Out of curiosity, what time of day have you shot elk? Are most of your shots at dusk or dawn in low light conditions, or are they at other times of the day when there is plenty of light out?
I’ve been thinking about a left hand x-bolt micro midas 7mm-08. They have a 20 inch barrel and the stock can be swapped out for a longer LOP if desired.
Definitely interested in this deal! Thanks for posting!

I like the pattern on this Savage UL.
Did you tape off the rubber panels on the grip and forend or did you remove them (assuming you can) and apply them back after everything was painted?
Last year I bought an EXO 4800, then a few days later I was able to get a MR Metcalf new for about $320 (sale+promo codes+Active Junky). I thought at such a deep discount on the MR I was for sure going to take advantage of EXO’s money back guarantee and send it back, which would have saved me...
Ive was down in south Florida when the state put on one of the python round ups or hunts several years ago.
The guy who either won the event or came in second was staying at my camp site. He showed me all that he caught that day. If I recall it was about nine pythons he had in coolers and all...
I don’t have a good story, but definitely had it happen to me the first time I shot my R700 in 30-06. Then the next time I was at the range my brother did the same thing with it.
I don't think that the back strap would have any issues holding a 45 lb plate.Its got a couple of straps on the side to make sure it doesn't slip off the side. Just want to make sure you have it secured well.
I saw a post or two about always having zip ties in a pack. This may be a dumb question, but could large zip ties be used as a makeshift tourniquet if necessary?
Great job! I I’ve never considered doing a DIY custom rifle buIld with a prefit, but now I may explore this.
I also appreciate the part about what you would do differently if doing it over again. Good to know.
That’s probably the best idea yet. It doesn’t deface the stock and provides more details about how it was acquired, where it’s been, and the game it’s shot.
I only been carrying an EDC knife for about 3-4 years now. 90% of the time it’s been a Kershaw Shuffle and I chose that because it has a bottle opener on the end. However, I don’t crack open too many long necks these days so that doesn’t get much use. The thumb stud fell off a year or two ago...
