Day 2 arrived without the moose calling and very minimal elk bugling. We worked our way up the ridge and settled in to glass. Over the next 90 minutes we heard very minimal bugling. Then it began to pick up. A bull started to bugle on the back side of the ridge we were glassing. He kept bugling...
We awoke before the sun. As soon as I opened my eyes I heard a weird sound down below us in the thick bottom. When you’re in grizzly country every sound immediately makes you hyper focused then your brain kicks in and you can try to deduce what your actual hearing.

This year I decided it was time to cash in my elk points and try my hand in Wyoming chasing elk. I applied for a west general tag and WY gladly took my 5 points after the completely typical 5 month wait for the draw results. My friend Trent and I have been hunting together for 3-4 years...
I had enough gauze and pads to dress the wound the whole time. The change I made in my med kit was replacing all the pads with nonstick pads. I made quite the bloody and painful mess a couple of times removing pads that stuck and had to be pried off.
I agree with this answer. I like established calibers that work. If something crazy happens and I need ammo asap I know that Jim Bo's Feed/Seed/Tire/Oil/burgers and beer will have a box for me to buy.
If you decide to buy the 6.5 Creedmore you can kindly remove yourself from this forum.
