Remington model 710's had chamber problems where this issue could arise. 710 by any chance?

Yeah, I was not going to get into why they are doing this, just the effects it "could" have. If you get into why they are changing this rule, it will turn into a shoot slinging fight, both pro Game and Fish, and con game and fish.

Turtle skins!

I would think that less non res will draw in the random, because it is random, and the 5% will probably not be reached. But you never know, because its random. I like the new structure on paper, but only time will tell.

Do not shame Pete's like that!! They only hire classy women!!

It is a cap, not a guaranteed 5% and 5%. In most units where high BP Non-res hunters put in, there is almost always more with max points than the cap will allow. This now caps at 5% which in most units is very few tags, and then puts the others in the general draw. So lets say last year there were 20 guys that wanted unit 9 early archery bull. Last year there were 100 tags available. I will just about guarantee that 10 of those went to Non-Res. (10% cap) When this passes, only 5 would be guaranteed to Non-Res, and the additional 5 would have to be drawn randomly. This "could" mean more tags for residents.

Yes!! Awesome. I love seeing all the kids knocking down animals.

Yep, as others said, probably need to full length size or trim the brass. I would imagine it is the sizing tho. Lower your die enough to get good clean chambering with brass only.

I also heard that the nightforce is made by meopta. Great scope, but most of the testers did not see a reason to get the nightforce over the Meopta. Swarovski HD is a great choice or any of the Nikon ED or EDG scopes. Nikon high end spotting scopes will compete with any of the 3 high end companies. ED or HD glass is a must if you are wanting high quality pictures. I know it sounds weird, but go on a birding forum and look at what the higher end photographers are using. Those birders do know their optics. haha

I wish I could help, but I have never been there before. I picked up one of the leftovers for the November hunt, and plan to scout at least once this month. Looks like lots of good area, so long as you are willing to hike up some pretty good sized mountains. Any of you guys that have the earlier hunts, and want to give me an info after your hunt, would be appreciated as well. I can not offer up any nude pics of ex's tho.

need to see non-nude 1st to determine which spot I am going to tell you about.

Ha, calling the wife..... Now I know your fibbing, you were checking the football scores, most expensive suicide pool you have ever been in!!

Congrats on your bull, looking forward to more pictures

My dad makes some pretty good squirrel red chili. I think it is the only way to make those things tender....

Nice Job Whitey! Looks like a pretty solid bull! Love to see the kids knocking down animals. Good luck on your future hunts.

Finding the right water up north can be a blast. Opening weekend I have limited 80% of the time. Mostly teal, but always a fun shoot. Hardest part of duck hunting is putting the time in and finding good water. Good luck, and just remember after the first shot of the season, get ready, it can be crazy fast for about 10 minutes.

Sweet looking bull! Looks like he has to be 50"-55" inside?

Post pics again. I want to see some different angles. Sometimes the camera makes things look bigger and smaller. I personally did not think it looked like 340" either, but pictures can be deceiving. It was a nice bull tho, and there should be no reason for you to take your pictures down if people disagree on score. There has been lots of animals on here, that I do not think look as big as the score posted, or some that look even bigger than the score posted. Thick skin is needed in this forums, some guys have it, and some do not. I do think that your original offer on here is great for lots of hunters, just not a lot of hunters from this site. Most on here do not need help elk hunting, they already are really good at it. 300" bulls do not peak their interest the slightest bit. I would argue that he vast majority of hunters without a toy hauler, or the knowledge of everyone on here would like the offer you posted.

dang Hoa's!!

The difference is, the 350$ one comes with a scale, and the cheaper one I believe is the dispenser only. When I bought mine, Natchez had the best deal. I saw cabelas had them for $299 not too long ago.

I picked up the Kryptek Poseidon. Super lightweight, packable and was,is on closeout. Check sierra trading post. After coupons and discounts, it can be had for 150$ for the set.

Depending how much you are wanting to spend, and how often you plan to reload, My RCBS chargemaster has been my best purchase. Speeds up reloading considerably. RCBS Rock chucker press is perfect. Hornady Ogive measurer hand primer A good scale ( chargemaster has a good scale) Those are a few things that help me

Should still be going. Good luck to your son on his hunt

I would love to chew your butt, but it is a waste if you already do it. Nothing anyone is going to say is going to make people change their minds on how far they can shoot. Glad you missed.

I would guess they get a pretty good penny for them. Call Bret Prentice @ game trail Taxidermy. He buys and sells capes often.
