Sounds like mia is on the wrong message board. I hunt elk and mule deer in Colorado where we cannot bait. I spot/and stalk. I grew up hunting in Wisconson and own a cabin there and baited until they recently changed the baiting laws. Enjoy the hunt and ignore opinionated pimples. Look into a muzzle break. I added one to my .300 Win Mag and did not lose any accuracy and my wife could shoot it now.
