Poll: Rifle Caliber for Western Hunting
Been looking at 7 SAUM, one of the gunsmiths I'm working with recommended. Thanks! -
Poll: Rifle Caliber for Western Hunting
Point well taken and a common point between the two. Never any concern with the 6.5 hitting larger animals with thick fur at distance? -
Poll: Rifle Caliber for Western Hunting
A lot of 50/50 sentiment regarding this choice across the internet. And for whatever it's worth, this isn't because I've struggled with a 6.5. -

Poll: Rifle Caliber for Western Hunting
Hey everyone. Interested in Hunttalk's preference here. Some context for your vote: I live in Montana and hunt everything from Pronghorn to Elk. I like the accuracy and kinetic energy retention of the PRC, but I like the 200gr bullet option for the WSM (~147gr for the PRC). I have extensive... -

Looking for pack-out services in western Montana
Yeah I mean that's always been the game and we will continue to do so. As those miles add up, calling someone on the garmin to come get a couple of elk sure would be nice! -
Looking for pack-out services in western Montana
Sorry about that. Any outfitter based in the triangle of Missoula, Bozeman, and Idaho Falls should be within reasonable range. Thanks. -
Looking for pack-out services in western Montana
Hey folks. Hunting plans are expanding to bigger and tougher country every year. We shot and packed a cow out of one of our spots last fall, and even that was pretty brutal. As we go deeper, we want to explore our options for hiring outfitters/packers to come get our animals. We do not need... -

Ideal Wolf Hunting Dates for a Winter Trip?
Hey folks. I am making a dedicated offer for a Wolf (or two) this winter. Cabin rental in NW Montana for 4-5 days. I know the area well, and have been close to killing a Wolf a couple of times before. My question for you guys - is there an ideal time period you would look to book from January 1...- daltrix99

Bow hunter fatally shot in San Juan National Forest
My best friend just finished up a hunt in an adjacent unit to this. He said the woods were absolutely crawling with hunters like he had never seen before, and unfortunately this tragedy did not surprise him.- daltrix99

Somewhere Global Hotspot device (vs Garmin inReach or Soleo)
Hey folks - has anyone used this? https://www.somewearlabs.com/global-hotspot I had never heard of it until Ryan Callaghan recently talked about using it this year while hunting. We have both a full size inReach and a mini. Both work fine, but the full size is a little clunky, and the mini...- daltrix99

Elk .... Let's see them!!!
Dropped a cow on the Idaho opener a couple of weekends ago. We were at 10k feet and drowning in cows, but were too early for antlers despite a *lot* of glassing. We know where they hole up in the summer, but man is it tough to get on them in there if they aren’t interested in the cows yet. Some... -
Idaho OTC tags today
I got my elk and deer tags, but my best friend and hunting partner did not get his elk tag. I logged in a few minutes after him, and was lucky to land with only 800 people ahead of me in line. He was behind over 3000 people! Does anyone know if wifi/internet connection speed plays a role in...- daltrix99

Annual PA donation....
Does anyone know anyone who has drawn? Is the archery tag easier to draw? I have not been able to find a specific odds breakdown between the seasons - only the antlered vs either sex. -
Swarovski pricing
I have talked to them about this when making purchasing decisions, because some sort of a pro deal exists with Zeiss, Vortex, and Leupold. Swaro told me they do not offer any, and work exclusively through their dealers, who can offer discounts of their own (independent of Swaro). Your best bet...
