Do you wait for daylight in grizzly country?
Dark in dark out. The head lamp does not need to be bright, in fact, it's better as dim as you can your eyes will adjust, and you will be able to see BETTER. Just go into a big choke cherry patch or very thick brush, that's just asking for issues. BUT just in case, make sure your 44 mag or 10mm... -

The "Kansas Model" seems to be working well for feral pig control
In Montana Hunting wild pigs is illegal. State law prohibits the hunting, trapping, or killing of feral swine to prevent the species from becoming established and to avoid scattering "sounders" (groups of pigs), which makes professional eradication more difficult Penalties: Violations can...- D4570

Lighter bullets in a 22 Creedmoor, any one shooting a 55gr in an 8 twist?
He did in deed get 3000 bullets free from an estate of a deer friend. I think they're Sierra bullets . He hates not using them. If he could find a new 22/250 AI in a light weight rifle he would go that route. The Ruger could have two barrel changes and he would come out a head. He shoots 2 to 3...- D4570

Lighter bullets in a 22 Creedmoor, any one shooting a 55gr in an 8 twist?
A buddy of mine acquired a lot (3000) 22 caliber 55 gr bullets. He has a 22/250, but it's very heavy, and at our advanced age It's prohibitive to carry it on long prairie dog hunts. He is thinking about getting a Ruger Amairican gen two, in 22 Creedmoor to use them up. They come in 8 twists or...- D4570

Help, I need a new pronghorn rifle!
I definitely did not intend to diminish your experience or ability. I must have missed that point in your question, sorry. I was just meaning that the time behind a trigger is as important as the trigger.
