Colorado Draw Extended
Its all about that money. They are raking in the cash with this draw, and didn't want it to stop. I am surprised they didn't extend it a week or two.- Troy R

Rifle upgrade! Tikka T3x
Sweet scope. I plan on getting the same scope for my new Weatherby as soon as my Leupold VX-3i cds zl 4.5x14-40 I have listed on ebay sells. I would just use it but it is in a burnt bronze cerekote which won't match my new rifle barrel. I can't wait to get mine. -

I'm not buying points for Colorado anymore, tell me I'm wrong.
If I have 5 points and put in for a unit that only takes 3 points to draw do I lose all 5 of my points or just 3?- Troy R

Rifle upgrade! Tikka T3x
I bought a Tikka T3x 30-06 last May for elk season, but ended up not being impressed. I am left handed so I went with the Tikka because of the left handed model. I ended up using something different in Colorado, and the Tikka is just collecting dust now. Actually tried to trade it in at... -

Left Handed Rifles
I am looking to buy a new rifle for elk hunting. I am looking for a good quality bolt action rifle that is left handed. Seems like I am going to end up with a Browning X-bolt or a Tikka T3x. Curious if anyone has any insight on either of those two rifles or if any left hand hunter have found a...
