    Huge mule deer where to start

    If a 40" mule deer is truly your goal, then I would drop what you are doing, spend 8 years in school to become a doctor, work like a dog for the next 40, then buy the Henry's auction tag and hire Doyle Moss's great grandson. Short of that, your goals are about as realistic as dating Kate Upton.

    Bundys have been aquitted in Oregon.

    Hell no! If they had Clinton's team, they never would have been charged in the first place. They had to settle for Johnnie Cochran and win the old fashioned way.

    New Powder?

    If you can hang on for a little bit more, I've started to see Big Game reappear. No Hunter yet, but BG is getting back on the shelves. That aside, H4350 is pretty close in burn rate.

    Either sex: still needs proof of sex!

    Every once in a while you meet a LEO who likes to play commando. Sounds like you found one.

    Lightweight rifle build

    I wouldn't start a LW rifle build with a Savage. Your re-stocking options are much fewer than a Remington 700. I think you can find a McMillian Edge for most of the Savage actions, but you'll be plunking down $600 or so for it. Other rifles like 700's and 70's have the options of Bansner...

    Elk and Snow

    +1 By the time it pushed them all out of the mountains, you won't even be able to get a vehicle up to many of the NF access points.

    Grizzly Bear encounter- heads up for Centennials in SW MT

    I understand closing an area after a mauling. But a close encounter? BS in my book. Post a cautionary sign and let people go in.

    Whats Your Back country Fly Rig

    I would get a 9' 4 or 5wt rod that breaks down into 4 pieces. You could go 8'6" if you want, but no shorter. Lots of guys will tell you to get a 2 or 3 weight or a shorter rod. For all-around use, they are wrong. For example, at backcountry lakes you will often be fishing from shore and need...

    Grizzly Bear on Highway 83 Seeley Lake MT

    At the rate they are going, I would bet we have permanent resident bears in the breaks within 10 years. They've moved out quite a bit in the last few. Verified sightings along the Marias/Teton/Missouri rivers out to the Ft. Benton area. Verified grizzlies in the Sweetgrass Hills. I think...

    Grizzly Bear on Highway 83 Seeley Lake MT

    It's got nothing to do with "being king." I'm still "king" with my Marlin 45-70 guide gun shooting Buffalo Bore ammunition. But not having to fight for the throne is appealing.

    Load for your 300 Weatherby

    7828 and any bullet you want from 150-180 grains, Retumbo for the 200's. I've tested several others, but none have matched both the accuracy and velocity of 7828.

    Grizzly Bear on Highway 83 Seeley Lake MT

    Most people I talk to about it aren't upset that bears exist. But their expansion bothers them. And really, I can see that. It is nice to be able to camp/hunt/fish in places where you don't have to worry about bears. That said, their presence never keeps me from recreating in bear country...

    Griz attack

    Anytime I hear someone suggest that an animal might have more right to be outdoors than I, I figure they are only a bong hit or two from joining PETA.

    Ruger Hawkeye/M77 300wm.

    To answer the OP, take a look at H4350, H4831, and RL-22 for a start.

    Ruger Hawkeye/M77 300wm.

    Are you sure it was 3031? That is not a common 300 WM powder. I'd be surprised if you could even find load data for it.
