    spring range for elk

    I’m in central/lower Idaho and we regularly see them also but more so in the winter. In the winter we get elk and moose in the front yard. They always come for the crab apples.

    Idaho Spring Bear

    6200ft in Pioneer. Lots of snow drifts to contend with so vehicle access is limited, but it’s easy hiking in. Hills are surprisingly clear of snow and plenty of green on the hillsides. Seen several deer and moose but no bears.

    How many of you guys leave your hunting backpack packed with all your gear? Or unpack it and store it?

    I live where I hunt and always try to sneak in last minute hunts as time allows so for the most part my pack is ready to hunt at all times if there is an active season open. I’ll restock or rearrange as needed.

    FFP Scope choice for 7PRC Elk Rifle?

    I like the nightforce nx8 scopes, but I wasn’t able to bring the scope far enough back for proper eye relief with the 2.5-20 nx8 on my long action 7prc. I went with the 4-32x50 nx8 instead and I can get proper eye relief. I moved the 2.5-20 to a short action and it works for me there.

    What is the attraction of elk hunting?

    What’s the attraction? A freezer full of quality meat and the solitude. Im lucky to live where I hunt so it’s not expensive or hard for me to get out after them.

    Factory eld-x. Does this round look safe to fire?

    I’ve put in a customer claim with hornady with pictures of the round. More just out of curiosity to see what the response will be. I won’t fire that round either way. In person it looks worse than the picture shows. The crease is pretty deep and I don’t trust it.

    Factory eld-x. Does this round look safe to fire?

    My gut feeling is to not fire it off. I’m not going to risk a split neck happening. I’ll just remove the bullet and fire off the primer and use it for a dummy round. I should contact Hornady. Im curious what they would say.

    Factory eld-x. Does this round look safe to fire?

    I can run my fingernail across the line and my mail catches the edge. It’s pretty pronounced.

    Factory eld-x. Does this round look safe to fire?

    I bought some factory hornady eld-x and was inspection the rounds and I noticed this round. I can’t tell if it’s a crease or tear in the brass above the small dimple. Does this round look safe to fire? I imagine it won’t be safe if the thin line is a crack all the way thru the brass?

    Early season archery deer. Solo or Group?

    I mainly hunt alone on extended hunts or short evening hunts, but I live where I hunt so help or friends are never to far away if I need help packing. If I get an animal down I have a short list of people willing to help pack I can contact. I also have a Garmin inreach which gives the wife and...

    elk knife: iron will k1 vs argali carbon thoughts

    I don't have any experience with either of your knife choices but neither look like a good profile for skinning to me. They look like good quartering and meat trimming blades thou. I like to keep 2 knives in my kill kit. 1 specifically for skinning and 1 for meat processing.

    Smaller bait barrels suggestions?

    I’ve used 15 gallon metal barrels I found on Craig’s list and I had my welder buddy fix them up to bait. Worked good enough but it toke some trail and error to come up with a barrel configuration and bait that the bears would not eat thru to quickly. I usually solo hunt and like to pack the...
