    Last minute boot change reco….

    https://schnees.com/beartooth-v3-0g-mens/ I just got a pair of these in 12, they are very comfortable for my feet. Lighter than the Kenetrek Mtn Extreme 0g and seem to fit better. I wear my boot lacing rather loose all around and then tighten for downhill stretches.

    Looking to buy my first bolt action rifle

    Go to their website, think the Element is about a pound lighter at 6# for the long action vs 7# for the PH2

    Lighter recoiling elk rifle

    20" suppressed .308 or 7-08 in a lightweight rifle would get the job done.

    Why are bullets frequently found just under the hide on the opposite side?

    I've shot nothing but Barnes TSX and TTSX for well over 20 years and I would say that half of my shots have ended up under the off side hide on elk and those have all been 150 yrds or less. The bullet expended all the energy inside the animal and hit the "trampoline" hide.

    What subsonic straight wall cartridge for whitetail? Not 45-70 or crossbow

    Have a lever gun built in 460 S&W. It will also shoot 454 Casull and use the 45 Colt for the sub-sonic.

    Not the regular what cartridge poll.

    Any one of them will work. I'd say do what I do and take the rifle that hasn't killed anything yet, but maybe not in your case being new at this passion.

    Long Range Pistol - 460 S&W?

    The 460 Smith has always intrigued me, 300 yds should well be do able. With my Ruger Super Redhawk 44 mag 9.5", I can hold under a 2" group at 100.

    Long Range Pistol - 460 S&W?

    Jerry proved that the bullet will get there, but with 150 feet of drop. If you are planning on dialing for elevation would be limited by your scope and what you want velocity you want retained at the target.

    Which Buck Would You Shoot?

    I voted the trash buck, looks like he has significantly more mass, but either would be fine in my book.

    Tripod head recommendations

    The VA-5 clamping lever is spring loaded and can be repositioned to provide more clamping range. The VA-5 weighs over a pound and the Tricer is around 4 oz. The Tricer is a little hard to get to clamp tight enough with a spotter and keep it from shifting when attaching your phone.

    Savage 110 ultralight shimmed bottom metal groups

    Don't know if it applies to the particular stock you have, but Savage rifles are very responsive to tuning by torque on the action screws. https://bulletin.accurateshooter.com/2012/12/tuning-savage-actions-using-action-screw-torque-settings/
