    .270 wsm or 7mm wsm???

    OUCH Lark If you want a short mag thats fine. A quick look in my loading manuals did not list the short mags but if I recall right the 7MM-08 is about 300 FPS faster than the 7MM WSM. Better check them again, 7WSM is faster than the 7-08 with any weight bullet. Both are great cartridges. The 270 WSM is a good cartridge but the 7WSM is much more versatile with a better selection of bullets and better B.C.'s

    Youth Hunters

    Here is one of the bucks killed on Fort Bayard. I believe this is the hunt that Eric K. was on. This buck was killed by my (step) son and unfortunately I was not there. It is a great buck and he was very excited.

    World Record Elk

    Ernesto C, feel free to call him and ask the story. Kevin Reid @ Reid and Assoc. (505)891-2528. Then you can fill us all in on the killing of these two monsters. I have already heard enough. There is no doubt that Kevin is a fine bowhunter and has harvested a number of fine trophies under fair chase conditions. He holds a number of record book animals, that were taken under "respectable" conditions. I just dont (personally) feel these two bulls are included with those.

    World Record Elk

    Ok guys, The hunters name is Kevin Reid and he is a very wealthy builder/contractor in Alb, NM. Both bulls are the size claimed and YES, both were killed in Idaho behind high fences. They will not be worth much for pope and young, but SCI recognizes high fence trophies. This raises the old debate, what is the "Trophy" value of an animal killed behind high fences?? Where the only real factor is how much money do you have? Not necessarily stating my opinion, just raising questions.

    Lucky finds

    Yes, I do a lot of predator hunting in the winter. Hope to get out to Arizona this year, since I have a hunting license but no deer tag to go with it, might as well use it for something. One of my best pup squeelers is an open reed antler call made by one of my friends.

    Lucky finds

    LOL, too funny. The elk sheds are from two different units NM 13 and 15, muley shed is from 15 as well. The brown shed was found a week ago and was in the shade of a big tree so it stayed in great shape. Looked forever for the other side, but not that much luck I guess.
  13. Actually unit 15, but I have also seen some of the big 5x5's in 9 as well, just not this big
