Nosler does some really pro-customer actions, one being their Nosler Seconds for just blemished production that is still 100% useable at extreme knock down prices.
What do all the other bullet manufacturers do? When we buy their products, are we buying seconds at Firsts prices?
I don't know...
Been there as well..

--- it really was the powder and slow the bullet down a bit. I fine tuned this just a tad with an additional .004 off the lands to make it .034. I have tested and retested and retested 4 different range times. I can shoot a consistent 3/4" or...
Thanks All!
Some great thoughts. I have never shot a 7mm-08 or a 243 so I don't know what the mild recoil really is but your thoughts of firing first is excellent idea. Went to my gun shop and ordered the rifle today. (well they are first looking for it since they did not have it at the local...
Looking to purchase a Weatherby Vanguard 2 rifle for the wife. She might use it for hunting (if I can get her past the Bambi story). We would definitely use it for target shooting fun at 100 and 200 yards. The caliber is versatile enough for target shooting fun and if we wanted to use it for...
The answer I was looking for was that the tenderloins on an elk weren't the same size or close to the same size as backstrps.
Super answer Scotty
Thanks
How long is the Tenderloin.
I am going to do a gutless on my Elk and after seeing numerous different videos, it appears the tenderloin is about 15 inches long. A friend stated he believes the tenderloin is as long or almost as long as the backstraps?
I am heading back to camp this morning so...
As always, these are the answers I am looking for.
Thanks all. 3 nights and a wake up and I am gone till end of month.
I am not excited one bit though.
Again only 72 hours, 29 minutes, 38 secsonds and 13 milliseconds :):):):):)
Well I never gave this any thought (actually did not ever hear of this till stumbling upon a video)
Who here removes the Elk ivories or whistler teeth for "whatever"?
Also, do any of you just cut and take the elk rack but not the head?
I have heard in the past that if your game is up high or down low, that your trajectory POI is always a bit higher than a straight flat game shot.
If this is true, then one should aim slightly lower?
Thanks

I really appreciate the comments and thoughts. I am 8 days off from leaving. I am going to stop by the Colorado DOW office and ask them about a few of these concerns.
I try to get the most meat but I also balance my strength and capability these days. A heart attack 2 years ago and another...
Great suggestions Guy! Gaitors a good thought too. Also looking at the Ascent's as I type. Thanks 6mm. Looks like I can get a pair for about $210.00 plus tax and shipping. That is for the 30".
Geesh hunting has started to become a very expensive hobby when you live in the city. In my younger...
Last year 3rd Season in Colorado, areas 35 & 36, it snowed big time 4 days into the season. As we are getting a lil older, trudging through a foot and a half to two feet of snow can be challenging and tiring at times. Especially when you don't have snowshoes!!!!
The pros about the snow is it...
Thanks Super-7
I watched a video with the gutless method and an individual showed removing the ternderloins quite easily from the top. I will find and post some time today.
So the deboning at camp is understood - great! what about cutting into steaks at camp before placing in cooler?
thanks...
I am getting my game kill field dressing questions answered nicely. On to the next thoughts; (I am trying to save $300+ this year on the processing end)
My thoughts are I am going gutless field dressing this year. I am also strongly contemplating deboning in the field. (If anyone knows of a...
Hilarious Title. I was expecting a pic of an elk or bear.
I am afraid to say, "how in the world can this happen". If I do, I just know I am going to shoot mine too. :grin: :roll:
With the chronys you do have to be just 4-6 inches from the eyes.
As silly as this sounds, what is this dry ice we are talking about. I understand what it is but is this something one can get at a store usually in a small city or.
Also does this obviously stay cold longer?
Super Excellent information guys!
I believe I have decided on the Coleman Extreme 120 for a couple of reasons after calling Coleman and speaking to a rep for quite a while. Here is the gist I got from them on their cooler models. (I am going by what they told me)
The difference between the...
