Hi everyone,
I’m preparing for my first backpack hunt and trying to fine tune a few things.
A little background - I have a mystery ranch Metcalf and have taken it on several western hunts for mule deer and antelope and done some medium pack puts with it. Nothing over 2 miles and nothing too...
Hi all,
I drew my first elk tag for Co 1st season this fall, 10,000ish ft in northern 1/3 of the state. Will be packing in and staying in backcountry.
I’m thinking I’ll need a set of gaiters, but I’m not really sure where to start. Any pointers on picking out first pair? I have...

I have a local gunsmith who does very good work...
looking for recommendations on barreled actions under $1500. Hoping to build a 20” 7 PRC preferably with CF barrel and having limited success finding options where I can choose barrel length.
Thank you
