    Best ground cloth?

    I buy it on eBay. There are sellers that will sell by the foot. For example, right now a 9x150' roll goes for $165 at Home Depot, so $1.10/ft. eBay seller is $1.55/ft. I'd rather pay an extra couple bucks and not have to hassle with the roll.

    FNG in Utah

    I've always loved the name! Don't follow the teams as much as I used to, mostly enjoy going to the Bees games and other minor league and NCAA games. It's just fun to be there!

    The term "safe environment" only extends so far :ROFLMAO:

    What I learned from my first elk hunt.

    Great story OP, thanks for sharing. It's good to hear this stuff, any experienced hunter has had this happen to some degree. 10x glass can be very effective. Mount it on a tripod and you'll be amazed how much more detail and small movement you can see. I prefer to pack 10x42 with a good...

    Suppressor help

    One more vote for the Omega. I use it on my AR-15, 6.5 Creedmoor, 300 Win Mag. Friend of mine reported yesterday that he's been waiting 11 months for a stamp, expected wait time is 13 months. Ridiculous.

    Rangefinder opinion

    I had the SIG 2000, loved it. Traded up a year ago for the Leupold RX-2800 https://www.leupold.com/rangefinders/hunting-rangefinders/rx-2800-tbr-w-laser-rangefinder Costs more but I can range brushy hillsides out to 1600-1800 meters. I've been very pleased with it.

    Switched from Berger Hybrids to ELD-Ms for game?

    I've been hunting with the 208 ELD-M in 300 WM, they have performed very well for me on elk. Working up loads in the 225 now, so far they are showing promise with sub 1/2 MOA. Some guns are going to like one bullet better than another. I'm glad mine likes the ELD-M, all else being equal I...

    Anyone using Hornady ELD Match for LR hunting?

    Might as well add my two bits to this thread... I've killed 3 elk with my 6.5 Creedmoor using the 140gr ELD-M, 150-400 yds. Two of them went through the lungs and lodged on the other side of the ribs, one went out the other side. Bullets showed consistent expansion. If I can find them I'll post...

    Utah Elk Hunting

    Utah general rifle deer season is the reason Utah is known as a "whole new level of crazy!" More idiots per capita than any other hunt! :LOL: But as Jacob.smithjas said, most hunters, including deer and spike hunters, won't get too far from their UTV. If you're willing to get into the...

    New to Western Hunt - Training Plans?

    Agreed, sounds like you're in better shape than many! Depending on where you're planning to hunt the altitude could be a factor. Going from sea level to hiking at 10,000+ feet will be a factor no matter your physical condition. If you can't train at higher altitudes, I'd be doing fast, intense...

    My Elk Hunting Pack List

    How cold are the temps at night? Wondering how well your sleep system is in colder weather. Great list, thanks!

    Next kifaru pack?

    Tough to beat the Fulcrum! Somehow they'll figure out how to improve it, but I've got no complaints with mine.

    Shooting deer from a boat in New Mexico?

    I don't know if I could hit anything if I shot from a boat! Perhaps a boat falls under the same rules as firing from inside a vehicle?
