    Need slim trim scope ideas for new 7mag

    Melvin sold NULA to Wilson Combat earlier this year so you may want to verify that they're still working on the Colt Lite Rifles.

    Swarovski ATC/STC Spotting Scope

    It looks like Swarovski just released a couple new 17-40×56 spotters that look pretty appealing for a mountain hunter. I've already got a Kowa TSN-553 as well as a Swarovski ATX 65/95, but would consider upgrading the Kowa if there is a real world performance difference between the two. I know...

    Antelope...Lets See Them!!!

    Got it done this morning in New Mexico. Very few animals in the unit which sounds like it's out of the norm.

    Using 4 Season Tent in August

    Do they make a mesh insert for that one? I know they do for some of their tents.

    New Barrel Break In

    I clean after every shot for the first 10 then after every other for the next 10. I've done a ton of barrels this way and almost every time after 7 or 8 shots you start to see a really significant change in the amount of fouling. It does seem to have a relatively small effect on accuracy.

    How much time spent in a unit

    Stick with a unit unless you have a reason to leave apart from not seeing elk. You've already done the work on eliminating some of the places elk aren't. Why go to a new unit and start over?

    Leica, Steiner, & Leupold Binos

    Leupold doesn't currently make any binos in the U.S. and I believe they've always imported all of their glass for all their optics.

    Over Crowding in Montana Archery Elk

    IMO the people who tend to complain about crowding tend to be people who don't want to put the work in or venture too far from the truck. In a typical archery season I'll typically put in 15-20 days and can count on one hand the number of other hunters I run into. If you're expecting to shoot...

    Generosity to non-residents

    Tags should be issued to meet management goals, not popularity contests. If there's a management reason to get rid of B tags that's one thing, getting rid of them for the sake of getting rid of them is asinine.

    Who deserves a tag?

    I'd love to see nothing but random draws across the board with states setting the resident/NR ratio. 90% resident seems pretty fair in my book. Apart from things like governors tags and supertags I'd leave it right there if it were up to me. Nobody gets preferential treatment outside of their...

    I drew NR rifle antelope in a pretty decent unit. That should be a fun hunt.

    Ammoseek Question

    There are some scammers that will pop up on ammoseek sometimes but the bigger issue is the price gouges. Not so much the kind that are asking $80 for a brick of primers but the ones that will ask 2 to 3 times that. I really wish ammoseek wouldn't give these guys a platform for this.

    Colorado Sheep And Goat draw

    It looks like I drew more goat and sheep points this year. So I've got that going for me, which is nice.

    Price drop***Kowa TSN-553

    I only grab the Kowa when there's a ton of vertical in the forecast and low light performance isn't a top priority. You're giving up a little performance with the Kowa, buy it isn't a lot and saves nearly 2 lbs compared to my Swaro 65. If you're primarily using it for the purpose of determining...
