I also just checked CPW website and my bear and pronghorn are now “accepted” status instead of “entered”.
If you what to know which hunt codes you pulled, each species is starting to switch over.
Might be a day or two for deer and elk.
Dang, I’m not sure how many points per species you burned. But, it sure feels like it’s a good time to get out of the creep game. Moose especially. I’m jealous
I, on the other hand, ended up with all 2nd choices and still climbing the points ladder. Next year might be a cut and run if I can get...
I called CPW to confirm this schedule. Straight from the horses mouth.
The order goes:
-Moose - Monday
-Deer and Elk - Drawn Together - Tues or Wednesday
-Bear - Thursday
-Antelope - Friday
Deer and elk are the two species drawn together because of concurrent seasons. At least that is what I...
I’m getting this a little late and I have to say the the advice given in this thread is pretty right on.
I live near Purgatory ski resort and have hunted the weminuche extensively.
My only other advice would be to look into a drop camp or even a outfit for your first trip.
As a guide I treated...

SO, a point of clarification. I missed one thing = 8391 was the initial sum of unique applicants once the draw program started. That number increased throughout the data collection and processing phase. When the process was completed it finalized at 245,551. I mistook what the gentleman said...
Hey Bill,
I agree with you. I’m sure there is an explanation beyond what they projected on the computer screen and displayed to the general public. So, In a couple of hours, I will get to work and screen shot what they did display.
Then let’s huddle and see what we can come up with.
Thanks for...
I opened the youtube link on my 2nd screen in the office. Watched until they started the draw program process (10 mins) and then they left the room. Then I forgot about it.
About two hours later they walked back on screen suddenly and scared the s(*t out of me.
Then the poor deputy attorney on...
You didn’t.
There are bases on it now. I’m not sure what they are but that can be determined.
What’s really gonna get people fired up is that I have industry discount with Nikon. That makes their optics very cheap.
Not saying it’s my first choice, but price for optics will be my limiting factor...
Thanks Slate. Rifle is already on it's way.
And No Harley, I will post some pics when I get this project started. So happy to start a new project.
This is my first "real" rifle that is not an entry level over-the-counter gun.
I put most of my money into archery gear for the last 15 years or so...
So, credit cards post after the results are emailed? Thanks.
I have been checking my pending CC transactions all morning.
I better put down the jelly doughnut and step away from my keyboard. Maybe go for a run and keep training for the awarded tag I'm gonna get on Friday!
Is there a backdoor...
Copy that.
I'm just a fan of the Dakota 97 action which is what the Mato action is based on. I believe Beretta assembled a version with different recoil lugs, but they seem to work just as well as if assembled by Dakota.
I also like a Mauser claw extractor design and 3 position wing safety. I...
Thanks guys.
I knew it was a long chance with trying to find someone who has actually shot or even own one of these.
I came to terms with the man and looks like I will see if I “like” this gun or not.
I feel like I’m about to take my first journey into handloading as well.
I am very happy to...
Thanks a very good point.
During my reasearch looking up this gun, I found exactly what you are saying.
Meaning, as a burgeoning collector, I will probably always find someone who will want to buy this gun since it has a contentious past.
I figured if they traditionally shot really well, I would...
Good question. I’m trying to get that info today.
What twist would you consider - 10:1?
I’m a new rifle guy (bow hunter for years)
So I’m not totally sure what’s the most acceptable for accuracy.
Thanks for helping me out, I’m learning
