    Disappointed in non-resident hunters

    I’m tired about western states crying about nonresident hunters. I just returned from Colorado’s Combined Third OTC Elk. Colorado closed roads to benefit private ranches, which results in them having more private land at the expense of all others. They sold 280 deer tags for the combined second...

    Jetboil fuel canister

    Something else you can use there that just as good in my opinion is the Kelly Kettle. Look it up on Amazon or EBay. I have both of them and like them equally.

    Jetboil fuel canister

    You can buy fuel that is formulated for the cold. I had no problems with mine in Colorado at 9000’. I put fuel in my sleeping bag at night. It worked just fine.

    Reloading D.A.Q (Dumb *** Question)

    ELDX Performance on elk

    I have the 7mm Rem Mag. I thought the same as well, 1400-1700. I have seen a lot of great things about it, but then I’ve read some reviews that were pretty poor as well. Sometimes you only have 1 shot on an elk, and I want to be on the money and have confidence with the 7mm as I do with the...

    ELDX Performance on elk

    I was mistaken….this is what I have to choose from my reloading bench for my 7mm rem mag for elk: Barnes 150 gr. TTSX, Hornady 139 gr. SST, 180gr ELD Match, Berger 168 gr. VLD hunting I normally hunt with my 30.06 but I won the 7mm at a RMEF dinner 2 years ago. I’ve read great thing about...
