    Stone Glacier load lifters

    I have the evo frame and went with the same items you list. I think mine is adjusted correctly when weighted down fits me good then I bivy mode it out and it rides high. Which is ok until I need to look up at times. I think a guy needs to adjust it for heavy loads and either mark it out and then...

    Sight pins for elk

    I run a 3 pin slider now use to run a 5 then a 7 and a single. Thinking hold over or under is simple for a close shot is true on paper.. throw a elk in the mix. Things go on auto pilot pin on target... not hold over or under. Missed a cow with the single pin.. had it set for 27 yards hold over...

    6.5 Grendel with 100gr Barnes TTSX for elk?

    My Grendel shoots the sst bullets well. Accubond sand interbonds May be good options.. Swift makes some good ones..controlled chaos is another all copper one..

    6.5 Grendel with 100gr Barnes TTSX for elk?

    Giving that I know people who have killed bull elk and cows with a 243 I personally think it’s doable. I’d make sure she can cycle the action fast and get on animal for 2nd shot or 3rd if needed... I have the howa mini in Grendel that my daughter is the owner of it if she chooses to do hunters...

    Over 40 and forgivable bow...

    So I am picking up archery again after a few years off. My current bow is a strother sx rush. 60 lb limbs. Love the bow shoots flat and hits hard... but I have noticed that my groups are not like they should be.. or like they use to be.. I think it has to be with older eyes and older muscles...
