CC,
I have a Ruger Safari mag in 375 H&H. I bought it to hunt buffalo in Zambia a few years back. My only kills with it have benn a buffalo , hyena and a puku. Its a fun gun to shoot off of...

I wish we could have sent you guys some of that nearly 2 in of rain we got this weekend in westenr WA. Looks like we may not draw all are doe deer and antelope tags if this keeps up. Hope you get...

I have an SKB double rifle case. Its been to Africa and back 4 times with no problems.

Sorry Dr, Its WY

I put in with a friend for some doe tags for this area. He just wants some meat to take back to FL. I don't have points but put in for an 83 buck tag and hope to get real lucky. Are there some good...

I've been shooting one since the early 90's.
1. 185gr Barnes TS 58-60gr of IMR 4064
2. 210gr Barnes TS 57gr IMR 4064
3. 210 Nosler partition 57gr IMR 4064
work these loads up from 2gr below....

With the high cost for a NR to apply and so few goat tags, forget WA. I got lucky and drew one in 1992. I have 17 points now and still haven't drawn another one.

Thanks Shedhead for the info.

I like the Roberts but not a great fit in a short action. I have a long throated Ruger #1 with a 26 barrel and I get 3,200fps with a 100gr. Barnes TS I been shooting a 7x57 since 1976 and it has...

Thanks Rasmussen, that was the kind of info I was looking for. I don't want to spend all my time looking at my GPS to see if on private ground. Will now have to think about hunting there.

Thanks guys for clearing this up. I had a feeling this was too good to be true. Well with no points I can always hope to get lucky.

I see both these areas can be drawn without any points. I haven't gotten hold of the biologist for these areas yet. I know there sub areas of the larger area but are they still good areas to apply...

My dilemma is I'm 62yrs and have one deer point. Looking at the draw odds I'm never going to draw the best limited deer hunts in WY before I'm too old. I'm still in good shape and can pack in 4 or 5...

I need to apply soon for spring bear in WA. Me and a buddy have enough points to be able to draw but its still a random draw here.
Lots of bears in WA but never a sure thing on killing one.

You may want to look at areas 46-2, 47-2 and 48-2. Decent antelope there but not many monsters. There are HMA's in 46 and 47 you can hunt on. Shot a decent buck in 46 but its been a while since I've...

I wonder with all the doom and gloom about the drought in WY I've been hearing, I'm starting to wonder if its worth it to hunt WY this year. How does everyone feel about its affect on trophy quality...

BB,
Thank you for your speedy reply and honest answer to my questions on the spotter. Looks like Cabellas has them for $199 and you can return it if you don't like it. Seems like a safe way to buy...

Bitterroot,
Do you think that scope at 40x would be good enough for use on antelope judging at 300-500yd? Do you know how the Nomad would stack up aganist the Celestron ultima 18x55x65mm. I have...

MT-boy I looked at one on Sat but could not test it outside. Are you happy with the eye reliefe and sharpness at the higher powers?

Anyone know anything about the Celestron Ultima Spotting scopes. I was wondering about the 18x55x65 model.Are they any good? Would just use it for antelope hunting when I get lucky to draw a tag in...

Wa big game hunting is fair at best, unless you draw a special tag. The bright spots are the NE corner WT's and the bird hunting. I had to go hunt cow elk in WY on a leftover tag because I could not...

I you look at all the green chip areas and look at the draw odds for them, you will find you probably won't be able to draw any of them as a second choice. You really only have one choice when it...

Hunted oryx on the small missle range on White Sands. Hardly a shoot for me and those two day hunts puts plenty of pressure on you which I didn't like. I got lucky and hired a guide who happened to...

After not being able to draw a branched antler bull tag in WA for the last 7yr or a cow tag in the last 5, my hunger for elk meat was getting pretty strong. Three friends and I decided to buy left...

Timber,
I had the same kind of season as you up here in WA. I hunted 6 days of the reg season and 2 of the late whitetail with nothing to show for it. What made it even worse, I saw very few deer...
