    Going to try this again, but much earlier in the process. A Wyoming NR pronghorn and mule deer combo hunt.

    Good afternoon everyone. I am going to try this again, but much earlier in the process. I appreciate all the advice last year right before the WY deer and pronghorn draw. With my brother, cousins and Uncle heading to Idaho for mule deer in two different units and hunt dates, I was not able to...

    My current pack for a mobile tree 🌳 saddle gear and deer 🦌 or bear 🐻 meat 🥩 hauler. What is everyone else using for a combo pack and how is it workin?

    Since I currently can’t afford a high quality pack for carrying in my tree saddle mobile setup with Tethrd Predator XL platform and Hawk Helium 20 in sticks and hopefully haul out deer 🦌 or possibly black bear 🐻 meat 🥩 from the deep and steep places of West Virginia and PA, I am going to try...

    Quality "Available" bullets to reload for my Savage M110 in .270 Win?

    Aside from the .300 WSM that I have made multiple posts on this forum, I also have a late 90s Savage Model 110 in .270 Win. I have had her for 23-24 years since my Dad bought her for me when I was a teenager. Since I am having muzzle brake issues with my .300 WSM that has hurt my ears on those...

    Best cost effective solution to the current issue with my Savage M110 Long Range Hunter in .300 WSM

    Some of you that have been on HuntTalk before Sept of 2019 will recall that I bought a new Savage M110 Long Range Hunter in 300 WSM to accompany my longtime .270 Win. I mostly bought it thinking that I would use it out west for elk and mule deer 🦌 and give me more bullet weight for possibly...

    First Western Big Game Hunt where I am applying for tag/tags. Pronghorn and possibly mule deer.

    Hello fellow HTers. This is my first post in a while, but I am always thankful for the advice and even the jokes on my threads. Anyway I am planning on applying for my first western big game hunt where I have a tag, after being a tag along with my Dad and youngest brother in a 2019 Idaho rifle...

    Thoughts on using a military surplus ruck sack as a first pack until I can save up for a high quality/value pack for Western Big Game hunting?

    I am curious 🧐 what everyone’s thoughts and experiences are with using a military surplus ruck for backcountry style hunts or even truck camping 🏕 and potentially packing an animal out with it? I recently was given a rucksack 🎒 by an Army Vet who volunteers at a local VA. He is a coworker and...

    Pronghorn State Ranking

    I have a goal as some of you might remember to hunt pronghorn in every state that I can DIY style with any weapon type. I may cut out California, Oregon, Washington, but would include all the other western states as well as South Dakota, Nebraska, and perhaps Oklahoma. Not sure about Kansas for...

    Is buying bonus and preference points for Montana worth it for someone who is new like myself?

    I am the King procrastinator (one of my biggest faults). Anyway I am thinking about buying either preference or/bonus points in Montana and the deadline is a couple days away. I do have a rather limited budget so I want to make the right choices. I am newer to the game although I do have 1-2...

    Trouble finding replacement bowstrings and cables for my 06' PSE Fire Flite 33 LH compound bow.

    I have a PSE Fire Flite 33 Left handed compound bow set at 60# even though it can go to 70# that I have had since I got a deal on it while working at Cabela's back in 06', I have yet to take an animal with it, but shoot it at targets every year and for walks and sits in the woods when I can. I...

    Bigger advantage in a VX-3i Leupold riflescope?

    I finally have narrowed my scope choice for my Savage Model 110 Long Range Hunter in .300 WSM that I bought last September to two Leupold VX-3i scopes. One being a 4.5-14x50 CDS-ZL2 (30 mm) Side Focus with Duplex reticle and the other the 4.5-14x40 CDS-ZL2 (30mm) Side Focus with Windplex...

    Semi Building my first MSR mostly for coyote/varmint and bench rest shooting, not sure which barrel length would be best for my intended purposes?

    I am going to build my first MSR, which I should have started 8 years ago or so, but political fear reasons (a bear den sized hole I don't want to go down) and the fact that my Marine brother left his old school Bushmaster AR-15 at home since he didn't need it in the service and said that I or...

    Worth buying a Preference Point for Pronghorn in Colorado?

    I have a question, I bought points for elk and mule deer in CO last year and did so last night for those two species, but I couldn't make up my mind completely on if I should buy a preference point for pronghorn in Colorado. I already bought the qualifying license so it would be just $9. But my...

    Finally time to do some reloading for my Savage Model 110 Long Range Hunter in 300 WSM.

    Well it is way past time for me to do some reloading tests for my new Savage Model 110 Long Range Hunter in .300 WSM. I finally got to the point where I have enough brass, bullets, powders, and other components to test in my .300 WSM. Even though I sadly used expensive rounds in the Hornady...

    Which new Leupold scope for my new Savage Model 110 Long Range Hunter in .300 WSM?

    I know there are some new scope threads, but I have to ask. For my new Savage Model 110 Long Range Hunter in .300 WSM I have narrowed the Leupold scopes I want down to pretty much three: 1.) VX-5HD 3-15 x 44 CDS ZL2 (2.) VX-3i LRP 6.5-20x50 Side Focus (3) VX-3i 4.5-14x50 SF CDS 30mm tube. I...

    Anyone ever use HAMMER bullets to reload their .300 WSM?

    I have seen a few people mention Hammer Bullets, especially on threads talking about reloading for a .257 Wby Mag (another caliber that I am really interested in, that is a smaller caliber than my .270 and .300WSM). I was just curious if anyone has used them in a .30 cal whether it be a .308...

    Is it possible to draw a pronghorn and mule deer tag in Wyoming for crossover hunt dates with a rifle while only having one preference point for each?

    I am an extremely new western big game hunter from West Virginia. My youngest brother, my Dad and myself had our first western big game hunt experience in Idaho doing a rifle mule deer hunt in early Oct. Sadly I didn't have the $$$ for my tag, but they did and my brother was successful on a...

    Having trouble finding mule deer 🦌 especially bucks in Idaho unit 76 and 66a. Any reason why? Any help would be appreciated.

    My Dad, youngest brother and I drove all the way from West Virginia to Idaho for mule deer 🦌 and fall black bear 🐻 along with some fishing 🎣 and small game hunting. We met up with another group from the same area in WV. Spent all day scouting today and not much hot sign aside from elk. Glassed a...

    Finally received the rifle that I had on layaway for 3 months in the caliber that I have wanted to try for 8-10 years last Friday.

    A continuation of a post that a made a few months ago about finding an AWESOME sale on a rifle that I want to set up for Western Big Game Hunting in the near future. To set it up I am from West Virginia and have only hunted whitetail with a rifle and usually shots are under 100 yards where I...

    New bow sight for me a left handed shooter, having trouble with running out of room for adjustments.

    I put this new Trophy Ridge Joker 4 pin sight on today. I got it for $23 at a not so well liked large department store that I currently work for. It states on the package that it is an AMBI sight for us left eye dominate shooters (I am right handed with everything else), but it appears that with...

    Using my whitetail set up this Fall for black bears if I am lucky/blessed to go to Idaho or hunt my neighboring state of PA with friends.

    My youngest brother has an OTC mule deer tag in Idaho, will be using a rifle. We know it can turn into a bear tag. I would like to go, but can't afford a deer tag. I thought about buying a black bear tag instead. I have a .300 WSM on layaway, but it won't be ready for the Oct. 10-18th time frame...
