If the damselfly are active, a damselfly nymph stripped slow or and adult pattern on the surface can draw some vicious strikes. Halloween leach is also a favorite.- Sawtooth

Elk Caliber and Bullet Choice - 2024
Usually I try to keep all shots under 300 yards, but my longest on elk with the load mentioned above was at just under 500 yards. Absolute still morning with rock solid rest allowed for the longer shot. The bull took four steps, stood for five or six seconds and just dropped. Barnes 150 clipped... -

Suggestions for a quail gun?
Mearns quail. The last one on my list. Hoping to get some when I retire in a couple of years. -
Suggestions for a quail gun?
Benelli Ultra light or Montefeltro for semi auto. If the gun fits you right you can greatly improve your hit rate. So regardless of what you choose, get one that fits. -

Fly Rod help
When you say it is too stiff, do you mean that the rod speed is too fast to your liking? Flexes in the top 1/4 of the rod = fast flex rod. Flexes in the top 2/3 of the rod= slow flex rod. If you have a fast flex 4 wt. and would like a medium fast rod, you can go up a weight in fly line and it...- Sawtooth

Elk Caliber and Bullet Choice - 2024
@Sheltowee My rifle shoots both bullets well, but the 185 gr. likes near maxs loads around 2800 fps. and the 210 gr. shoots best at a mid-range load going around 2500 fps. So I have gone with the 185's. I'm sure the 210's would work just fine and takes advangage of the 338 diameter bullets a bit... -

I think I want a pistol
Taurus tx22 is a great shooting pistol. Have put around 600-800 rounds through it in the last two years and have had very few issues with feed or function. I have found it to shoot most all standard and high velocity rounds well. You also can't go wrong with the Ruger single six or S&W K22 in... -

TTSX 185gr vs 210gr??
If your rifle shoots one better than the other, I would go with the one most accurate. If both shoot well, then go with the 185 gr. My 338-06 shoots them both well, and I shoot the 185's.- Sawtooth
