    Chamber Empty or Loaded

    I will chamber a round when I am in stand/blind situations. I also chamber a round when I am actively staking an animal. At all other times during a hunt, my rifle will be unloaded. If anyone I am hunting with is uncomfortable with that, I will abstain from chambering a round until the final...

    Planning for an Eastern Montana mule deer hunt

    As someone who moved from Wisconsin to Eastern Montana, I promise you hunting public land here for mature representative bucks either white tail or mule deer isn't even remotely close to easy compared to Wisconsin white tail hunting. If your goal is to come out here, kill a dink buck or a doe to...

    Conditioning or Sick in the head - Sheep

    Wretched things. Possibly more addicting than any drugs, and almost certainly more expensive. I can only hope that we who are already addicted are able to suffer alone, and those who aren't, stay away....

    Conditioning or Sick in the head - Sheep

    I got off work a few hours early this afternoon and decided to go for a hike and actually earn my beer for once. So I ran home and grabbed a newer pair of boots that I'm still breaking in. For the last month, I had been wanting to hike up into some sheep wintering grounds and look for a deadhead...

    It’s about time, Montana.

    The last year in Montana was the 2019/2020 hunting season, that's what I remember. When I say plastic I'm referring to the yellow tags that were printed on that special "paper".

    It’s about time, Montana.

    I don't know about my optimism for the app. However, if the e tag and validation of tags work as well as other systems I have used like Wisconsin's, this is a great step in the right direction. Especially in terms of reporting harvest, which need to be mandatory for big game. The fact that...

    New to Montana's Type 1 Block Management Area

    All of the type 1 BMAs that I have hunted have required that you sign in at a sign-in box. Despite living near Plains a few years ago, I have not hunted any region 1 or 2 BMAs so the procedures may be different than the other 5. Most or all BMAs are now closed for the season in Montana, once...

    150 grain Hornady GMX for 7mm-08

    MT Region7 Whitetail doe

    The deer in southeast Montana are getting hammered by EHD right now. Just something to consider, I plan on leaving my region 7 doe tag unfilled this year. That being said, as a general rule, if you can find trees near ag fields in SE Montana you will find whitetail.

    150 grain Hornady GMX for 7mm-08

    This rifle is just a basic Tikka with the exception of a long action bolt stop and long action mag. So I am squeezing some extra case capacity and velocity out of the 7mm-08 with a longer COAL. This gun has always been fast and shoots better groups in the higher velocities. I should add, some...

    150 grain Hornady GMX for 7mm-08

    I just worked up a great shooting load for my 7mm-08 with some 150-grain GMXs. They are going 2790 fps, which gets me to 2100 fps and 1500 ftlb at 400 yards. I am hoping to use this load for deer and elk this fall to replace the 162-grain eldx. I had been using the eldx for two years and I am...
