    Joseph von Benedikt vs Formidilosus

    This thread has exposed a weakness in the RS lexicon. There needs to be a discussion on naming the counter-fudd. Tikkolytes? PeRCs?

    Looking For Suggestions - (Elk) Mountain Rifle Build Shooting Copper

    If you go .300wm the Barnes VOR-TX factory loads will give you 2200fps (allegedly) at 500 yards with 180 grain copper. I’m shooting it in a T3X, sure it kicks… but a limbsaver claims a 75% reduction in felt recoil, and I’m going to put an MBM brake on it which will be good for something like...

    New Deck

    Ipe. Doesn’t get as hot, lasts forever with no treatment. Oil it to keep the color rich, or let it weather and go beach boardwalk look. When I did mine it was within a buck or two a foot of Trex, can’t recall which one was more.

    What do you do for a living?

    Airline pilot. Lots of ways to make time for hunting. Get’s harder to make time for family and hunting. For younger single folks the job really gives you ultimate freedom. I’ve met folks that live in an RV, move it wherever they want to hang out and commute to work from there. Another guy kept a...

    Newberg says a $40 elk tag (or whatever it cost) is a $25,000 elk tag for residents.

    Really they should be paying us to hunt their elk. We'll drop a lot of disposable income into their beleaguered states. (is there a tongue-in-cheek emoji?)

    Split the difference and go .17 HMR. One caliber to rule them all.

    Rifle for elk hunting

    I went for a Tikka T3X in .300 WM. There’s another 10,000 pages of debate on that question available.

    Why the NR HATE?? Let's fix it!

    Great Forum

    Thanks! I read the rules and think I can avoid being a “where the honey hole’s at?” Type. I was really impressed with the variety of knowledge that kept coming up on here.

    Great Forum

    I've been working on getting out and hunting more. And every time I start trying to search for something, a thread on RS comes up. And just about every thread that comes up is full of good info. I figured it was about time to register and be a part of the conversation. I have an Idaho OTC elk...
