    7mm rum 145gr LRX for deer

    I used the 145 LRX in my 7 mm SAUM this year for antelope. I am getting 3200 fps with a custom load. First antelope was shot at 330 yards. Antelope fell dead immediately on bullet impact. Second antelope was at 533 yards and never took a step. I am thoroughly impressed with this bullet.

    Bullet choice for my Sako a7 range 7mm Rem Mag

    I have no experience with the Classic Hunters on game, but have no doubts they will perform well. I shoot the 140 VLD Hunting bullet out of my 6.5 Creedmoor. Last year I dropped 2 antelope and 1 deer right where they were standing. Deer was only at 200 yards, one antelope at 410 and one antelope...

    Bullet choice for my Sako a7 range 7mm Rem Mag

    If you want to shoot the 145 LRX, try working up a load. If you hunt at that elevation or higher, I bet they stabilize just fine.

    Bullet choice for my Sako a7 range 7mm Rem Mag

    I've got a 9 twist on my 7mm SAUM and I am shooting the 145 LRX. MY 7 SAUM and your 7 Rem Mag would probably have similar velocities. The LRX shoots great out of my rifle, although mine is a 9 twist vs. your 9.5 twist. My load development was done at about 1,500' elevation.

    Scope cover

    I use the Butler Creek flip ups on one of my rifles and the Leupold Aluminas on another. Quick and easy on both.

    SOLD/EXPIRED Eberlestock Just One Backpack

    The bottom left picture shows the inside of the expandable section of the pack where the meat is typically hauled. There is no significant staining. I just looked at the pack again and the only staining that I can tell is on the triangular flap shown in the picture of the expanded area where the...

    SOLD/EXPIRED Eberlestock Just One Backpack

    Like the title states, Eberlestock Just One backpack in Western Zone camo. Includes 2 added hip pouches and a water bladder. Pack is in great condition. This is truly a "do all" pack. Last year it hauled out all my gear plus deer quarters and a head. The pack handled the weight easily. $200.

    Wyoming Elk Unit 58

    No the owner of the Wapiti Lodge is not the outfitter, but he is going to have an outfitter operating from the lodge as a home base during the hunting season. The lodge's previous owner catered to folks going to Yellowstone, so they didn't do much business in the late fall. I will have to check...

    Wyoming Elk Unit 58

    I drew a unit 58 cow tag, so I'll be up there about the same time. My buddy recently closed escrow on the Wapiti Lodge, which is just outside Cody. We are in the process of figuring out our hunting plans. I believe he will have an outfitter working from his lodge.

    Tents.....1 person or 2?

    Thanks for the feedback, keep it coming. I will be sleeping solo, so I am leaning towards a 2 person after this feedback. I definitely want my gear, including pack, in the tent with me. Weather is way to unpredictable in Wyoming during the early fall hunts.

    Tents.....1 person or 2?

    I was looking at the Big Agnes line and notice you sell them on your site. I hope to pull the trigger on a new sleeping bag, pad and tent within the next 2 months. Still recovering financially from a custom lightweight rifle build.

    Tents.....1 person or 2?

    Like the title states, I am interested in what ya'll have to say about a 1 person vs. a 2 person tent? I have plans to go on my first "backpack" hunt in Wyoming this year. For the weight savings, I like the 1 person. I like the idea of sleeping with my hunting gear inside the tent and safe from...
