    late in the game for 2024... need some guidance

    There is a chunk of public close by. It’s not real big (60,000 acres) and it gets pressure for sure. I spent a week in there hunting a basin for opening week about 7 years ago. Was my first western hunt and I was solo. Found tons of 2 week old sign. They moved out right before season where I was...

    late in the game for 2024... need some guidance

    I just put in for PP. my wife and I both have 7 elk points and letting them build for now. I’ve killed two elk with my bow (rag horn and small 6x with a broken main beam) and she has a pope and young. We are both happy with meat and don’t mind the challenge of otc. Is the secondary draw a...

    Potential new build questions - 7 Saum/300 WSM/6.5 prc

    Moose is for sure on the list. I don’t know when I’ll be able to afford it but my wife and I both want a moose. I built my 300 prc for elk or moose. I’ve yet to pull the trigger on an animal yet but hoping that changes second rifle in Colorado. I wish I had time to get out and shoot it more. I’m...

    Potential new build questions - 7 Saum/300 WSM/6.5 prc

    as tempting as the ti version is ill probably forgo that one. i dont mind a few extra ounces on the action. as far as barrel length ill probably go 22 or 24. at least thats my first choice. my 300 prc is a 26" bartlein #4

    Potential new build questions - 7 Saum/300 WSM/6.5 prc

    most likely id go with anothe anti x defiant action. i really like the one on my 300 prc. with it had a little more rail length for mounting a scope. mine is a touch forward to being perfcet but its not bad. the nx8 Nf is a little finicky in the eye box so that doesnt help much either. i...

    Potential new build questions - 7 Saum/300 WSM/6.5 prc

    thats one of the fine details im trying to decide with a 7 saum. short action or medium action and if it is going to be another caliber that goes the way of the 7 wsm and finding components are extremly hard

    Potential new build questions - 7 Saum/300 WSM/6.5 prc

    I built a 300 prc and really like the gun however I’m thinking I’d like to build something a little more compact and shave about a pound and a half off my 9.5 pound 300 prc. I was considering the 7 saum or 300 WSM or maybe 6.5 prc. This will be a dedicated hunting rig most likely going in a...

    7WSM Deer Bullet

    My wife shoots 168 VLD in a 7wsm and it’s a hammer. She’s killed several whitetail and a caribou that dropped like a sack of rocks at 345 yards. Have yet to track an animal further than 30 yards. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Manners EH1 vs the new Pro Hunter stock

    I have the manners EH1 on a 300 prc I built. I like it for the most part. I wish the palm swell on the grip was smaller but other than that I’m happy. I would put a cheek pad on it to help when shooting and sweaty bc the carbon stock is kinda slick. This is the cheek pad I am running and like...

    Tag application dates

    I think I’ll pass paying $150 a year just to know what the draw dates are in a hand full of states. That’s pretty damn steep Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
