    What’s does your fitness routine look like to get in(and stay in) elk hunting shape?

    I'm 53 and have been hunting the high mountains for 30 years. I'm in better shape than anyone I know in my age group. Each year seems to motivate me work harder and raise the bar. Fortunately I have been relatively injury free and live near high and steep mountains. My routine amounts to...

    Back country rifle build

    For 0 to 700yds deer, elk and black bear I like my 300 wsm with 22" barrel and 165 or 180 Tsx. I have a Borden Alpine Mag but a Remington or Tikka will kill just as dead. Weighs 7.5lbs with swaro Z6 3-18.

    How many fouling shots?

    My 30-06 Bartlein #3 likes just one fouling shot. First shot from a clean, cold barrel is usually 1.5" northwest of point of aim and the next 5+ are right on target

    Best wheel gun setup for griz protection?

    I carried a 6" 629 loaded with hard cast lead for years in northern Idaho and Montana for hunting and hiking. I really hated the weight and imbalance of carrying it on either hip, so I downsized to a 5" 686 loaded with hard cast lead. It's way nicer to carry and recoil and follow up shots much...
