    Wirehaired Pointing Griffon training

    Hi all, I currently have an older WPG. Have hunted upland birds with him. When he was younger I sent him off to a trainer for a month. He’s hunted well for me. We just got another WPG pup. I would like to do more of the training for this one. Does anyone have a book or resource they recommend...

    Hey guys, I’m looking for a little help. I have a Marlin 1895gbl in 45-70 I’m going to sell. I’m trying to figure out it’s actual value. Seems like values are all over the place right now.

    Soooooo close!!

    My oldest turned 12 this spring so this is his first year elk hunting MT. He will get few hunts with his busy schedule. I took him out this evening. Lots of sign, zero talk from the elk. We walked in 1.5 miles & sat for awhile. About 6:30 I told him get ready I was going to call. I told him...

    WTB spotting scope

    I’m looking for a good quality spotting scope. It will be for backcountry hunting so I don’t want a big one. I’d be willing to spend $7-800ish. Let me know if you’re parting with one. I’m not settled on a brand, it will just depend on the scope. Thanks very much

    MT 216 sheep

    After years of donations to MT FWP I drew the tag I was sure would never come. I am fortunate I’m familiar with the area from years of elk hunting there. I’m also fortunate to know folks that are very knowledgeable of the sheep there. It’s only a 45 minute drive from home. My oldest son is 12 &...

    MT bear success

    Well, I took the advice from a post earlier today and we got one. I took my 12 yo son out for the afternoon. His baseball schedule precludes him from getting out much. We hiked up a canyon with a couple big meadows & a creek in it. There was lots of bear scat, from a bear I’d love to see! We got...

    Bear-where on the mountain to hunt?

    I have been unable to get my 12 year old out for spring bear this year save for one time due to his baseball schedule. I have multiple spots I bear hunt so I’m not looking for advice on a spot per se. I have this weekend to get him out. I haven’t been out in 3 wks so I’m not sure of bear...

    Elk hunting with your wife & 6yo

    Took my wife & son out elk hunting last night. Wife has a damage hunt tag. We drove around in the side by side and had success. It was a great evening with them. Things I learned last night: 1) making snow angels while elk hunting is perfectly acceptable 2) my son goes from laughing, hollering...

    Custer National Forest Roads

    Hey guys, I'm headed to Custer national in SE MT this afternoon with my son for a couple days. I was wondering if anyone can give me an idea on road conditions. I have a side by side I'm toying with taking if roads aren't good. I'd rather not drag it over if the roads are in ok shape. Thanks...

    257 weatherby load

    I purchased a barely used 257 wby vanguard this winter. I do plan on hand loading for it. However, to see what it likes I bought a box of wby ammo with 100 gr Barnes ttsx & 110 gr accubonds. The ttsx shot about 1.25" groups, accubonds just over 1/2", im going with the accubonds. Does anyone here...

    Rock River Arms 20" Predator Pursuit

    I purchased this gun 4 years ago. Rock Rivers Arms website gives full description. In good condition, it has been used for coyote hunting. Selling as it's just too heavy to lug around the mountains. Would sell as bare rifle for $950. Or would include PEPR mount and Nikon Buckmaster 4.5-14x40...

    New rifle

    Hello, I am looking at getting a new rifle. I am looking at 2 specific guns: Montana Rifle Company x2 & Weatherby Wilderness, in 25-06. I have narrowed it down to these 2 for several reasons. Neither of these are what I would call common guns. I was curious if anyone who has handled or fired...

    7x57 brass

    So, I grew up primarily shooting deer/elk with a 7x57. When I graduated high school my dad bought me a 270, that is primarily what I now use. My son is 10 and can now hunt deer/bear here in MT. Fortunately, my dad gave me that 7x57. My brother reloads for me, however, he has no brass for this...

    New dog input

    Hello, I was hoping to get some insight from those with experience with German Shorthair or Vizsla breeds. A little history may be helpful. I grew up in a house with black labs. I have continued with that and currently have my second lab. Our first, was bred to hunt all day long. He was a...
