    Show me your elk rifle and weight?

    I posted my rifle in this thread previously but it now has a suppressor and a different grip, and hey, who doesn't like to see more pictures of rifles? New weight: 12 lbs 9 oz field ready (including suppressor, mirage shield, mag (3 round), ammo, sling, Atlas bipod, scope caps, etc.)

    Not a prepper, but… I was thinking about preparedness.

    If you like that book try "Going Home" by Angery American. I found it to be even more interesting. It really gets your mind thinking about different scenarios you might face and how well prepared you are or are not to deal with them.

    Making a stove/tent combo work for all seasons?

    You might check out Hilleberg yellow label and red label tents. You can run them as just the fly really easily if you're going UL. Then put the inner tent in place when needed for bugs or extreme cold. This would not work with a stove, so it may be totally out of line with your plan, but I...

    Suggestions on tents

    You bet! It sounds like all of those are good options. Unfortunately I do not have experience with any Kuiu tents. But I too love their clothing. As for durability, I believe Hilleberg developed and uses some of the strongest materials in the industry. They include a fabric sample with your...

    Suggestions on tents

    I didn't read the entire thread, and it sounds like you may have already come up with a plan, but I will share my experience in case it helps. About a year ago I went through almost the same exact "circular" thoughts about tents that you did and became paralyzed. I ultimately landed on a tipi...

    The 1 Thing You Learned- Bear Hunting

    I've always wondered how long one should watch a bear before determining that it does not have cubs. Sounds like it could take a while to be sure.

    How warm is floorless vs 4 season tent

    A little update here. I was able to use my Nallo 3 on my elk hunt this year. I had a cow tag that opened October 1st. I packed in a little over two miles and setup camp with my Nallo 3. I hunt at a bit over 10k ft elevation. I was up there two days prior to opening day to scout. It rained...

    Bino Dilemma! Need some help here.

    SIG Zulu6 binos with image stabilization. They may be a little out of the price range but might be worth considering. The 16x42s were a real game changer for me. And they aren't terribly expensive.

    Beretta A400 Xtreme Plus vs. Benelli Super Black Eagle III

    Same story here. I have owned a Beretta xtrema 2 for about 15 years and an AL390 for 23 years and neither has ever failed me after thousands of rounds. And they have been through hot and dusty conditions shooting hundreds of rounds in the desert in a day to -15 deg F shooting ducks in the snow...

    Lightweight rear rifle rest

    That's awesome! I find myself wanting to buy more Tab Gear stuff because their quality is so great. I'm glad you like it - that is what this is all about - helping each other out. And yeah I agree on the lightweight aspect - the Tab bag is so light that it is a no-brainer to bring it hunting...
