[QUOTE="MMERSS, post: 974068, member: 63748"] Yes it is beautiful. You may even stumble into a Griz hopefully far enough to enjoy the view and maybe take a picture or two. The scenery is the trip. Your -06 will work. As mentioned, if possible practice with the rifle to extend your range to practical. There are not near the number of elk above Choteau and Augusta as in years past. You never know what opportunities you may encounter. Additionally I've seen some big mulies taken from near or above the treeline. Having a rifle capable of 400 to 500 yards can be a bonus even though traditional outfitter ranges are below 200 yards. Nothing wrong with practicing for the "just in case." Like, "just in case" a wolf is in a meadow 500 yards away with a valid tag in hand! Have fun and take a bunch of pictures. Your outfitters will take good care of you. [/QUOTE]
