GJM,

I didn't understand the context of that comment until I looked up the Commissioner. What an arrogant tool. This is what happens when the Kings Men and their cronies get appointed instead of having a person who has the future of the various game animals, non game animals, habitat, etc as well as the sportsmen's best interest in mind, rise through the ranks. Don't get me started on ID F&G anyways.

Sadly he will be replaced by another appointee who will simply view the position as a way to get his buddies prime hunts, tags, etc as well as taking every opportunity in regards to kickbacks, private land access, etc.

But I digress...

The standard Tikka T3 (or X now) in 308 or 6.5 if you must with the factory composite stock really is the Glock 19 of the rifle world. Stick a SWFA on it with some Talleys, and a 2 point sling and go hunt. You are completely set.

Here is my daughter's.

It now wears a fixed 6X mil/mil SWFA.

She can hunt pretty much everything, everywhere that a bolt action centerfire would be appropriate.
