    Montana contemplates shooting more cows, less bulls

    WOW, Well, I am new to Hunt Talk. I truly didn't know MT is having these issues. Looks like I will need to look elsewhere for elk hunting. Just made 60 yrs old last month. I am in reasonably good health except for this diabetes I have, which appears to become an epidemic of serious proportions...

    Looking for shoulder season help in region 4

    well, so much in believing in the sanctity of elk hunting in the great state of Montana. Politics should never rule in anything, or is it nothing.......... Just starting out here in the forums.. Elk hunting dreams snuffed out as I realize the problems this great state has. So, why even bother...

    New guy needs help with buying a pack

    I just purchased a daypack from Tenzing. I know people who have Mystery Ranch and Eberlestock as well and are extremely pleased with any of these. The one rule of thought given me by many is research, research, and more research. Fit the pack to the functions it is required to perform. Don't...

    Canvas Tent Heat Without Local Firewood

    I read article and keyword here is "advises". Nowhere does it say "illegal" nor "against the law". Just saying, not trying to cause any trouble. Btw, I did have to put my glasses on to read it....

    I had a very similar problem with a steyr sbc pro hunter in 7mm REM MAG. I tried 3 different scopes, called the factory support line and got the torque specs on the action screws, checked for a bent barrel among other things. Being a handloader, I remembered my training on load development and...

    Has anybody here tried the ABLR on elk?

    The accubond are tough and accurate just like the partitions. Accuracy comes in when fine tuning the loads to your rifle. And what works great in one gun may or may not work great in another.. I found out the hard way..lol

    RL 23 Load Data

    Alliant does have limited reloading data on their website and I used it as a starting point for the load I use in my steyr 7 7mm rem mag. 65.3 grains of RL 23 results in about 3000fps with a 160gr Nosler accubond and half moa groups. As always start 5 to 10% below published data loads and work...

    New to site form South Dakota.

    I am new also. Just joined this month and know nothing about forums. I understand your feelings about starting this late in life. I am 60 years old but still feel like I am 30 years young. However, that doesn't negate the fact I have diabetes. I have dreamt all my life about going on a week long...
