    How bad do you think its going to get?

    If everyone had always just done that, we’d likely been better off as a human race for the last 2000 years or so. My opinion of course.

    How do you get your elk racks back home in your truck bed? Tips / Pics appreciated.

    Exactly. That’s why I love my Tacoma. Not great for 4x8 sheets of plywood, but that’s like 1% of my use case. Obviously contractors and farmers etc… have different needs than I do.

    unit 95 Grizz attack

    Clearing jams is not something I’d want to be doing while trying to defend myself against a grizzly attack, but we all have different levels of risk tolerance.

    They get real nervous when you talk about ethics over there 😂

    How do you deal with poor harvest rate in the field?

    I don’t know if you’re a guide , that would change things if it’s your profession. When I got married and especially after kids, I simply had to dial it back. My wife is super cool but if I’m mid September I told her no dates until January, that I couldn’t even miss a couple days of hunting...

    6mm and .223/5.56 ILLEGAL for big game in Alaska!

    Makes sense, given that a broadhead is at least 5x the diameter of a 223.

    How much money after everything is paid for?

    But seriously why? Especially if he doesn’t need it, it seems kinda strange to require it, just to prove you are willing to be a little more miserable.

    How much money after everything is paid for?

    God is all powerful and omnipotent, why would he need 10% of my paltry income?

    What's the most fun a guy can have with $20,000

    For me it would without question be hunting giant mule deer in Mexico.

    Does the 223/6mm for everything change when hunt cost $$$

    Just because someone does something doesn’t mean it’s a good idea.

    How did the 6.5 Creedmoor lose steam so quickly?

    Might be true, but for most of us the easy availability of the 6.5cm trumps both of those, since in practice the differences are very small.

    68gr hpbt hornady in 223 9 twist?

    Nice group! Good question on the longer ranges. I’ve shot steel out to 550 and had a decent hit rate. But I haven’t shot paper at long ranges to be sure it’s not keyholing.

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    I do understand what you’re saying, apologies if I came off condescending or kind of a jerk. I agree guides aren’t all knowing, but I guess my thought was they do have more experience harvesting bears in real world situations than the average guy on the internet, who could literally say...

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    I’ve killed 2 interior grizzlies myself. Have a lot of respect for a good friend of mine who has killed 12 brown bears and guided to about 150 more - like me, he also thinks 223’s are amazing, are capable of killing grizzly and brown bears, but should not be the choice of anyone with the means...

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    When I was about 12, I killed a whitetail with #6 birdshot. 20 gauge. It was actually a bang flop. I thought I had gotten older and wiser but apparently I didn’t. Since it worked that time, it must still be a good idea.

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    I probably wouldn’t disagree, with the very last being random internet dudes sharing bear cartridge advice when most of them have probably never seen one in the wild.

    What caused the Rokslide shift to smallest caliber and cartridges?

    I’m waiting for someone to book a $30k coastal brown bear hunt that they saved up for 10 years for, and then take a .223 on that hunt. That weeds out the keyboard warriors real quick. 100% on board with the 223 for deer and elk. I’ve taken countless deer with a 223 and 69gr matchking.
