MT needs to allow non-residents to apply for limited entry tags without having to first draw a general tag.

I don't want a general tag, i want a limited entry, period. If I draw a gen tag and fail to draw a lim entry I'm going to return the general at a 80% refund from now on.

Unless you have an in on some private land, outfitter etc...I see little reason for a non-resident to go hunt public land for bull elk in MT with a general tag, which essentially only comes down to region 3. Or have a honey hole...
Boy are you ever wrong!! A general tag will let you hunt anywhere in the state EXCEPT the limited draw area's. A non resident with a general tag can hunt all of the Kootenai National Forest thats 2.2 million acres of public land by the way, and all of the Stillwater State lands and that is 260,000 accres, and that is in region 1. If you need more public land to hunt then that, then you might want to look at alaska then.
