I have shot my savage 110 for 30+ years and it is the most accurate rifle I own. I use 36 grains of IMR 4895 pushing a 100 gr. Hornady interlock bullet. Put it in the boiler plate, watch them go 50 yds max and go pick them up. Killed an antelope at 419 yds that maybe went 100 yds. Great...
It is SB 299 not 229 and was heard by the Senate Judiciary committee which most likely means it will be heard by the House Judiciary Committee. Here is a link you can use to email the whole committee or individuals:

Hope that helps.

Do you have a copy of the legal Memorandum written by Goetz Law Firm specific to this bill? If not, you can find it at www.montanasportsmenalliance.com under 2013 legislature. His statement to me was that the bill had the wrong sponsor. Washburn told me in the fall that we needed a bill...
Eric
you stated "last time we attempted to work w/ one we were told...and I quote "you are not wanted here", and "we are not ready to talk w/ the outfitters". Since I am the one Mac was referring to at least get it right. That was a private meeting and Mac had not been invited. He was allowed...
It makes it very hard to build a relationship when only one side wants the relationship. I think most f us oare not anti outfitter or anti landowner but are, as Randy says, pro resident sportsmen. The bills that have come out this session are by and large, anti FWP and anti sportsmen. I was...
I will see if the fellow who did the corner crossing mapping can do this overlay.
Also, it should be noted that there are three bills moving forward with MOGA support.
SB 260 which would give nonresidents up to 35% of the tags to hunt large predators...

Our friend, Rep. Bill Harris, the outfitter has a bill moving forward LC 1939 that would effectively eliminate the ability to use a helicopter to access federal land!!
If anyone wants the map in pdf format or larger version that would not fit on this blog, email me at [email protected]
Fin-that's the way I understand it as well. No sense in keeping records, now if I could only get the State Agency that regulates my business to do away with all those cumbersome things they require to protect the public.
Also, I understand that HB 511 went down in flames today. It would have...
Your presence will show the legislators your thoughts on HB 235 and that sportsmen are a tremendous voting bloc when organized. Though we do not get to speak at the House hearing on the motion, just by being in the Gallery with our orange vests will speak volumes.
Try to be there by noon.
MOGA will be hard pressed to explain their attack on Randy and their attempt to intimidate RMEF. Will be joining RMEF tomorrow and thanking them for their support.
As long as Minard is associated with MOGA there will be no working with them. Don't they know it is not wise to get Big Fin riled...
Well said Big Fin!! As a hunter who does not want to break the law, corner crossing is not currently an option.
See everyone in Helena tomorrow the 18th at 12 noon. Wear your orange vest.
This rally is not just about corner crossing. It is time we sent our legislators a message that hunters and anglers are a powerful voting bloc and that we want our concerns addressed!! To the 95+% of the hunters/anglers who normally sit on the sidelines, it is time to get off your butts and do...
What would you think if we could open up 866,000 acres to access with no cost to the state or public???
That is the amount of acreage that will be opened up in Montana if the corner crossing bill passes!!!
Very interesting info going back and forth. What would everyone think if we could open up 866,000 acres at no cost to the state or public???
That is the amount of acreage that would be opened up in Montana if the corner crossing bill passes!!!
The sponsor has asked that we use the online email system for individual members, not by committee.
Here is a link to the House roster http://leg.mt.gov/css/sessions/63rd/roster.asp?HouseID=1&SessionID=107
It is imperative that we contact every Republican member of the House and you should...
The easiest way to get the emails out is to email the 16 House Committees and all 100 House members will receive it. They may get it 2-3 times but that is ok too.
Here is the link to the online email system again http://leg.mt.gov/css/Sessions/63rd/legwebmessage.asp
The rally time has been changed to 2 pm on the North side of the Capital on the 18th. The lady at General Services had missed a previously scheduled rally for 10:30 on the

We are asking that everyone arrive by 12:15 so that they can be in the House Gallery for the start of the House...
