Have been studying maps and google earth and have about 5 spots targeted to check out when I make my first scouting...

    Barnes Sabots for Elk

    I drew a Nevada Elk tag. I’m shooting a CVA Accura V2. Anyone have any experience with the Barnes spit-fire T-EZ 290 gr Sabots on Elk ? My gun is set up with these and is very accurate and I really don’t want to start the whole process over especially with components hard to find. I have plenty...

    FCFS changes

    Not sure if this has been discussed but looks like there is a pretty significant change in the FCFS process this year. On the site it says you can only add 1 hunt to your cart per 7 days. So if you snatch it up real quick and decide that’s not what you wanted you’re pretty much screwed for a...

    I have 23 NR points and have always planned on using Duwane Adams when I drew a Late Kaibab tag.

I have talked to Shadow Valley outfitters and High...

    Thor sizing kit ?

    I think this is the year I draw my Colorado unit 61muzzle Elk tag. I need to get my muzzleloader set up Colorado legal so I ordered the sizing kit. The .500 slide in pretty easy ( maybe to easy ) but the .501 are a bear to get in. The .501 show a little grooving and obviously the .501 show more...

    Browning Ammo ?

    I know it’s made by Winchester but has anyone tried any of the Browning Ammo. I picked up a 270 win.
