    15x Binos vs Spotting scope

    I'm guessing you have never used 12-15x binos to find deer in AZ? @Trekker308 skip over the BX-5's and check out some 15x meoptas. I've seem them as low as $1k used and they are a lot of glass for the money. I have the 12x50s and have been very happy with them.

    FWP Fisheries Director Ousted?

    ‘Experienced experts fluent in science and policy have been replaced by inexperienced young staffers who, without mentors, can be easily controlled and silenced’ I think this sentence from the article hits the nail on the head. New employees and those fearful for their jobs are easily...

    I just came here to post this. I hope a lot more comes out on how the department has been treating employees

    Guidance on choosing a new barrel or new rifle

    I would skip the carbon and go straight steel. A lot of good barrels out there now. Could go the prefit route or buy a blank and have it threaded/chambered. Either way you should come in under $700

    Elk Caliber and Bullet Choice - 2024

    Although I've never used it personally, the 147 has a reputation of being a great killing bullet.

    Rimfire Rifle Recommendations

    Haha not a Rokslide reference. Seems equally as hard for some people to recognize the positive aspects of them

    Rimfire Rifle Recommendations

    Don’t get your feelers hurt. It’s a common joke in the rifle space. Those that shoot suppressed are civilized, those that don’t are uncivilized

    Rimfire Rifle Recommendations

    It’s a good thing nobody asked you to. We all know you’re uncivilized and plan to stay that way. And they’re way cheaper than centerfire suppressors fyi

    Rimfire Rifle Recommendations

    That’s what I figured. Rimfire is a totally different animal. With subs a 22 lr is ‘movie quiet’.

    I’m assuming you’ve never shot one on a rimfire?

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Pretty easy to get there when you look at some of the decisions that have been made. A lot of money to be made on elk...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I'd agree with that. Sometimes I go down the conspiracy theory rabbit hole of what the end game is for FWP or who is currently controlling some of their decisions. Has anyone heard of how the department has been treating the bios lately? The department fought tooth and nail against any kind of...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I’d be ecstatic if it went back to how it was when I first saw it in 2009. I can’t imagine how it was in the 80’s

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Would anyone be in favor of an elk tag system that mimics ID's system with the A and B tags? I think it's an idea that would help with crowding issues and would give FWP a better idea of how much pressure is actually put on each season. It would be 'lost opportunity' but I think it would help...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    As a fellow bowhunter I guess I just don't see it as a huge loss. Would it be more palatable if season started sept 1st and went into the first week of October?

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I can get on board with a lot of what you mentioned. I don't really agree that August and early september are 'too hot' though. There could definitely be some advantages to starting the season in August. I think something to keep in mind is that this isn't just about archery hunters. This...
