    ELD-X is it unreliable for close range hunting (less than 200 yards) and should it only be used for long range?

    I dont think they are unreliable at close range at all. I dont have pictures, but when we used to be able to shoot lead here I killed a few animals with them. A pig at around 50-60 yards, a blacktail at like 120 and a bear sub 20 yards after I shot that blacktail. The pig was broadside, bullet...

    recommendations for a packable bag for someone 6'7

    Another vote for WM. I’m 6’5” with broad shoulders and have plenty of room in my ponderosa bag.

    Critique My Gear for August NWT Dall Hunt

    Definitely grabbing the stocking cap, actually ordered a new one from Kifaru yesterday when I ordered the lid. Thanks for the suggestion about dropping the puffy pants, I may drop them. I have been looking at historical weather averages and it doesnt seem like its getting crazy cold that time of...

    B zone blacktail

    A zone and B zone are otc. I’m not sure on A zone but B zone sells out before rifle season starts. Oh I believe D3-5 is otc also, I’ve never hunted it or really even looked into hunting those units so I’m not positive on that.

    Critique My Gear for August NWT Dall Hunt

    I think you're right about too many clothes now that I'm looking at it more closely. I will cut some of my gear out. Thanks!

    Critique My Gear for August NWT Dall Hunt

    I'll get the lid ordered right now and kick around getting a larger pack. Its a horseback assisted hunt, so I dont know that we'll have to carry camp on our backs too much, other than for a couple nights if we wanted to spike out. Thanks for the suggestions!

    Critique My Gear for August NWT Dall Hunt

    Hey guys, I leave August 20th for my Dall hunt in the NWT with Gana River Outfitters. It's a horseback hunt, so a different ball game than a traditional backpack hunt. I was hoping to get some feedback on my gear setup from all the experienced sheep hunters on here. Kifaru Rekoning Pack...

    Got out and shot this morning. I bore sited at 50 yards then went to 102. The first 2 were low, I adjusted up and the next 10 went into the 1.5 inch dot with one cutting the edge. I’ll do another 10 round group next time out to confirm then take it out farther. I didn’t throw it on the ground...

    Screenshots of thinhorns through a spotting scope?

    I’m super excited! I’m doing one of the horseback hunts but if Harold thinks a backpack hunt is better I’m prepared for that also. I’d love to see some more pictures from your hunt. That’s awesome you’re going back next year I’ll be watching for your hunt recap!

    Got mine mounted up tonight in UM Tikka rings. Just waiting on my Rokstock now. I got my 20" PBB 6.5 PRC barrel on this week also. Hopefully I can get out early tomorrow morning and shoot a bit!

    You were with Gana River right? I'll be there in August, I am so pumped to see this country and hopefully a sight like this!

    Maven RS1.2 2.5-15x44 new model

    That’s exactly how my illumination looks also. It’s only really noticeable on the 2-3 highest levels, and I don’t think I’d ever use it on those settings or at all really. I was playing with mine well after shooting light last night and didn’t feel I’d need illumination during actual shooting...

    That’s a great buck. It’s awesome to have them in the backyard like that and being able to watch them.
