Drew an archery elk tag 2nd choice that was only a 1st choice draw last year! I'd say breaking up the 900 tag worked in that regard.
Edit: And my good hunting partner just pulled a rifle tag permit for the same unit!
Should be a good fall!
Under objective, now that's funny, give Hank some time. At the stroke of a pen they'll be at "objective" by the fall season, heck they'll be over objective more likely. You have to remember that now we have our seasons set, we will get the objectives up to what we gave out tags for with the new...
If you haven't read this thread by Greenhorn you should, he met the hunter the day he killed the ram. Page 19 or so. Quite the story all the way around.

Bought some over black friday and so far so good. I've only used them a couple times in my new boots, but did a pretty good hike Sat and came away thinking my feet felt good.
I've used the superfeet as well the past few years, they're ok, these are definitely an upgrade for me so far.
I bought a 2015 Ram eco new. Had it for 5 years and 125k miles. I had good luck with the engine ect until about 100k then started having issues. But with the lawsuit they extended the warranty so most was covered, but then started having electrical problems and moved on. Pretty sure the newer...

Originally I used Federal brass, but also had some once shot Hornady, so decided to work that up as well to see if the same charge would work. Two targets below, 10 shot group with...
Not enough. I drink a 16oz caffeinated seltzer in the morning, get a nalgene in at work, then a few glasses of water at home. Not sure I'd break a 100oz. should try for a gallon. Elk hunting in Sept I easily go through 3L and am usually out by the end of the day wanting more.
Saturday I went...
I need to upgrade my rangefinder this year and was thinking about a bino rangefinder. I went and looked at the Sig and Vortex, I didn't really care for the ergonomics or the clarity of either compared to my current binoculars and I don't have anything special.
How do you like the Meopta glass...
There are some people that argue you should be able to put 10 rounds in a row through a gun and not really have much of a change in impact. If it starts to drift could be a free floating barrel problem.
Someone on here has also talked about "tuning" a savage by trying different torque values on...
You mentioned in the OP that you could improve your skills. Have you taken or thought about taking a formal shooting class?
Other option since you also mentioned shooting a box of 308 leaves you with a sore arm you could look at getting a 22lr if you don't have one already or a 223 rem as a...
If you are looking for the Lee factory crimp dies and they don't make your caliber their custom shop is back open. I needed one for my 7SAUM and just got it the other day, you'll have to send a dummy round in. They said it would be up to 8 weeks, took them only about 3 weeks so that was nice...
Still quite new to reloading, but am starting to get more time on the bench with the garage warming up.
So far have loads for these two.
