I've only been hunting elk with the muzzleloader, this year I'm doing both deer and elk and my main focus will be deer close to home. Plan on doing lots of pre-season scouting and I'll be hunting out of a tree stand for the first time ever this year.

I have to find a new place to hunt... :'(

With boundary changes and changes from public hunt to 'draw only,' my late season is looking like a crap shoot.  I could still stomp around those areas during the early season, but I'd have to find somewhere else for late season.

why do you say that? i shoot a hawken it groups pretty darn well at 100yds with t/c shockwave sabots, im having good results with the barnes mz's also. even with the slower twist rate, just keep the bullets under 290gr or so and they stabilize just fine. plus its about 980985723 times cooler that the cheesy plastic toy looking in-lines... sorry. :chuckle:

Yeah I noticed that as well.  Might suck in those units for a few years, but eventually they will be some great hunts.  They needed to do this change years ago. :twocents:
