Hey all, new to hunt talk. After applying for lots of years I finally drew that highly sought after Butte elephant tag. If anyone can point me to a general area I would really appreciate it. Not looking for anyone’s honey hole. Just a good starting point. TIA.
Just found this in my shed in an old pack from when I moved

Was reloading tonight and opened up a box of nosler accubonds. .277 140gr. About 1/3 of them are tarnished. Some just a little and others quite a bit. Any thoughts or concerns? They are a few years old but it was a new sealed box. The ones on each end of the pic are normal.
Wasn’t sure where to post this so I figured the Deer forum was best:
So a good friend has the 312(Bridger) buck tag. We went out yesterday and poked around all day. We ended up a long way back in and didn’t get back to the trailhead until about 8:00 pm. Right when we arrived at the trailhead a...
This season started off for me as soon as I drew the tag. The first thing I figured out was that this was most likely going to be a backpack hunt. Having never backpack hunted I asked for gear advice on here and ended up with what seemed to be a very solid setup with a new tent, sleeping bag...
Took a little trip this weekend. Hiked in about 6 miles and set up camp Friday after work. I might have snuck out a little early. Spent a large part of Saturday hiding from the storms and lightning. Sunday and Monday were pretty nice. Saw a few billies but only one I liked. Made a run on him...
Having drawn a Montana goat tag this year I am going to be getting set up for backpack hunting. I am very well set up for day hunts but not backpacking. I’ve been doing plenty of research and am about to pull the trigger on a couple grand worth of equipment. I just want to put the list of what...
Looking at getting into some long range target shooting, possibly some competitions. Looking for some input on a reticle. Looking at the Sig Tango4 4-16. Moa vs mils and standard crosshairs vs a tree
I had four days to hunt over thanksgiving in my favorite area in NW Montana. Not having hunted there since 2011 I figured I'd spend the first day just cruising a few of my spots and then I'd pick the one with the best sign and hunt it for the next three days.
Day one was thanksgiving...
I drew my second choice archery tag this year for 798, Brusset, Jordan area. I am taking a week off in sept and have kinda narrowed things down to 4 areas. I would like to get it to two. I don't want to spend the whole time bouncing from place to place. Due to my wife's vacation plans I don't...

Any Hunttalkers in the Libby Montana area?? There is a cancer benefit for Clay Edgmon, a 16 year old that has been at the childrens hospital in Spokane since Nov. The young man loves to hunt and has already killed a few bulls. I will be out of town for work so I won't be able to make it but...
Since joining this site last fall I have become much better educated about the political side of sportsman's issues. I have also become confused about which political party does more harm vs. good. It seems that the D's support public access, and support the average sportsman/hunter while the...
