No Worries. I was afield for close to a week and splitting a case would be just dandy.

We hiked in close to two miles the first day and while on our way back ran into another hunter and his friend who had hiked in almost the same distance from our north. With such great optics it's a piece of cake to glass up game from a long ways off then hike in to them. In some places there is a road darn near every two miles. We watched a heard of about 70 Elk travel a mile for 20 minutes until they bed. We circled in to them about 1000 yards and snuck in from juniper to juniper and were waiting and glassing for close to an hour when another hunter popped up to our left about 30 yards away. I motioned him to come over and found that he had seen the elk bedded from the road and parked, next to us, and hiked in with a buddy who came in directly into them with the wind to his back and blew them out.

Shot at 400 yards with Rem 700 in 7Mag I bought new in the early 90's. Barnes Factory ammo 160gr and Swarovski 3x18 with custom factory turret for 168 Nosler LRAB. Broke both shoulders. Guided by Grant Hottman and his assistant guide Tyler Sanchez. I'm old enough to be their grandfather but somehow managed to keep up with them. This bull was taken on day six after a 600 yard stalk.

Tim I'll take the 38 Super next time you're out this away.

Well having done both a few times there is nothing wrong with an early hunt. You can end up with tag soup either way. Early hunts are hot, late hunts have slim pickens. I tagged out on a bull on Wednesday after six days of leaving at 4-5AM each day and getting back at about 7:30. Some mornings were 18dgF and we hiked five miles on some days.

Load data for staball6.5 and a 7-08

I wouldn't bother. It's too slow even for 168's. I would stick to something like 4064 to RL15. The slowest I have used was 760 with 168's. -
Very cool, love the XP-100 too. You are only the second person I know who took a Ram with a pistol. The other was a woman in the late 80's who used a 357.

$25 European Skull Mount Plaque! Local AZ business

Find someone who does water jet. Even without that upscaling this to double the size should be a nobrainer in an afternoon. -

Need one for an Elk. -
OK. I had a 1.5X on my TC and have a Burris 2X on a Super Redhawk. Neither one is what I would consider shooting much past 100 yards.

WHat power scopes are you using? I never had that problem on my Contender.

I have used Casey's too in the past. My guide was based out of FL's so it was convienent. I was expecting 2-3 weeks so it looks like they will freeze it then thaw it to cut it up. The dude asked if 4 steaks per package was ok.

Todd South at Southern Express in Mesa. Good dude and knows his stuff.

The only bear I ever shot was on my birthday in 2000 and was a young one and I only took the backstrap. What a mistake. It was like juicy beef. Trich is no big deal. I think you can kill it by freezing the meat for a month.

Cool. I thought it was closed off and on Private land.

Since I'll never find a Greener I can afford I'd love to buy that and cut it down.
