Idaho is gonna make a million bucks on this deal. 11.50 X 40,000 tags (I'm not sure of the # of tags being sold) ought to finance a bunch of wild life management. I hope it turns out that way. Check your math. That's less than half a million, and "make" is pretty subjective.

I use 57 grains of RL19 under a 100 grain NBT, deadly accurate and shoots out of an aftermarket Shilen at 257 Weatherby speeds, something like 3400 fps.

I always hunt with a spotter, 48x Nikon. But then I don't carry it, my horse does.

Martin Bengal is what I flick arrows with.

Black bear 2 512 yards. 338 WM with a 250 grain SGK over 75 grains H4831.

100 gr NBT over 57 gr of RL-22 goes about 3400 or so out of my m700. I whacked a nice 3x4 muley two weeks ago at 394 yds with no hold-over, so to answer your question, yes.

My load for my 25.06 is 56gr of RL-19, Federal Benchrest 215 primers and Winchester brass, Nosler 100gr BT. I get a consistent 3450fps and a nice three-shot cloverleaf. A better shoot could probably put them all in the same hole.
