    WYGF March 18 updated proposals

    Could you clarify what counts as access? I think they can allow very limited access (not advertised or public) and still count it. Am I wrong? I know I've called landowners listed on the G&F website as allowing access only to be told gruffly that they don't need any hunters. So did they...

    Bergara Ridge. It's 7.7 lbs, but otherwise it meets your specs.

    Did USSR (Eastern Bloc) Produce Solid Steel Bullet Ammo?

    I've done materials testing on the 7.64x54R. The round of interest had a mild steel core (not technically armor-piercing since the steel isn't hardened). Around the steel core is a lead filler. The jacket was steel with a thin copper coating. I shot quite a few rounds through a Mosin-Nagant in...

    Deer - lets see em

    My youngest son's (10 yrs old) first big game animal! Killed this whitetail in Texas today. 70 yards. Double-lung with a 223 shooting 55 gr Barnes TSX. Saw no deer on the first day. This was the first and only deer we saw on the second day. Proud of his shooting and perseverance!

    Elk .... Let's see them!!!

    First elk for both my boys (12 & 13). Belly crawled to top of a ridge with a herd of 200+ across the draw. Couldn't get any closer than 325 yards. When both boys had their crosshairs on the cow they wanted, I counted down 3, 2, 1, shoot. They shot simultaneously and dropped their cows 50 yards...

    Need tripod to hold rifle for my son

    Not sure why you need a tripod. I had to take my son out this year after he broke his arm playing football. Harris bipod on my 6.5 CM worked very well. Dropped a nice antelope at 250 yds with one shot shooting one-armed. I brought a bog pod with me, but since I was having to carry the rifle too...

    Why do you like your gaiters?

    Kuiu gaiters won't fit around big calves...Kennetrek all the way.

    Youth hunting frustrations

    Take them antelope hunting. Lots of action, high chance of success, manageable terrain, and (usually) good weather.

    'Yotes: What to do with carcusses when pelts have little value?

    Eagles will too--at least the coyotes at my place.

    Deer - lets see em

    My 11-yr old just killed his first mule deer and Wyoming deer today. It's an early birthday present for him...he turns 12 tomorrow. He insisted on gutting it himself with no rubber gloves then spent the whole ride home hanging his hands out the window hoping the people he passed would notice his...
