Why Travel to Hunt?

One of the main reasons to travel is to get a kick start on the hunting season . Getting an early start is particularly appealing to waterfowl hunters who might not see birds for months after seasons are underway in northern states of US. A truly passionate hunter could follow the migration to  Texas  where they can hunt ducks until January 27 th  of next year. If done correctly this could turn the regular duck season into a long chase spanning every latitude of our nation. Alas, most have responsibilities which would prevent such an exciting trip. So maybe the average hunter is more apt to take a short trip to hunt with friends and family.

With big game hunting seasons quickly approaching, now is a great time to start to prepare your hunting rifles for the field. Here are a few basic but always important tips for getting yours ready for the season. Set the sights: Even if your rifle was zeroed in perfectly the last time you used it, you need to get on a range and dial it in, because even minor jostling in storage and transport could have knocked the sights out of true. Many whitetail hunters prefer a 100-yard zero while those who hunt elk or mule deer in more open country might choose a 200-yard zero. Use the proper load: Use premium bullets to make sure you get the knockdown power, and accuracy, you need to optimize your rifle. It’s also important to match your load to the game you’re hunting. Bullet choice for larger game like moose or elk should have a thicker jacket and a bonded core to help with penetration and ensure a clean kill. Clean it, then foul it: A well-maintained rifle will be more accurate and reliable.
