Have been getting the itch for the past couple years, going to put in much more of an effort this year and hopefully find the right kind. Pic from last year. It is a great time to be out, saw, elk, deer, sheep, this griz and wolf tracks. Lot of animals concentrated.
Agree with the others carry a cow call. I once successfully got a young rag horn to stop and bugle at me while I was running through knee deep snow pushing on a hoochie mama. I wouldn't count on that but it made him stop and I was able to make the shot. That was mid Nov.
I've done quarters...
I'm building and hand loading for a 7SAUM so have been looking around for components the past few months.
I think your best bet would be to call Unknownmunitions or a service like them. It may not be in stock currently but you could probably preorder the ammo from them.
If you want to really...
Did a caribou hunt this past Aug. I bought a cheap 70qt igloo style cooler. It ended up being the perfect weight/size/amount of meat combo. Ended up at 92lbs if I remember correctly. Also did the yeti backpack cooler carry on with the rest of the meat. The meat was slightly frozen and made it...
When you are shooting a new cartridge, barrel, brass, powder ect, how do you like to go about that? Do you do barrel break in at all or just go right into development?
Seems like people are in the camp of no break in or follow some sort of shoot/clean procedure. The carbon 6 barrel I'm getting...
My expectations are that draw odds will be worse for LE permits as at least one unit has been eliminated with the new changes as far as I understand. So there will be a 1000 people looking for a new unit to put in for.
If I want, I'll get to hunt the unit I've been putting in for the past...
Looks like Tikka released a new model Roughtech Ember or maybe I missed it a couple weeks ago. Multiple calibers in 20" threaded barrels. 243, 270win, 7mm-08, 308, 30-06. Nice to see some more options.
PowderValley had quite a bit of IMR up this morning. Looks like there are some powders still up, but not what you were looking for.
2nd UnknownMunitions. I was able to preorder some ADG 7Saum through them. Looking at their site PRC's are in the production line up for ADG. I would email their...
Have you seen the scope tests that guy on rokslide is doing? Some people don't like them but they seem fine to me and something that a scope should be able to do. Basically its a series of elevation/windage changes, then drops from 18" and 36" all the while checking to see if the scope holds...
Sweet looking setup!
I went with the same stock (different pattern) on my 7SAUM. Waiting on barrel and suppressor. Looking forward to your load work up.
Great write up and awesome hunt! I love the MF and have been down a quite a few times between 2-6'. Snagged a preseason permit for May 24 this year, hope the roads open!
Depends, some 900 units are going to general some are unlimited permits. Regarding the unlimited permits you would have to apply for the permit in March. The question is if they make it first choice only.
I was a ski instructor in Germany in my early 20's (early 2000's). We'd always head to Ischgl Austria for awesome skiing and even better nightlife. The piste back to the base area was a complete $hit show at the end of the day. Pretty sure it is party central for the Alps.
Anyway, in 2016 they...
