Petition to mandate hunters to carry bear spray in Montana.
I have really good bear spray contained in a S&W 41 magnum with hand loaded 265 grain hard cast. As long as I can stay relatively calm, good luck with that, I feel somewhat safe. If this doesn’t work I have a backup plan. I will foul myself so bad that bear will take one sniff and his nose will...- MTGunner

Stinking bears….grrrrrr….?
OK, apples off the tree. Very nice Jona Gold pie and applesauce apples. Too good for the stinking bears. Broke limbs on both trees. I do not want to shoot a bear. Not my bag. Yes, it is natures way. But there have been so many problems with griz and black bears this year. MFW&P has their hands...- MTGunner

Stinking bears….grrrrrr….?
I mowed the lawn yesterday. Forgot to plug the electric fence back in when complete. Mr. Bear got in the garden and wreaked havoc with our apple trees. I have hunted bears with a friend. Never took one as it’s a conundrum of mine and decided it’s not my bag. Oh well. But, I may change my mind...- MTGunner

Kudos for Nosler customer services…
I purchased some 7x57 brass directly from Nosler. Three pieces were junk. I contacted the customer directly stating my concern. They shipped me replacement brass. Nosler is good for there word. I am pleased. But, they shipped me 7MMRUM brass. Hmmmmm….. oh well. So, I have 5 pieces of Nosler...- MTGunner

How old is too old to apply for physical hunts?
I turn 79 today. Yep,79 years old. I am excited waiting to see if I draw an antelope permit. Antelope are a fun hunt. I have a deer and elk tag for MT. I have a Nilgai hunt in early Nov. Yep, you get old. But, keep moving. MTG- MTGunner

Back yard mulie…
This mule deer has been visiting our mineral block, 15 yards behind our house, all spring and summer. He has all sorts of trash on his rack. Still in velvet and not done growing. It’s my wish that he lives to spread his genes and produce some progeny here in NW Montana. We live on the... -

Bought a Ruger RSI 7x57….
This 7x57 will be a WT stalking rifle. My old age Makes slow stalking easier all the time. If I will group 1” at a hundred I will be happy. Have read that these can be finicky. I’ll work up some loads. My friend, Steve, would not even let me handle this rifle in the past. Was afraid I would not...- MTGunner

Bought a Ruger RSI 7x57….
I have lusted over this particular rifle for more than 30 years. Bought it from a good friend, my brother from another mother. He has Parkinson’s and doesn’t hunt any longer. It’s a Ruger number 1, Mannlicher stock, 7x57, 20” barrel. Next, I need brass as I have Redding dies. Guess this will...- MTGunner

BHA sues to ensure MT corner crossing
Reading the corner crossing dilemma over on Rockslide seems it has been decided by our governor and not the courts. SCOTUS declined to hear the case and upheld the 9th district courts decision. Yet, there may be more. It’s a shame that public land is not open to all. We pay a fee to hunt state...- MTGunner
