Walk in cooler hang time
With whitetail I hang em in the walk in cooler at 35°- 38°F for 10-14 days with the hide on. I wash em down real good with cold water inside and out soon as I get home. If it's quartered I'll leave em in the game bags if they're not too dirty and throw the outside dried crust in with the grind pile.- elkfanatic

The Ball and Testosterone remover (The man bun gun)
Shoot whatever the heck you want to shoot, and can shoot accurately. I don't own a 6.5 , but also don't think there's anything wrong with the 6.5 creedmoor cartridge itself. The only gripe I've got with it is the hype surrounding it leading to numbnuts taking shots at game way beyond it's...- elkfanatic
