Man I shipped my app from Texas on Thursday and told em it needed to be there Monday. I just checked the tracking this morning and they delivered it Friday! Looks like I wasted that application. Gotta send out another one.

New Mexico results are up, no elk or antelope for me but I did get the carp tag in 23.

You get to hunt everything you want and every year too! Anchorage is the city but the wilderness is an hour or less drive/plane ride away. If I was you I would do in a heartbeat, wife didn't like the two week on two week off schedule. Just buy a lifetime hunting license before you leave AZ and put in for the rut hunts.

Anchorage is just like any decent sized city, it's got the big box stores, chain restaurants just a little colder and windier than most. The cost of living will be higher than most places in the lower 48 due to its location. Also over half of Alaska population lives in Anchorage and the neighboring Matanuska Valley so it's not going to be very rural as you see on tv. But you do get to hunt everything! Very few draws, like kodiak island brown bear, certain units for sheep and elk. Caribou, moose, bear, deer, sheep, mountain goats are all over the counter for most units and the tags are cheap. Like free. I remember only paying for a brown bear tag and it was 50 bucks. Fishing is great too but I always just used a net for subsistence purposes. If you're all about the outdoors I would do it, I had to turn down a job in Juneau last year because I couldn't get the wife onboard. Good luck

All you need is the Barska 6-24x50, found at any big five store!
-
Yes and do it if you are planning on moving out of state. It will pay for itself in a few years because other wise you would have to buy a non refundable nr license every year. First thing I did when we made the decision to move was to buy my wife and I lifetime licenses.

Interesting my card never got hit but it says I was drawn for javi, which I assumed I had because its javelina! They took the 13 bucks for bonus point but not the rest. Maybe next year I will get that turkey tag, 13 points now
-
I am also thinking about buying one, are the stable enough for a 65mm spotter?
-
The 64 grain nosler bonded works great on Javelinas and coyotes. Drops them in their tracks
-
Weatherby 270 magnum or Winchester 270?
-
If we can meet in the Mohawk Valley, I will be able to pick the little guy up!
-
I dropped a coues with a 129gr from a 270 but it was only about 120 yards. I do get around .6" groups at a 100yds without playing with seating depth and only trying one powder.
