    Hornady interlock

    I have used the 100 gr Hornady Interlock in my 243 for over 35 years on deer and antelope. It just makes the animal sick when they get hit. Seldom do they ever go over 50 yds. Killed an antelope with 1 shot at 419 yds. Don't tear up the meat either. Great bullet!!

    2015 Private lands Leased to Outfitters map

    I know I indicated that I would not repost on this thread, but out of the quagmire a possible solution has come to mind.

    Savage Model 11 Trophy Hunter XP

    Big fan of Savage rifles. One suggestion, re-mount the scope to insure that the screws have been tightened securely and set with lock-tite. I had one that after a few rounds the grouping kept getting broader. The screws were not tight. Did some research and found others who had the same problem.

    Savage model 111

    I own several savage rifles and love them. My favorite is my 7mm model 116 with the accu trigger and accu stock. The load I use is 63 gr of IMR 4831 topped by a 160 gr Nosler Partition bullet. Have used this load for 40 years and it has always worked for me, even have killed 2 moose with it...

    Very sad.....

    Knew both of them as well. Jen responded to an illegal elk killed I reported. Took her to the kill site and helped with the carcass. Seem like a nice lady. Known Joe for several years. Mental illness is so very difficult to understand. Scary stuff!!

    More Presidential discussion on public lands

    One thing that needs to be considered on the potential land grab is that if it does actually move forward, at some point in time it will likely end up in the United States Supreme Court. Who gets nominated and appointed could have a tremendous impact on the final decision regarding public lands...

    All should read this - Malheur

    An outstanding piece of writing that talks about the present but also provides a insight as to what the future may hold if the American public does not get heavily involved!

    MT Shoulder Season Public Comment

    The EMP states that those elk that live primarily on private land during the general season then those elk are NOT to be counted in the objective number. FWP has perpetuated the myth of over objective for many years in most of those units in the eastern half of the state. Check pages 55, 61-62...

    MT Shoulder Season Public Comment

    Just for the record, these shoulder seasons are not necessarily being proposed by the biologists, but instead, at times, by people above them, in either their region or perhaps even by Helena FWP.
