    My biggest/longest road trip yet.

    Uncle Randy (@Big Fin), I am begging you for a recap HuntTalk podcast episode with @SCliving Outdoors once he finishes his safari. Would probably be a education for guys back East on how to do Western trips.

    .22 Pistol Recommendation

    Man, I avoided Holosuns for years. Finally put one on a Benelli SBE3 turkey gun and have been thrilled with it.

    Recovered bullets

    Haven't shot an elk with one but damned if the SSTs aren't my favorite deer bullet. They just work.

    22-250 AI powders

    If you can't load it with Varget or H4350, you don't need to load it.

    Favorite camp meals?

    More of a post-hunt ritual but a camp meal all the same-- traditionally for the first meal after a successful hunt, my father and I slice a venison heart and liver paper thin and then sear over a screaming hot cast iron or open flame, with a sprinkle of Worcestershire on each side. Cook to no...

    Nephew Perma’s 100 Day Challenge

    Hang in there bud. You've got a ton of knowledge, stories and experience to show for it. We're killing one next year, you can bet your retirement on it.

    I shouldn’t be looking at guns.

    Great bull! Do I think that scope looks vaguely familiar?

    Best chili

    Skyline. But failing that, I riff pretty hard off of this recipe and it is usually pretty popular: https://nevadafoodies.com/elk-bloody-mary-chili-con-carne/

    Recovered bullets

    Any rough estimate as to impact velocity? I would've thought an LRX would open up a little better. Also, here's a 165gr. Accubond fired into a cow elk at about 75 yards moving about 2700fps.

    300 BO Sub-sonic

    What does your case fill look like? Any chance the charge is getting slopped around inside the case?

    Don't look a gift elk in the mouth ( or don't hate me)

    Hunt smarter, not harder. Great story!

    CO Mountain Lion Ballot Initiative: Continuous Updates

    A lukewarm endorsement but I was pleasantly surprised to see the Denver Post editorial board come out against 127: https://www.denverpost.com/2024/10/29/proposition-127-mountain-lion-hunting-lynx-bobcats/

    Viking *women* Another vote for Tikka. What are you going with as far as a stock?

    Cutting a barrel down

    For what it is worth, I am getting 2774fps with a 127gr. Barnes LRX over a fairly spicy charge of H4350 in my 20inch Tikka CTR. Suffice it to say, you can still get plenty of velocity from a 20inch tube.

    RM 700 20" 300WM barrel needed

    Wouldn't it be cheaper and easier to have a good smith chop the barrel, recrown and thread it? You know the barrel shoots well and already has the profile you want, why gamble with another tube? Failing that, I'm a huge fan of Lilja barrels.

    Idaho draw tag

    Great bull (and even better user name)!

    Why do you hunt - Kids?

    Glad that I wasn't the only one whose mind immediately went to Jonathan Swift.

    My money is on "smacked a prairie chicken with the front grill of an F-150 on I-80."
