Well after building a load for my Kimber 280 Ackley with a Barnes 145 LRX and H4831sc. Found a unique looking antelope and took a 375 yard shot and my load development all came together on Friday Oct. 15.

Saturday morning I was blessed at first light with possibly my personal best bull elk on the Blackfeet Reservation in Montana. 531yd out of my new Christensen Arms Travers in a 28 Nosler.
I have never ran into elk in this basin and thought how cool would that be if I saw some in there. Walked to the rock ledge over looking the basin, low and behold there was my 355" bull. Was a very very good weekend and with it's abundant of meat supply on top of my wife's pope and young bull moose were going to be eating good this winter.
