    New Toy

    What size rings did you have to use to fit the 56mm scope on that? I have the elr in 7mm and was looking a 50mm scope and was between 24 or 28mm rings with bath base.

    Whitetail guy needs advice on best boots for elk hunting?

    Altras/Hokas/Salomons.....keep it light and save your knees and back. Also depends on weather conditions but you can also get there brands in gortex if needed. REI carries them all to try on and they have a phenomenal warranty at REI.

    Best backcountry boots

    Altra or Hoka. No need for bulky leather boots. Keep it light weight. Your feet and back will thank you later. This also depends where you are hunting/temperature/rain....

    Best backpack for backcountry hunting??

    Get a hold of Aron Synder at Kirafu. That guy spends more days in the backcountry than 90% of folks. He will recommend the “Hoodlum” pack from Kirafu. As other said, make sure to get fitted properly as well. I also liked the Mystery Ranch packs.

    First vs Second Focal Plane

    That makes sense but couldn’t you just dial with a FFP and have the best of both? That would leave the only potential downside to FFP being the smaller reticle size a closer distances correct? I’m overthinking this probably 🤦‍♂️

    Seekins Havak PH2 or Christensen Arms Ridgeline. I just picked up a Christensen Arms ELR that is very nice but a little over the 2k mark. Good luck!

    First vs Second Focal Plane

    I put together a lightweight hunting rifle for elk and mule deer chambered in 7mm rem mag. I’ve decided to go with a Nightforce NX8 2.5-20x50 scope, but am having a hard time deciding between first vs second focal plane. I’m leaning towards First in case I want to do some longer shooting on the...
