Quite honestly, I like Nevada just fine. When I go hunting, the chances of seeing another person are very slight. I can hunt lions and varmints all year round. Upland birds have fairly liberal limits and seasons. It may take a couple of years to draw a deer tag, 4 or 5 for a cow elk, 10 for an antelope, and who knows how long for sheep and goat, but I like my chances of being able to have a mountain all to myself. Next would probably be Wyoming, then Utah after that. I put Wyoming second because the wind CONSTANTLY blows there (have lived there before), and then Utah third because it seems like the whole state is growing. I am in a nice little corner right now that doesn't have a big population, and shouldn't get TOO big in the near future.

Weapons, I would use them all. I have a couple .30-06's,a couple 8mm's, a .223, a shotgun, a .22, and a .50 caliber ML. Soon, I will be adding a .357 that will primarily go when I am lion hunting. I also would like to get a bow, but not sure if I will have the time to use it, so not sure it would be worth it for me to spend $500 on a set-up that would collect more dust than anything.
