Thinking about converting my 300wsm to 6.5prc. anybody know if it is possible, or are there potential problems?

Thanks for all the help and info. I am rethinking the whole idea.

I have a 243 Reminton 700 that is not a tack driver. I have been thinking about re barreling to a 6.5 PRC. I wonder if the action is long enough? And any recommendations who to send it too. I want a gun that will shoot 1/2 inch at 100.

I have general buck deer tag for Monticello area. I have heard I can buy an over the counter cow tag for $99. When I called Fish and Game, they didn't seem to know about it. I am asking if you can get one, where you get one and is the area restricted where you can shoot the cow elk? Thanks for...

I have had better luck with the repair department except the cost. Wait until you see the estimate!!!

I think some misunderstood me. I have often gutted and propped open a deer and left it overnight in cold weather to pack out the next day. I have quartered elk, hung the quarters and left them overnight to pack out later, without losing any meat. I enjoy some of the hunting shows and videos on...

Fortunately, I have never had to wait until the next morning to find an elk I shot. But I hear stories all the time about backing out and waiting until the next morning. I wonder what kind of condition the meat is in, even if in cold temperatures. I would think the meat would be pretty bad.

Give ma call if you want. I sent you a PM

I had a management tag for the Henrys is 2013. You have already been given great advice. Scout early, use the best optics you can afford or borrow. Hunt late, less people and bucks become more active. I cannot emphasize how careful you have to be about not shooting a buck with cheaters. It seems...

Wes--my hunting buddy and I got drawn for 171-173 early mule deer buck. I have been in the area once before, several years ago. Saw a lot of deer but no bucks I wanted to put my tag on. I could use some help.

My hunting buddy and I got drawn for units 171-173 early antlered mule deer. If anybody has information they are willing to share on those units, that would be great.

I understand all the logic for larger calibers, but I have killed 14 elk with my 270 and 150 gr Nosler partitions. It has never let me down. Four of the elk were over 500 yards.

I have been looking at the Leupold v6, 3x18 x44 30mm with CDS at about $1200, a little pricey for me. I read that Vortex has a new 3x15 x42, 1 inch tube, for about $900 I have heard lots of comments about Vortex Binos and Spotting scopes, but little about the quality of their rifle scopes...

I want to go!!!!

I want to go

Well said. Although I still enjoy pulling the trigger, I have just as much fun watching and helping others harvest their animals. Just a thought, seems like you are in a perfect position to turn your spotting scope into a camera. Instead of tagless, you could record priceless memories. I like...

I was in the same boat last year with 16 points as a non resident. I am 65 years old and tired of the points game. I just want to hunt. I opted for the Henry Management Hunt and had a ball. Mainly, just enjoyed the experience of hunting in an area where there were so "many" good bucks to look...

LAST EDITED ON Oct-14-14 AT 11:24AM (MST)[p]That is a fun tag to have. Never drew the tag but I used to spend a lot of time around Independence and I have seen some nice bucks killed from 26 to 32 inches. It is not a real hard area to figure out. Main thing is good optics. I would be glad to...

LAST EDITED ON May-29-14 AT 10:26AM (MST)[p]I used my 5 points to hunt around Pagosa. Love that area, the scenic view is incredible. I am too old to wait for a better tag.

What a roller coaster ride. Back door showed I did not draw, then said pending, now says successful 4th season!!!! I am excited and looking forward to a great hunt.

I hunted the management hunt last year, which is after all the other hunts. I had a friend with me that is a avid hunter and has a great skill in spotting deer. We had a great time. I shot the biggest management buck I saw, a 28 inch 4x3. But, we saw several 30 to 32 inch non management toads...

Back in the early 70's, my Dad and I were hunting in Monticello Utah. We had parked at the base of 11000 ft Abajo peak and hiked over 2 hours in the dark to get near the top. Just at daybreak two bucks came out of the black timber into a big opening. My Dad was about 50 yards to my right and...

Great story and monster buck. Thanks for sharing. Enjoyed meeting you and glad things worked out so well.

I put a Leupold vx3 3.5 to 10 on my favorite gun, a Winchester 270. the scope has the CDS. I like the scope so much, I am thinking about switching my other rifles to it.

I am stoked for both you and your son. That is a great buck. I have been watching and hoping you would post a picture. Congratulations on a beautiful buck.

LAST EDITED ON Nov-02-13 AT 10:28PM (MST)[p]I haven't seen so many big bucks since the early 60's. whoever said it was like a lap dance, was right. Saw several 4x4 s in the 32 inch range. One 4x4 might have been 35. Saw some nice 3x3 that upon closer look had small crab fronts that were hard to...

A big thanks for all the helpful information I got. Leaving thursday for the Henry's. I will be driving a newer dark grey Toyota Tundra crewmax, pulling a trailer with quads. We will be camping in a tent. My name is Mike. If anybody is down there, drop by and say hello.

I thought I would bump this. Wondering if anyone is willing to share info on some management bucks they have seen.

Nice buck--Thanks for the picture

Bump

Wow--Is that thing real? Any info to go with the picture.

LAST EDITED ON Aug-18-13 AT 06:06PM (MST)[p]Absolutely--that is the kind of buck I am hoping for. Beautiful buck. That picture really fires me up.

I drew the Henry management deer tag. I live in California, so pretty hard to spend much time scouting. I would be real interested in what people are seeing on their scouting trips. Pictures would be great! Thanks---Mike

The video was very helpful--Thanks

Has anybody had a chance to try this scope. At 25 oz, it would be easy to pack. Any comments?

Been trying to get on the Nevada Fish and Game website for 45 minutes and can't. Is that normal?
