    How to correct drop?

    I always look to streamline my work, but I have some follow up questions. "The issue with trueing is that environmentals are now a factor." Do you mean Temp and Elevation, or? I'm reading this as if you use a chrono, it eliminates the environmental issues. Can you explain this in more detail...

    Garmin inReach Message Delay times?

    This is why you should let someone else have access to your Garmin account. They can log in, see your track log, and ping you to make sure everything is okay.

    6mm /.243 hunting success on Big Game

    You’re going to get the same results, a dead elk. If it were me I would use the MB’s for no other reason than data. The ELDM is a known performer. Load the first round in as a MB and follow it with a ELDM.

    Hydration system for cold weather

    I'm not a fan of bladders in freezing temperatures. Even if you blow the water back into the bladder, the bit valves often freeze. Nalgene or stainless steel bottles are easier to keep from freezing. Carry them upside down so they freeze from the bottom up. You can throw one into sleeping...

    It has already been mentioned but ace bandages are indispensable. I have used a SAM splint on two occasions. If you’re gonna carry 1 TQ carry 2. Most of the antibiotics and creams are not that important unless you are going to stay in the backcountry for an extended period of time. Typically a...

    The only difference between the two is you get longer class time to practice the same skills most WFR courses do not give you anymore advanced skills and cover topics like team litter rescue, mass casualty exercises and other impractical exercises for normal life. If you do go for a WFR really...

    Arrow Penetration....

    I agree penetration is vital and I have always looked to maximize the odds of getting the deepest penetration possible. I think the mechanical heads can work and they are easier to tune now that it seems everyone is shooting 90 yards at animals. But just like a bullet leaving a barrel an arrow...

    What would you do?

    I agree, I have seen a few elk that were not recovered until the next day in late November in a foot of snow that the meat soured.

    On Target Precision vs. ES/SD?

    And it’s even more ridiculous now that every shooter has access to an App that will prove this and you still see shooters state this nonsense. I agree 100%, KISS method for reloading and spend more time shooting.
