehicles go by BEFORE DAYLIGHT during hunting...

    Project 2025 and Conservation

    All environments have a carrying capacity. You can have biologists come to your farm and tell you what it's capacity is for deer, elk, etc. (discounting invasive species like cattle and sheep). Agri will come out and tell you how many cow/calf pairs you can run by analyzing resources. Some...
