Ok so I have a vortex diamondback on my 7mag. It works Well enough. At the range I had to make some adjustments and never put the turret cap back on. I thought it was gone forever. I called vortex to order a replacement cap and they sent me a free one, why? Because they wanted me to relay the...
My 7mm liked the core lokt plus I didn’t get the big muzzle lift after the shot so I could keep the animal in the scope. I went to those after the ballistic silver tips went from 25 a box to to 42 and my muzzle lift was outrageous this is my opinion only. But again the silver tips were damaging...

Just put in for my first ever western hunt draw, cow/calf so a pinch over 300. I hit that button and my excitement went thru the roof. Now I wait. Never play around with a game of chance but I don’t have a choice if I wanna hunt elk.

I appreciate all the responses, for sure some tasty tidbits of info. Just trying to process and analyze some elk behaviors as I am still quandering what unit to apply for. This is a whole new world for me. Its like the first time I went caribou hunting in the northern reaches of Quebec, when...
Strips the size of your thumb and fry in peanut oil for two minutes tops, sprinkle with sea salt and crushed pepper, they should be rare to medium rare and as good as venison tenderloin, smaller cubes of wood duck it’s 60 sec in the hot oil or it comes out tough and tastes like liver.
