I'll help ya out cuz there are not alot of people who want to help a guy out anymore. I hunted that area last year for 9 days. Region Y is a general pretty much over the counter tag so alot of hunters in that area but you can find decent deer if you work for them. We walked out of there with...

I had a region Y tag last year. We filled two out of three and could have easily filled all 3 but last guy was holding out. We ended up shooting a 140 and a 170 class deer. I wouldn't go there expecting to shoot giants. We hunted for 10 days and packed in away from people and worked our...

Thanks for the help! I have also heard to watch the weather. We are going in on the 14th of Oct and planning to hunt for 10 days but will keep an eye on the weather. I know the road in to where I plan on parking if we get snow we might not get the truck out of there. I have not hunted this...

I just looked again and the wilderness part is a very small portion in the far south end of 25. I am looking at more towards the nw portion. Do I need a permit or anything special or am I ok to just hike in and set up a tent anywhere?

I drew my wy mule deer tag and now I am starting to do my planning. I drew for region Y and plan to hunt unit 25. Its rough country with few roads so I want to pack in on foot, set up a tent and hunt for a week or so. I am just looking for a few answers about if I need a permit or any other...

Congrats!! I also drew a WY mulie tag. I originally sent for region R but drew region Y. Now I start my homework all over again. My goal is to pack in on foot to get away from others. I will be able to hunt for 10 days. I have been looking in the for NW corner of Y. Any help would be great!

Yes, since I am from North Dakota I will be spending a few days in the badlands chasing some mulies around with my bow. That should give me an idea of what I might be missing.

All of this has been very helpful! I have a badlands 4500 pack and love it and should allow me to carry everything I need. I also wear Danner boots, I know there is better but I have covered a ton of miles in Danners and I am not afraid to wear them anywhere. I have a list of items I think I...

I have a new Remington Sendero on order and should be here this week. I ordered it in a 7mm mag and want to try some Berger 168 vld's. I have never loaded these but have been loading and shooting for a while. I have read in some articles that they have to be jammed into the lands while others...

Thanks for all the help! I have been shooting for a long time but this gun was driving me nutz! Just the other day I had a guy offer me good money for the gun so I sold it and ordered a Sendero SFII in a 7mm mag. On to another toy to play with. I think the caliber change is a good move and...

Hey, I have been working with a model 70 in a 270wsm. This gun was purchased new and here is what I have done so far, trigger, bell and Carlson medalist that is bedded and then had it duraglassed, Williams bottom metal, and had a brake installed, and I topped it with a Zeiss 6.5-20x50. I...

I am reloading and I am using Nosler accubonds and have done some playing around with the seating depth. I agree that maybe my technique may need some work. I had a trigger installed and set fairly light and feel when it surprises me I shoot well but other times when it don't surprise me then...

I was shooing from a concrete bench with one of those purchased gun rest but a cheap one! At a hundred was around a .6-.7 group at 200 I would get a few together and then throw one or two out of a group. The more I think about it I'm pretty sure it was me. I had one of those days where my...

I have posted here before and had great results so here we go again. I have a win mod 70 in a 270wsm. Everything has been done to this thing except for action and barrel both were new. I finally settled on a load with retumbo and a 140 Nosler accubond. Good speed and good groups at a...

I made it to the range today and am much more pleased! It liked 70.5 grs of the retumbo at 3270. I was showing no signs of pressure and the gun really liked it. Thanks for the help!!
