Republican Governor Greg Gianforte signed an official proclamation celebrating the Big Sky State's long and storied history of hunting and the shooting sports. In Montana, millions participate in hunting and recreational shooting each year, contributing more than $320 million to the state's economy in 2020. Each year, hunters and shooters in Montana support the firearm and ammunition industries, which pay Pittman-Robertson excise taxes that support wildlife management and conservation projects in the state.
