    Suppressed vs Non-Suppressed Hunting

    I have been using a suppressor for probably 15 years and I would not hunt without one. I have always ran shorter barrels for their handiness and currently I have switched to the over the barrel style of suppressor which balances the muzzle even more.

    Backpack?

    EXO K4, go with the 2200 and put all your cold weather gear in the load shelf area.

    Tikka 6 creed PVA 108eldm feeding issue

    I may have missed it but have you checked the dimensions of the stuck case with a caliper?

    Best his & hers "do it all" calibers

    I would say 6CM for both of you if you were to start reloading but that’s not where you’re at so get a 6.5PRC and see if she can handle the increased recoil over your 6.5CM. Good factory ammo selection and good ballistics with a short barrel make the 6.5 PRC a good choice.

    In search for a new pack

    EXO K4, probably the 7200, but don't underestimate how much gear the 5k can carry.

    Pack dilemma

    I can't speak about the Ark, but I would go with the EXO K4 in the short frame. Yes, the taller frame might carry the heavy loads a little better for some, but I have not noticed any difference going from a 25" to a 22" other than the 22" being easier to move through the brush.

    Did you get the barrel off? Did you find anything limiting travel?

    .243 for moose

    My dad always said “you will learn a lot more if you keep your mind and ears open. The biggest thing you’ll learn is who to listen too and who to ignore, but never take what someone says as the gospel test it for yourself.” In the old days it would take years to get enough field data to...

    Do you only grind your own wild game?

    This is exactly why I process my own stuff. Had butcher shops screw up orders and not get back what I brought in. Perfect description.

    Precision Hunter velocity variability between lots

    I have only seen it in the Hornady 7PRC line. I have tested 6.5 PRC and 6.5 CM and did not find a significant difference between Hunter and Match. I wouldn't be surprised if there are other cartridges that Hornady is having issues with, but the 7 PRC was so heavily marketed that it was noticed...

    Suppressor covers getting wet

    I leave it on, I get hate getting the metallic hollow sound when brush, limbs etc. hit the can when I’m going through the jungle of N ID. I will have to check for a POI shift once it’s wet and frozen as I didn’t think about that.

    6mm /.243 hunting success on Big Game

    The ELDM is a different design so you really can’t compare the Berger to them. The ELDM’s will start to upset faster compared to the Berger’s by typically 2-3”. There are lots of ballistic gel tests out there and you can see the difference.

    Crispi Guides/Nevada Insulated vs Non?

    I wear them in snow and rain and they hold up really good. I think I am on my 4th pair.

    Your Elk Hunting Rifle

    My first elk kill was with a 243 lever action Browning which was a long time ago but now I find myself back using the same caliber but a different cartridge. The 6CM is my go to for everything.

    Tikka 308 bolt face

    Yes, you will need a magnum bolt, or you could have your bolt face opened up by a smith.

    Rucking/Military boot

    Crispi Thor is a light weight stiff trainer that might work for you. I prefer the Colorado’s but they are heavier and also stiff. Not sure if you like stiff boots but they fit my wide feet great.

    Crispi Guides/Nevada Insulated vs Non?

    I have owned both and I never run insulated boots my feet tend to get warm very fast so sweating is my bigger issue. I prefer the Colorado’s but either one of your choices are good.

    Best WA state big game compliant (0.24 / 6mm) caliber + rifle with factory ammo

    If you reload that opens the door up for both to be maximized. If you’re not going to reload then the 6.5CM has more options for factory ammo. Easy button is 6.5CM and shoot the crap out of it.
