    What to do with Barnes XLC ammo?

    Thanks for the responses. Sounds like I should just use them up. Can someone with ballistic knowledge let me know if there is any difference between 225 grain XLC and TSX? Is it close enough that my CDS created for the TSX will work well enough?

    What to do with Barnes XLC ammo?

    Some additional clarification. The rounds were loaded for my rifle, which is a 340 Weatherby so it would be a bit much for prairie dogs. I did shoot a portion of the box when they were first loaded, so am confident they would be safe to shoot through the same rifle. I was gifted my uncle’s...

    What to do with Barnes XLC ammo?

    Hey everyone, I could use your advice. I have a stash of 30 old Barnes XLC (the blue bullets) ammunition that my uncle hand loaded 20ish years ago. They have been sitting unused because he switched over to TSX bullets as soon as they came out and those TSX bullets have performed perfectly for...

    Stop Blaming Conservation Orgs

    I think I need to be educated as well. What have you personally done to make positive improvements for hunters on the ground in MT? Please enlighten the group so we can properly weight your criticism.

    2024 Colorado Statewide Sheep, Mountain Goat, and Pronghorn Raffles

    I think my brain would melt if I had to decide which of these rams was the “best” to shoot if I came across this in the field with a tag in my pocket.

    Tics not Tik Toc

    I had a similar experience after my first time turkey hunting in Virginia. I am a firm believer of permethrin treated clothing. This brand has worked well for me...

    Upon receiving my draw result I immediately went in and brought a ticket for the sheep tag. Also picked up one of the few remaining tickets for the rifle.

    Darn, only the $50 charge for me with this being my final chance as a resident. I was holding out hope lightning might strike.

    Hunters For Access Raffle - 2024

    That link is not working for me. It says 403 Forbidden. Do others see the same result or is it because I am trying to access it while on a vpn? I can go to the organization’s main website, but not it’s raffle page.

    Who’s right.

    Yes, you need to draw a tag to be able to hunt antelope. For your second question, you are unlikely to get any assistance on a public forum. The people who have that knowledge aren’t going to share it because they would then lose that access with a flood of new people contacting the landowners...

    Idaho’s approach was brought up and it got latched on to. If that person had never mentioned Idaho, the proposal likely wouldn’t have developed.

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    I don’t think many people on this earth really know how the fixed rate is going to change after the end of the month. It’s hard to not jump on the highest rate in 20 years. At the same time, the Fed hasn’t dropped the prime rate yet so why would it go down? I honestly don’t know. One possible...

    Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?

    The 1.3% is fixed for the life of the bond while a second portion adjusts along with inflation every 6 months. The current total for the first 6 months of bonds purchased through the end of April is 5.27%. The fixed amount of 1.3% is the highest I bonds have been in a very long time. To the...

    Not on Your Bucket List

    I agree with you on the giraffe. I used to agree with you on the Zebra until I observed them in South Africa in the wild. Those things are a$$holes to one another and wild as hell. I changed my mind right then and there. I never shot one that trip due to the budget, but I would if given the...
