“I don’t want you hunting this outfit.”
I get the rugged individualism and all but I am continually surprised that western states law enforcement and/or the fed govt do seem so much weaker on some issues there than they do east of the Mississippi. Wide open spaces must dilute the ability to project power, and some lone individuals...- Bullshot

“I don’t want you hunting this outfit.”
Once again like whack-a-mole with the flagrant abuses of our public lands. I think, as a group, we need advocacy organizations (so support one or more) to take up these fights one by one. Leaving cattle on grazing leases after deadlines are up should be a pretty open and shut civil case, easy to...- Bullshot

Rut hunt CO
Please do not plan to bugle at all on public in Colorado. Not needed, actually often counter productive. -

It wasn't attempted theft. It was theft. That makes him a thief.- Bullshot

“I don’t want you hunting this outfit.”
This particular, but I doubt all too rare, ADJACENT landowner entitlement is out of control. He knew full well he was committing premeditated theft and harassment and DID NOT CARE. This is no grey area, no debate, no complicated technical argument, no competing versions of truth. No LE or court...- Bullshot

Yellowstone wolf incident
shb, that's a relief! BTW we once had a real nice PM convo about Wyoming fishing. Guess we should stick to that. Have a nice weekend.- Bullshot

Yellowstone wolf incident
Exactly. Regardless of what the guy was doing, even before the video started, those wolves could have run as fast and far away as they wanted, but they grouped up and ran at him, exactly as they would in any probing/predatory attack. When he got in a vulnerable dip they picked up speed, and...- Bullshot

Yellowstone wolf incident
https://www.mirror.co.uk/news/world-news/student-torn-apart-wolves-savage-36266112.amp Also, tough read in this official report from the woman in Alaska, but at one point they found her mittens along the path she ran while being attacked. The thumb of one mitten was "torn off", (page 10) and...- Bullshot

Yellowstone wolf incident
I posted an interesting video of a pack of wolves decisively loping after a man into a ravine at close range and used a common turn of phrase, and instead of comment on the video you comment on that? Next time a pack runs after you, I'll trust you are debating semantics of whether in an animal...- Bullshot

Yellowstone wolf incident
This article talks about a man being cited for spraying wolves (looks like pepper spray) but the video raised a whole lotta other questions about wolves intent, lack of fear, etc. His actions are stupid but I'm wondering if the pepper(?) spray may have saved him from being torn to shreds...- Bullshot

What is acceptable accuracy in your opinion
1 MOE (Margin of Error) seems to work. It varies on the weapon, weather, wind, light, angle, etc. More about knowing your limits than knowing your MOA. How else would you explain so many misses on game by otherwise excellent shots... Seems a lot of people shoot much farther than their MOE.- Bullshot

Remington 700 Classic in 300 WBY FS
This is a great DEAL for someone. These are nice rifles. Rem took a little extra care in building them as they were intended to be good shooters as well as collectible even at the time. Elk killer in 300 Wby! I have two classics. Love the stocks.- Bullshot

How to White tail
If I had access to decent new ground for whitetail, I would 100% be confident I could go out in late morning, search around, and find a good spot to sit or place a stand by early afternoon, several hours before the magic happens. You should be fine. Unlike more open country hunting for elk or... -
What would you recommend?
Barnett makes some affordable solid xbows. A mechanical like a Rage hypodermic (i like the +p version for more sure penetration) will handle deer with authority. There are definitely fewer things you need to buy for crossbow hunting than normal archery. Still, bolts, broadheads, xbow case, rail...
