curious as well, I have the Makra Combi and love the way they fit but the seam on the side of the boot came apart on both feet and are no longer water proof. I put shoe goo on them last year and would get about a week before that split. currently have aqua seal on them to see if that works...
my browning xbolt 6.5prc shoots the factory 147 ELDM extremely well, around Eastern Oregon I can get them for $45.99 a box. I only have a sample size of one so far, 4pt mule deer 398 yards he did not take one step. cartridge size entrance and golf ball size exit shot in the crease of the...
I know a few people who have been up there since 1st season (still are), I sent your post to them to see if they have heard anything. That’s a very high traffic corner were the gun was left. If you’re buddy hasn’t already done it make sure he contacts the morrow county sheriff.
