    Inconsistent groups with suppressor on

    Only thing relatable I’ve experienced is a cracked crush washer. Are all 3 cans different calibers?

    Tent for Truck Camping?

    I have a white duck canvas bell 13’. Sets up pretty fast. 4 guys n gear might be tight in one this size, so I’d recommend a larger one. Carrying bag is nice. Full floor, stove jack&pad.

    Best and most comfortable pack to carry 60+ pounds?

    I have several packs. Mr, kifaru & a k4. The k4 is top of the heap imo. My archery shop carries every sg pack and every time I’m there I put one on and try to make it work. Not for me. I would love to try an akek and IA. Both of those are great designs and seem like companies that want to put...

    Mountain Ops Update?

    I use their ignite pretty much 7days a week as my morning drink. It’s pretty much my drug of choice, with 7 or 8 tubs on hand. I also have a handful of their protein bars on hand that I eat as breakfast. My workouts are in the morning. Both of those are consumed immediately after in my vehicle...

    Scythe-Ti recoil reduction

    I have no experience with an evo. But I do have 2 omega 300s both with flush end caps. I shot a 7.8lb 300wsm with a scythe that made me instantly buy one. Recoil reduction wasn’t really a focus point. It was more the OAL and the weight, doing a great job with sound reduction. My scythe will also...

    Perfect pack for elk

    Exo k4 5000… I did 13 days this past elk season in September. Unless you know the area and have experience. 10 days is a very long time, this requires a bit of a refined gear list and complete confidence in yourself plus the gear. Doing 3-4day loops you will be able to cover more ground, learn a...

    Gaining muscle for hunting?

    As most have said strength training can only help you as long as a balance between strength and cardio is obtained. Improving your A02max is ideal. From everything I’ve seen fast twitch muscles are not ideal in the mountains and it’s where I always struggle, I’ve switched to a lot of kettlebell...

    Tube length, anchor point/eye relief. Would need to be determined before appropriately answering that.

    No Bladder Hydration System

    This past archery elk season was the first year I did not run a water bladder. I went with the yeti yonder in 34*oz and had 2 body armor water bottles. My filter is a sawyer squeeze and I brought a mini as backup. The yonder fit perfectly in the k4 Nalgene holder and required very little effort...

    308 factory loads for whitetail

    I’ve owned a ton of 308s over the years. And have a handful of them now. 168ttsx are my go to, most of the rifles I own prefer them. They have worked great for me on game from 90-460yds. I’ve tried a few lead options over the years. The ones I’ve had the best luck with are the win silver tip...

    Best cartridge for mono bullets on elk under 600 yards?

    This! I’m in the same boat. 168ttsx in my 308s with great success on several big game animals. 175lrx in my 300wsm and 200lrx out of my wm. All great experiences. Vs lead options ive experienced, the outcomes were less than desirable. If I was building a 284 it would be fed 145-168Lrx without...

    Need help with choosing new base layer

    I enjoy the sitka core over several others mentioned. I wanted to grab their new merino based line in a heavier weight, but it was not cold this year here in Wi.

    Low recoil for bigger game

    Ron also advocates maximum point blank range zeroing of rifles with that caveat. I like Ron’s channel, seems like a decent guy. Out of the ops options my vote goes to 308 with a silencerco scythe ti. I’ve had great success with the 168gr ttsx in several 308s. That being said several on here...

    Kill kit weights and ideas. Lets see yours? Ideas?

    I think it’s a great knife, if not one of the best ones. The profile works well with most processing needs. I think the serac is excellent as well.
