    What to do with a pre war Model 70 Winchester

    Leave it as is! Any modifications you do to it, no matter how minor , will cut the value by around 50%. Hunt with it as is, or oil it and put it away as a investment piece.

    Utah OTC bison drama?

    Gotcha. Once you buy an OTC tag, no more applying for the OIL tag, but you can keep buying OTC as long as they keep that hunt going.

    Utah OTC bison drama?

    Did they change the ruling on that? When the otc hunt opened in 2020 the deal was, you lose your business points, and you can never buy or apply for another bison permit again.

    Taking Equity out of Home to Go on Guided Hunts

    If you've got the cash flow to support making payments on 300k at 7% for hunts, I would think you'd even enough cash to just do one hunt every other year or so, and not borrow the money. Your money, do with it what you like. But, any financial advisor would tell you it's a terrible idea.

    The elk shoulder that stopped a 308

    Maybe someone has already posted this, but I'd bet that bullet hit some pretty good brush before it hit the elk, and entered sideways or even heel first at significantly slower than 1900 fps.

    The elk shoulder that stopped a 308
