Some years ago, I ran a survey on this forum asking everyone about what caliber they shot for Elk. Here are the results listing caliber and the number of persons who indicated that was their primary rifle for elk. It's interesting but I bet there are no more than one or two changes to this...
Buy have you opened a can or worms.. or snakes or something.. a fouled barrel will change the oscillation frequency of the barrel which changes the point in the moment of oscillation that the bullet exits the barrel which changes the point of impact in the target. That's why long range...
Look who is instigating in this case: "Grand Canyon Wildlands Council, Center for Biological Diversity and the Wilderness Society." Any of those names ring a bell? Does the bell sound like Sierra Club or ASPCA, or ?? I've checked sites for all three organizations. They all talk about climate...
Just a silly question.. Are the rings set so close to the center section of the scope that they may be impingeing on the turrets ability to move the gimble? I know it used to be SOP with fixed power scopes on heavy recoiling rifles to set the rings right up against the turret housing to prevent...
Were it me, I'd invest a couple more dollars and get a Tikka.. hands down the winner in the medium to low price end of the game. Given the choice between Howa and Savage, I would go with Howa..
Obviously the Dr. has some concerns about the quality of the information passed along here. As previously stated, most of it was sound and very little of it reflected anything akin to snobbery. Having spent more than a few hours glassing through inferior, middle rated and superior optics, I...

I have a pair of 20X Kowa binoculars a bought several years ago for spotting sheep. They are crystal clear and have no distortion anywhere in the field of view. An excellent purchase given the price. I wouldn't hesitate to buy one of their spotters if I needed one.
It's about priorities. First you have to get up where the sheep are.. BOOTS.. Gotta have good boots.
Second you have to find the sheep.. Optics..Gotta have a good spotter and binos.
Third, after you get to where they are and find them, you have to be able to shoot and hit them. .270 is a...
Well, units 1 and 12 are the only units I am familiar with on the Navajo. They both hold some huge deer. Not a lot of deer, but the ones you find are generally big bodied with large spindly alters. Very typical high desert mule deer.
Don't worry. If you are not a tribal member and resident on the res, you will have to hire a Navajo guide. They will know where to go. There are some areas around Window Rock that hold some nice deer.
