I am going on an elk hunt in Washington and purchased the CVA Northwest muzzleloader to be legal in that state. I can't get it to fire more than once! Attached is a picture of the cci musket cap I am using. After the initial shot, the cap goes off but not hot enough to fire. I clean the...

I got my mount back a few weeks ago. Really pleased with how it turned out! Lien2

What do you guys do to protect the turret from getting bumped/spun while hunting or putting it in a case/scabbard, etc. Is there a separate cover a guy can get, or use duct tape, etc? Lien2

I've narrowed the new scope choices to these two for my 7mm Rem Mag. Does anyone have any experience with either or a preference?

I booked with Elk Valley Bighorn Outfitters out of Cranbrook, BC last winter. I've always been in good shape, but I took it to another level for this hunt and am glad I did, actually there were times I wished I had done more. Ran my first full marathon in May with a time of 3:20. At the...

I was lucky enough to take this big billy in southeast BC back in October. It was the biggest we had seen in 8 days of hunting. He banged himself up pretty good after when he fell, but nothing the taxidermist can't fix! Amazing hunt.

I had a great time and hunt in British Columbia back in October. This was at the end of day 12 of a goat/elk combo. Unbelievable country......beautiful and brutal all at the same time.

My wife was lucky enough to take her best bow buck in the last hour of the season on Sunday. I was tagged out on Thanksgiving so it was great for me to join her in the stand and watch it all unfold! Lien2

I had a very memorable night in the deer stand this past Saturday. With my 6 year old son, Hunter, by my side I was able to take this MN buck with a gun my Dad had bought for me when I was 15 years old. One day that gun will be Hunters. His simultaneous high five and words "DAD, that was...

After 4 archery elk hunts over the last 6 years I finally got it done. I didn't see a bull till day 4 but couldn't relocate him after a stalk. I went to the same area on Day 5 and found him again, put on a stalk and got him, found him on Day 6. He was the only bull I saw. Camp was at 10,800'...

I had a great time chasing turkey's with my son last Saturday in ND! He reminds me so much of me when I was young and exploring everything outdoors, and asking a thousand questions to my Dad. :) Lien2 2012 Hoyt Carbon Element, Easton Injexion Arrows, NAP Deep Six Bloodrunner Broadhead.

I am looking into an elk hunt and would like your thoughts on these hunts/units. Late Rifle Hunt: Unit 23, or 27. Archery Hunt: Unit 5BNorth, or 8. Weapon makes no difference to me, I just want a quality hunt and get the most out of my years of getting points. I like the extended range of...

We have a picture of this buck from back in 2007 when he was 4.5, we named him Floppy Ear due to his right ear being damaged and hanging down along his face. We got a couple more pics of him late last year, but he was only seen once during daylight. He showed up this year the week of Halloween...

I was lucky enough to take this buck in northern MN. I had passed him up last year, a buddy found his shed this spring, and saw him again a few weekends ago. I was very happy with the performance of the .50cal T/C Triumph, 120 grains of BH209, and the 250 grain T/C Shockwave bullet. 155 yard...

Last week I took the factory sight off my T/C Triumph and put a peep on.........WOW. What a difference! Scopes or anything with magnification are illegal where I hunt. I also tried BH209 for the first time and again.........WOW! I am now consistantly hitting 2.5" high at 100 yards, 6" low at...

Has anyone ever tinkered with cutting a 777 pellet in half? I would like to try a 125 grain load in my T/C Triumph, so I would cut a 50 grain pellet in half. Wonder how messy or accurate it would be. Also thinking of switching over to BH 209, but those dang pellets are just so handy I can't...

My wife has 6 points now for elk in CO. She did not put in for a tag this year and got another point. She really wants to go on an elk hunt and the warmer the weather the better, so we are thinking a muzzleloader hunt. Maybe next year or the year after but are wondering what unit. I live in...

Has anyone ever bow hunted with this outfit for elk? Either guided or drop camp? Thoughts? Lien2

LAST EDITED ON Jan-11-11 AT 10:07AM (MST)[p]I found a shed from another buck 2 weeks prior to taking this one so I knew they were shedding antlers early. I had several pics of this buck so I knew he was still carrying his........till I got a little too rough! I shot him on December 28th, felt...

Hi guys! It's been a while since I've been able to get on here, mainly cuz either my puter or MM wasn't loading correctly. But now I'm in and things are running smoothly! Here is my mule deer buck from Montana. He was missing half of his left ear, had several scars on his big roman nose, and...

Can't find the draw odds. Does anyone know the nonresident chances of drawing an antelope tag in Region 7 with 1 point. Thanks. Lien2

After waiting for a few months, I just saw my future muzzleloader yesterday at the local shop. The Thompson Center Triumph is exactly what I was looking for. I thought about the TC Encore, but could never see myself needing more barrels, and the TC Omega appeared to be hard to clean, I also...

Can you get a Preference Point for a young kid that does not have a Hunter Safety card/number? In most of the Western states that I have applied you always need your Social Security number, and a Hunter Safety number. Wondering if there is a way around this to get a point. Lien2

I just read on another forum that at the Hunt EXPO Banquet lastnight, the FNAWS, MDF, and SFH presented Utah Governer, Jon Huntsman with a check for $1,000,000 to be used for mule deer restoration (habitat) in Utah?! Apparantly the Utah legislature still needs to aprove it and come up with some...

I saw this buck at 7:00AM Sunday morning in northern MN. He dissappeared in tall grass before I got a decent look at him. I knew he bedded, and would get up eventually. I decided to wait him out. I saw glimpses of him throughout the morning, but he would quickly bed down again before I could...

I will be going on my first Blacktail hunt in Calif. this October. Which rifle should I bring? .243 with 100 gr.. bullets, .270 with 150 gr. bullets, or 7mm Rem Mag with 150 gr. bullets. I know a nice buck will weigh about 150 lbs. so they aren't huge by any means. The .243 would be small...

My taxi just told me that my wife's antelope hide slipped. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions as to where I can get another one? Thanks in advance. Lien2
