That was a fun read. Doing my first western hunt next year in Montana for elk. Putting together my first gear list, refining it, and actually starting to purchase items has been easier with sites like rokslide and these articles!
I'm sure we will end up doing some sort of regroup after a week. I've got 2 Dark Energy charges as well to help keep things up and running. Ya I've been combing through Newberg's stuff, youtube and forums trying to learn as much as possible on anything DIY/Western hunting. Ive luckily got an...
My dad and I are doing an OTC Montana Rifle hunt next year for the Elk/Deer combo tag. Pretty much have everything nailed out gear wise besides GPS. I'm lost when it comes to using these hand held devices. Looking at the Garmin Montana and Explorer Plus. Are there any other companies that have...

Am I over thinking things when I'm comparing rifles because of their barrel length. I'm looking at a Weatherby Mark V Ultralight and I'm hesitant to buy it because its got a 24in barrel. I really like Weatherby but I've been looking at a Christensen Ridgeline and it comes with a 26in barrel and...
Does anyone have one of these rifles they could give me a review on or ever handled one, any insight or advice is welcome. I had my mind set on a Christensen Ridgeline about a month ago but it seems like the X2 is just as good of a rifle for 500 dollars less. Ive already got the cash saved up...
