When do the hunting rifle sales hit this forum.... almost like clockwork every year....Day after Black Friday, I'm not entirely surprised if a bunch of folks are out there with a new gun.
I'm 50/50 on this one. I understand the hunters perspective being that I've hunted. I also understand the recreational shooters perspective from what I do with Trash No Land.
Hope you the best with a fruitful harvest @AndyinEverson !
I don't know when he bought the rifle be it a Black Friday Sale or last month...but sighting in during hunting season in a hunting area , is not the way to make friends...

!!!THIS!!!>>>>the black powder season was originally set up to be for traditional hunting ( flinters and sidelock cappers ). It pretty much defeats the whole purpose of hunting black powder when people use those inline rifles I think.Nimrods that sight in thier guns that way, don't have all thier balls in one bag ya might say
I also agree Andy, to me it's very disheartening to see all the inline rifle stuff guys carry in the woods, when the black powder season was originally set up to be for traditional hunting ( flinters and sidelock cappers ). It pretty much defeats the whole purpose of hunting black powder when people use those inline rifles I think.
Might as well hunt moden and have your man card taken away if a guy hunts with inline rifles during a traditional Blackpowder season in my opinion. It's a sad deal.
I wait until its raining sometimes, cause no one goes then. I often get a whole mountain to myself and never see a soul the whole time.
I figure for me its good practice when cold and wet, I sure love me a nice 65 degree spring day, but also love doing it in winter. I have spent most of my adult life ( and my youth )outside so feels natural.
and there's a bunch of hikers making noise down the trails, have their dogs off leash, and wearing dark clothing. All oblivious that it's hunting season.
Moral of the story, people are idiots.
But now days we have Laws that make "disrupting" a hunter during the season a jail time offense. And there are Fish & Game Agents who are willing to arrest them.
Yep, having a private piece of land and a way to get in and out of the woods can always be a real plus when you are hunting. I just never had the big bucks to make it happen.
Yup you are talking MILLIONS with an S meaning more than 1.
For a million nowadays you might get a couple hundred if it was way off the grid with NO improvements.
If you want a real ranch with improvements like a house and out buildings dig real deep, you gotta be RICH!
Eventually the USA will become more and more like Europe where all the land not owned by the Gov't will belong only to the very rich, and posted and probably fenced 8' high with razor wire on top. Maybe even a roving patrol as well.Gabby

Location, location, location.
It isn't the amount of acreage, it is where it is.
This is the view from my kitchen window:

I see deer daily. I can sit on my porch and throw rocks at deer and hit them.
I could have one acre or 100 acres, as long as it is the same location I would still have deer.
