OP mntman742 New Member M Joined: Nov 2014 Posts: 11 colorado springs	hello everyone, first time poster on this site. I'm Brian been hunting since I was 7 years old. Have a fair amount of experience from MN to CO and a couple trips up to AK. CO has been good to me since I moved her in 2004. Had a OIL moose hunt in MN when I was 16 with my Dad and Brother other than that it was only whitetails for big game. A few different species are under my belt now with tons of memories Any way here are a couple pics from this years hunt. Dad also got a decent 8 point back home in MN during the rifle hunt there.

A couple of us are going to west Texas next year to hunt aoudad. You will meet some good guys here. Just stay outta the BS and you will be just fine and learn a lot.

I shoot a 300wsm, i can use it for any big game in NA, even use a 165 grain trophy bonded tip for nearly every thing too. Gun shoots good groups and doesn't recoil much. Love it! Thanks guys!
