    Glassing Optic Upgrade - Sig Zulu6?

    I can’t wait for stabilized binos with equal FOV to better binos. I don’t even feel like I need better glass given the power of stabilization so was disappointed to see the new HDX pro has a slightly smaller field of view but better glass. Yeah I would appreciate better glass but it is not the...

    300 WSM Powder

    I’ve been having a terrible time getting copper bullets(190LRX and 190CX) to shoot so going back to lead. My load of 66gn H4831SC under a 215 Berger at 3.290 COAL(throated +0.100) shoots mostly 1 hole and 3/4 inch overall so I have a pretty good thing going. The 212 ELDX didn’t shoot as well for...

    Game Bags not getting clean?

    Definitely make sure they have been scrubbed, then soak in a bleach solution 50/50 water/bleach. Then rinse again and you should be good.

    Best zero degree down bags

    I have the Mountain Hardware Bishop Pass 0 and it delivers incredible value. I’m very happy with it. It’s 3lbs 2oz so just barely heavier than the premium bags but is half the price of many bags as it retails for $325 but you should be able to find it for less. If you really want to save weight...

    We need to start lobbying for point system reform

    I also hate how if you don’t draw the general you don’t even have a shot in the LE. If I didn’t already have a bunch of points in MT I would not start applying there and would not recommend others do it. The system just feels slimy to me.

    Looking ahead to ‘25 season

    Especially as an FNG, you are not likely to get many recommendations on places. I think what @j_volt gave you is very good advice and probably the best you are going to get.

    Silver State Nelson Bighorn Tag

    Be aware there are quite a few rifle hunts that open on October 15th so someone could shoot a ram you are watching then. Units 184, 202, 204, and 207 open October 15.

    Why I would never buy a Tikka

    Wish I could buy all 9 tikkas since they “don’t” shoot and test them myself

    Why do we buy soft shells?

    I actually feel like the jetstream does block the wind well but that is the only thing it does well in my opinion.

    Why I would never buy a Tikka

    Clearly the fault of the Tikka. Everyone please stop buying them. :ROFLMAO:

    Antelope strategy

    If your unit has viable areas away from Ag fields I have found there to be a lot less pressure there. It seems most people are drawn to Ag areas since the highest density of antelope are usually there. I love finding them up in the mountains. Pressure in the valleys probably also pushed them up...

    Hunt in the rain

    I was just on an archery hunt a few weeks ago and we have a good afternoon rainstorm. As it was ending it definitely made the deer start coming out very early in the afternoon when they never would have otherwise had. I spotted 13 deer in 15 minutes at 3pm.

    Hunt in the rain

    As everyone said it is great for stalking but the caveat is good luck finding animals. They will likely move less, stay hidden, and you won't be able to see shit while glassing.

    Has your dog been injured?

    Had my pup rip the pads off his front feet from running on too sharp of rocks. Didn't need to take him to the vet, just wrapped them up and kept the Neosporin on them. I was amazed how he didn't even act fazed and just kept going then I noticed blood on the ground.

    2024 OFFICIAL Mule deer meat pole thread

    Lots of 2 and 3 year old bucks running around NV right now. Got within 150 yards of some nicer bucks but couldn’t get a clear shot. Ended up taking this small 3x4 but it’s a trophy to me as it’s my first muzzleloader buck. Bonus photo of my buddies deer from the trip of similar size.

    2024 Antelope meatpole

    Very special moment for me today. Used a family heirloom to take its first animal in my hands. It’s a Savage 250-3000 pre model 99 made in 1906. Had an antelope horns shorter than ears(doe) tag in my home state of NV.
