    Nevada - Is it Worth it?

    Getting back to the OP: I think Nevada is a long term state (no easy tags to be had by non residents), if you are in it for the long hall I would say yes, but not really if you are not. Case in point: with 21 non resi Elk points, my odds moved from 1.5% to 1.75% for drawing the tag i want. But...

    2023 Nevada Draw Results

    I have 10, so definitely more than 9.. Good luck, I think with 10 my odds are less than 1%.

    2023 Nevada Draw Results

    An elk tag would be a dream in NV, as a non resi with 20 points, my odds are a little less than 4%. I am hoping I draw before I am 65, so maybe in another 20 years? There is always a chance though (I am hopeful every year). If I were starting out with zero points I likely would not put in...

    HB0200 - Nonresident hunting licenses-application fees

    Supply and demand I guess. Someone mentioned that their explanation was to match what other states are charging, which just does not make sense, as it would make these tags some of the costliest tags in the west. They have the right to do what they want, but call it what it is, just taking...

    Nevada FCFS Virtually Dead for NRs

    I am bummed about this , but I get it (seems fair). There was a guy that was super obnoxious on multiple threads last year complaining about the non res (guess he got his way). Regarding CO, I still like this better than the CO system. I wish Colorado would do random tag drops like NV, instead...

    24" 30.06 with Threaded barrel?

    So that my 11 year old daughter can shoot it in the near future. That with reduced loads and it would kick like a .223.

    Ideas on Point Collecting/Point Creep

    I am with Randy with most of the ideas brought up. Specially with the (lose points if you pick up a returned tag or get a landowner tag) That would be so sweet in Colorado. I burning points as fast as I can. I just want to go hunt, tired of building points I may never be able to use. Like my...

    24" 30.06 with Threaded barrel?

    I have heard a few good things about the Bergara as well (but like you don't know much about them or have any experience). I have been reloading some TTSX loads (but yet to use on deer), cant wait to see how they do.

    24" 30.06 with Threaded barrel?

    Thanks for the response. I should have said a budget, and its ~1K as long as I don't want to be scope poor. The alpha looks amazing, but likely out of my budget range. I had realized the Weatherby vanguard models come in such configurations. Spent some time researching last night (this one...

    That's pretty!

    24" 30.06 with Threaded barrel?

    Thank you, That is a sweet looking rifle. I just prefer the 24. I guess under 300 yards the difference (22" vs. 24") would be marginable (180 grain bullet hitting an Elk in the boiler room would = a dead elk). I prefer 24" to 26" barrels for maximum velocity capability, and because for me, they...

    24" 30.06 with Threaded barrel?

    Anyone know if there is a rifle manufacturer that makes a 24" rifle with threaded barrel in 30.06 caliber? Been looking around, but cannot seem to find that combination available. I like the new CVA rifles, they have one in 7mm mag that looks pretty sweet. I just wanted to stay with the old 06'...

    2023 Wyoming Elk

    Don't hate me, but I am guilty of building points for more than a decade (one under max for deer and two under on Elk). I started applying after graduating college and being able to afford to apply in different states. I had intentions of using them a long time ago, but then marriage came, kid...

    Muzzy Lope hunt with my Son

    Sharing my Utah antelope hunt from this year 2022. I took my son with me on first “tag-along” hunt, he is 7 years old and he asked to come with me on a big game hunt. I did not hesitate to cash my UT points on a muzzy antelope hunt with him in mind. I had 12 points and new that it was futile to...
