    2024 New Mexico Draw Results

    "Denial Season" is a summbitch. I also struck out in AZ and NM...again. Fingers crossed on CO! Congrats to those that were luckier than me, though.

    Boulder Hunting Ban

    I live in Boulder...this is an accurate statement. The drivers here are insane. I'll also say, not everyone here thinks they are a special snowflake, but there's a whole lot that do.

    Reloading manual

    I agree with others. Get a manual. I have the Hornady and Berger, and reference them all the time. Not just for load data...there's actually great info in those things if you read them. I cross reference with a lot of the free stuff, too (Nosler, Hodgdon, etc.)

    Component Availability

    For those that may have a 7 mag (or something else) that really likes RL-22, it's currently in stock at Powder Valley.

    GoHunt vs. OnX

    That's true, I do like that. I'll likely keep paying for both services. Each have great features.

    GoHunt vs. OnX

    Same here. OnX for mapping, and GoHunt for draw odds and the filtering feature. For me, the OnX mapping and its features is top-notch. OnX appears to be getting better with their draw odds and unit profiles as well. It's becoming more and more clear to me that the only reason I still have a...

    Unit 551 CO

    I would suspect either a migration corridor, or a serious case of peyronie's disease...

    AZ unit 27 late elk? Just got a call

    Excellent unit. I'd take it in a heartbeat as well.

    Bergara Wilderness HMR issue

    I had a similar issue, and loose action screws were the culprit. After torqueing them to spec, the rifle shot lights-out again. Quite possible you've checked that already, but if not, worth giving it a look :)

    Hunting Camp/Wall Tent Questions

    Might consider a Jumping Jack trailer/pop-up canvas tent. You'd be towing something, which might not appeal to you, but you barely feel it back there. Plus, you can take the tent out of it and use it as a utility trailer. Super easy setup and takedown. Throw a Mr. Buddy heater in there and...

    Bull back from the taxi

    Wow, both you and the taxidermist did excellent work!

    Obscure go to band

    The Nude Party Maybe not new to others, but new to me. I'm about 5 years late in discovering them, as is tradition. Think "Exile on Main Street"-era Rolling Stones, mixed with Neil Young, mixed with The Beatles, mixed with a modern "indie" sound. That might sound weird, but with a name like...

    28 Nosler Opinions

    Also not to derail, but if anyone is desperate for 7 RUM brass, the Scheels in Johnstown, CO has had ADG 7 RUM brass on the shelf for a couple months. Even if you don't live anywhere near there, it looks like you can change your "local store" to that location and it's available on the website...

    Pressure sign/load development question

    @Mthuntr & @winmag - thanks. I think deep down I knew they were a little hot and just didn't want it to be true when I saw the group sizes shrinking. It's' funny, I'm looking at the case now in my hand and looking at the picture, and the picture might make it look a little worse...but I agree...
