Evening all!

Just wanted to introduce myself. Im Ben, im a hunter from the north of England, UK. I hunt mainly Fallow, Roe and Red deer but also manage a herd of Sika too. I also shoot shotgun, mainly game, Partridge, Duck, Grouse and Pheasant. Im a hunting guide and train and assess for the UK hunting and firearm qualifications (they're not mandatory).. also a lover of custom hunting rifles and long range shooting and hunting.

Favourite calibre… 6.5x284 and 243 Ackley. Also shoot 7mm's..

Here to learn more and read more stories from the US. hoping to visit the US this year.
 
To be fair, I think the plan is to visit MT for a few weeks in June. It's actually my honeymoon! With it being out of general hunting season, I'd love to do some fishing and ideally get out into the back and beyond. I'd like to find a guide who could take us into the mountains with mules or horses for a few days and do some camping and fishing..

And/or, I'd love to shoot some PD. but my knowledge of where to go and who to speak to is non-existent! I'd really like the real experience rather than paying a fortune to go on a nature walk or catch stocked fish..

Any help or advice would be great!

You could possibly start a thread asking for some assistance. Plenty of helpful members from Montana that would be happy to help point you in the right direction.

At lease you can bring a gun here. Some items are needed to bring it in, but in England that's totally different. Not allow to bring in a rifle or go through there on your way to Africa or other parts in Europe. Also I am supprise you are allowed to own a rifle or shotgun their.
Anyway welcome.
