Welcome. I personally do not rifle hunt, but CB, Shotgun & ML. But there's usually pretty good advice here. Of course a lot is opinions, and rarely an instance of having to question the opinion of a post, but most people on here know good tips and tactics. I have gained a wealth of info reading, searching the posts, & asking questions when I need to. I believe this is really good forum for newcomers to the sport, as well as seasoned hunters. Especially compared to some other sites where I've read some pretty much BS.....lol.. The majority of hunters, and target shooters here appear to live their sport, and thus have years of experience. Most folks are willing to share advice and knowledge. You will like it here I think. Be safe & have fun!!
