    The new toy finally arrived.

    It took about 20 weeks from ordering from the dealer to arriving at the dealer. Longer than expected, but well worth it. I had it out again today testing loads. I was able to shoot a couple of groups ranging from .5 to .75 inch with 130 BTs over 7828ssc. I have not weighed it. But guessing...

    The new toy finally arrived.

    My Montana Rifle Co. X2 came home on Friday. Left hand 270 wsm. First impressions is super high quality, fit and finish is top notch. Action is smooth and even feeds the short fat WSM very smooth from the mag. I gave it a good cleaning and mounted a VX-6 3-18x on it. I ended up getting the...

    Hunting pants - tall 36' inseam

    You may want to try some Marmot Scree pants in the long version. I'm 34" inseam and there long on me. They are very similar to sitka timberline pants without the kneepads.

    Hit up the outdoor rec center at your college. For sure you can rent high end camping gear and maybe optics for super cheap. Then head up camping and hiking. Spend as much time a possible watching the animals.

    x-bolt or savage 270wsm issue

    Although I'm a lefty with a LH gun I have the same issue with the general stock fit and eye alignment on my x-bolt. wllm1313 has some good advice. I have put Boyds on two of my Tikkas and love them. They drop right in with no work at all. I did glass bed them myself, which was super easy...

    Montana License question

    I'm guessing it is not showing up yet cause you havent drawn the big game combo yet. Mine shows the only application and the hungers for hunger donation. I've always just got my bowhunting tag later after the draw was done.

    Wyoming Draw Question

    Thinking about picking up a Region C tag to have in my pocket for the fall but don't want to burn my points. I was looking at the 2015 draw and in the special draw there were like 400+ tags not issued. So my question is do the tags then go to the left over sales? Or in simpler terms was there...

    Lets talk 300WSM bullets

    180 AB. The Tikka likes them Elk do not. I ended up with 76 gr of Magpro. I couldn't get over 2900 with 4350 or 4831. Brass is hard to find unless you want to drop and arm and a leg on Nosler. I got lucky and walked into a Fleet Farm this winter and they had 270 wsm and 300 wsm Win brass 3...

    MT NR Big game Combo now over $1,000

    I look at it this way. I spent 21days in MT last fall chasing elk and deer. That is about $48/ day. 4th elk season in CO was 5 days or $120/day. So that's like 4 time the adventure and twice the tags for less than half the price per day. At least that's what I tell the wife......

    Hornady Brass

    I've been running hornady brass in my 2506. It appears to be as good if not better as winchester brass so far. I've only reloaded the brass twice now so I can't comment on longevity.

    Boot question?
