I'm looking for your best load in both 270wsm and 6.5-06. I'm doing my best to get these rifles up and running but they are being stubborn.
So far with the 270wsm, I have only tried 140 Partitions.
With the 6.5-06, I have tried 140 Hot Cors and 140 Btips, and 130 AccuBonds. So far the 130...
I plan on bringing my 338wm with 225 Accubonds. As far as back up it is the 7mm or pump action 35 Whelen.
I will be in better shape than right now. I have not worked out in 6 weeks but I will start next week after turkey season ends.
Thanks for the info and keep it up.
I'm looking at shooting any bull and after the first 2 days, I will shoot any decent sized elk (no calf). As far as hunting, it will be me and my brother in law hunting on a general tag in WY. We plan on hunting the first week of the season as of right now...
Well, turkey season is coming to a close so now I can really focus on elk and prepping for my first time hunting them. Last night I talked to a guy who has hunted them for years and he said that hunting in the dark timber is a good way to get one. In my mind, I had it that the hunt would be a...
Well the state announced yesteday that after 22 years of working on our elk herd there will be a season. 10 tags total. 5 for the Native Americans/1 for the RMEF to raffle/4 for resident applicants. I'm going to put my name in the hat for $10 why not.
Look into BeachBody.com for workouts. $99 for a one year membership and you will not get bored with doing planks, pushups and treadmill. I did p90x3 from September-Christmas and lost 15 pounds. I'm in the middle of Shift Shop now. This summer, I plan on doing p90x3 again or one of the other...
I built an upper years ago. I used an 18" AA barrel. Mine did not like heavy bullets so I tried the 107 Sierras and they shoot great. I use 8208 and have had great groups. My speeds are not the greatest but hitting the gong at 300 is easy with this rifle.
Let me know if you have any...
Yep we have general tags. As of now, we plan on packing the meat/horns out on pack frames. We wil keep an eye out for big bears. I have hiked in bear country before so that helps the nerves.
Any and all info is appreciated. Thanks guys.
Sorry about the double post. I am looking at 2 areas right now. Western boarder and south central boarder. It will be a DIY for 5-7 days. I'm bringing my 338wm and 7mmRM. Brother in law will have his 270wsm. I hope we can find some elk to chase.
Kinda intimidating for a first timer...
For the first time ever, I have an elk tag in my pocket. My brother in law and myself will be heading out in October to hunt. Time to get in shape and shoot!!!
Sorry to hear about your loss.
You make a killer looking call. If it sounds anything like it looks, you better be ready to haul feathers out of the woods.
I love turke hunting!!!
Spring turkey. I hope to get 3-5 tags and fill a few of them. My wife should draw a bear tag for early September. From there WI archery deer and rifle deer seasons. The biggest wish is to draw my first elk and travel to Wyoming to hunt in mid-October with my brother in law. After all the...
Yes I am talking left and right. The bullets are impacting 3-4" to the right of the bull but I'm out of clicks. I had the big box store mount the scope. I might take it apart and remount it.
