I got word my bulls started yesterday as well. I’ll be up there Tuesday to see for myself.

Thx for the replies guys. Hope it picks up for ya quick. I guess good news is mine is the early rifle hunt so we will see.

Wishing all the archery guys good luck! Hope you guys are whacking some good ones! Just wondering if anyone has had any recent updates on the rut activity around the state since the front blew through last night. My early rifle tag starts next Friday and work is becoming more and more painful while I wait. Would love to see some of the bulls the archery guys got too if you’re willing to share!

Hoss, this is 100% an LTR. I have the same one. You are also right on with the price. I believe I paid $900 for mine. This is one of the best rifles Remington ever made. Mine shoots everything I throw through it about 3/4in. It shoots a 168 gold dot hand load under 1/2in. Good luck with sale!

I sat one of my favorite waters till 11:30. Only saw one doe and a turkey that did laps around it for 4 hours. Decided to take my chair and lunch back to the truck and check another water that’s about a mile back from that one. I began to walk it and saw a doe walking through the real thick stuff about 35 yards away. She started squatting and throwing her tail up like estrus does do, so I figured she had a buck with her. I set up where I had a shooting lane if there was a buck that took the same path, and sure enough he did. There were really tight windows so only real good shot I had was a touch more forward than I like, but at 35 yards I knew I could do it. I let it fly and he dropped right there. As I was taking pictures I had another smaller buck almost run me over going down the same trail as the doe. They are fired up down here at-least. He was about 6000ft elevation and I’m right off the border. Good luck and I hope you guys start seeing more action!

Don’t feel too bad. I had the late muzzy hunt and it was very tough as well. I only saw 4 mature deer. Of the 4 only two were 4x4s. Open sights kept me from being able to get them across canyons. In the end, I harvested an old big fork on day 7. I couldn’t imagine how difficult it had to be fighting the crowds as well. I hope you get another crack at them though, it’s a gorgeous area!

7 STW is my favorite caliber. I push 168gr VLDs at 3330fps out of my model 700 Sendero. I do reload everything though. Good luck with sale! Rifle is gorgeous.

Appreciate it! Trying to stay away from eBay unless I have too. I trust this site way more than eBay. Thank you for looking out though!

TTT and who do you report scammers to? I have one that tried to get me to email them.
