    Wyoming G&F, how de we get a voice as NR's?

    I would consider shooters to be outdoorsmen. But in any event, the more people in a state buying taxed products, the more money would be generated for that state.

    But they're sure quick to tell you their state manages their wildlife for their residents, aren't they.

    Wyoming G&F, how de we get a voice as NR's?

    Those certain goods are outdoors goods, so the money is being spent by outdoorsmen. The more outdoorsmen in a state buying outdoors goods, the more money that state would get. Hence, it would be based on the population of sportsmen in the state.

    Leaving it in the state in which it was collected would be based on the population of sportsmen in the state.

    Excellent point. Really no reason for the money to ever leave the state.

    Wyoming G&F, how de we get a voice as NR's?

    You know, it would be a pretty simple matter to apportion Pittman-Robertson funds back to the state in which they were collected. Then states could manage their wildlife for their residents with their money. What could be more fair than that? Everyone has a voice with their Senator and...

    Of course they are, but that doesn't mean there is anything else a NR can do if they want to express dissatisfaction.

    The only voice you have is to keep your money in your pocket instead of buying a tag.

    Neither are the players, unless ownership puts them up to it.

    .223 for bear, mountain goat, deer, elk, and moose.

    It isn't the scientific method when there is no way to track and prove failure of the hypothesis. If a wounded animal escapes there is no way to definitively prove whether it was due to bullet failure or a bad shot, only conjecture. But I suppose drawing conclusions with only evidence the...

    Army Navy Game

    All entertainers at the top of their field make huge money, and that's what pro sports are, but I rarely hear much criticism of top actors or musicians earnings.

    Hunting guide as a career ?

    I was in your situation, except I was 18 and planned to make a career of the Army. Fast forward 33 years, and I ended up with a different career but the same girl. I can't predict your future, but marrying my wife is about the only thing I've never second guessed. One thing about being...

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    That ELD-X must be pretty new. They don't yet have either a deer or an elk next to it yet to denote application. It will be interesting to see if Hornady's marketing people get media hunting personalities to start shooting elk and moose with it for everyone to see, then tell everyone that's...

    So, you went smaller caliber, but not down to .223…

    .338 and .300 to .270 via .30-06. Winchester M70 Featherweight. Probably 140 AB for elk and 130 Fusions for deer. Probably won't go any smaller for Elk, but I've gone smaller for deer and will probably do so again.

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    The way these things usually go is that is a run of the mill soft point bullet in a nickel case with law enforcement printed on the box and marked up 20%.

    Infection beyond anything I’ve seen

    What is it? Hopefully, it's a replacement tag if you show it to a warden.

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    You said they can't sell hunting bullets to law enforcement. My duty rifle is loaded with issued "hunting" bullets sold to a law enforcement agency. Sigh, indeed.

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    Au contraire, my duty rifle is loaded with issued Federal 55 gr. bonded soft points.
