    Help Choosing a Rifle

    I may get to the point of being sick of researching and just going with a Tikka. I was hoping to find something with adjustable or at least longer than average LOP Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Help Choosing a Rifle

    I know, another help my pick a rifle thread. To give some perspective I need to be under $800 for the bare rifle itself. I’m suffering from a bit of analysis paralysis looking for a rifle. I don’t have any ties to particular brands, so that doesn’t matter much to me. Right now I’m living in...

    Moving to Montana

    Thanks brother, really appreciate the kind words and encouragement. We’re beyond excited and the anticipation will be the hardest part of the move haha. Bzn and Missoula are pretty much out of the question. Idk if it will happen, but it would be cool to visit Butte before our move. Fortunately...

    Moving to Montana

    I know it doesn’t help our cause, but we’re really just not very interested in the eastern part of the state for some of the reasons you mentioned. If we’re going to move across the country I’d like to have some mountains or at the very least hills within reasonable distance haha Sent from my...

    Moving to Montana

    Yeah we’re definitely taking those things into account in terms of balancing decent paying jobs with cost of living of where we choose to buy. Buying in the winter is something I hadn’t thought of either. You may have mentioned it, but what school district does your wife work in if you don’t...

    In and around Helena has definitely had our primary focus recently. As much as I like other areas there just aren't always a lot of jobs available from what I can tell. The bigger cities have a distinct advantage there for two people in education.

    Yeah definitely aware of the longer drives for just about everything; I've heard that from her parents since we've been married haha. That's really helpful though, thank you for your input. I think at this point we'll probably start considering Butte as a viable option.

    I hear you. Why would Butte be your pick? What makes the schools in Lewistown so bad right now?

    Moving to Montana

    That totally makes sense. Yeah that's an insane commute and definitely something we'd like to avoid. We'll likely end up working in person since I'm a teacher and she practices speech therapy, although there are probably some opportunities to work remote for those jobs. I've had a 40 minute...

    Moving to Montana

    Yeah I'm not sure why, but I was under the impression that Great Falls was a lot smaller than that. It just hasn't been on my radar since I've been so focused on the Helena/Butte area of the state. We should probably be considering it. Sort of a random question, but what do you do for work? Do...

    Moving to Montana

    That's great info, thank you. We've considered Wyoming as well, it's just hard to be committed when we haven't been there and don't have any connections there either. Definitely still expensive in a lot of those cities too. Augusta is certainly small by any standards. Do you feel like Great...

    Well that's encouraging to hear. Thank you again for taking the time to reply, it's super helpful for us!

    Moving to Montana

    That all makes sense to me. How you've described Butte is pretty similar to what I've heard other people say. While living in Butte or Helena, were roads during the winter much of an issue for you or your family?

    Moving to Montana

    Definitely looking for more big game hunting like elk and mule deer than I am fishing. The outdoor culture for hunting/fishing and hiking is certainly a big part of wanting to move. I just didn't want to this to turn into one of those "hey everybody tell me where the best hunting in Montana is"...
