    New member heading on my first elk hunt this fall

    Shoot your rifle at 400 at least and get it dialed in for everything in between the muzzle and whatever you're comfortable shooting. Practice shooting prone and getting setup for a shot. That will make a big difference if you're successful or not.

    Factory Ammo Hot???

    Crazy to me that you are chrono-ing factory ammo. Go buy a reloading press you'll thank me later.... If you can find components.

    Retirement state?

    Mt winters are long and dark. Nov-may with no breaks. My in laws from NM tried it and gave up after one winter. You might want to consider that being from a southern state. Fishing kinda sucks here too.

    WSJ - Lead Ammo Study and Eagle, Posted Feb 17, 2022

    Oh we're going to be forced to shoot more expensive bullets on behalf of raptors. If you don't get behind this initiative you are a heartless murderer. Pretty clear to most of us that eagles aren't hurting but gun control needs a new angle.

    Favorite garden vegetable or fruit

    Mooregold squash are great if anybody is looking for a great winter squash that will keep 6mo easy. Way better tasting than any other winter squash I've tried. Sungold cherry tomatoes are damn tasty.

    Horse wrecks and adventures

    They each have their place but I can get my horse places your atv wouldn't dream of going, and haul a elk out. If you don't like horses don't look at this section of the forum dipshit...

    Are Crispi Wild Rock Boots waterproof? I have read in numerous places that Crispi boot are water repellent not waterproof. Does anybody's leak?

    I've had a bunch of different brands of high end boots. Crispi are my favorite so far.

    What hunt doesn’t interest you?

    Bow hunting. Nothing against it but I like to be efficient. Anywhere that is busy or crowded.

    Colorado Cat hunting ban Bill

    Even if you aren't a trapper or a houndsman we need to stand together. Those are the first two to get outlawed, then bear hunting. If you don't understand that trappers and bear hunters don't help the rest of us, I can't help you.

    Concentration Camps, Slavery, & Horrid Human Rights Violations in Today's World

    Same with China and the Uyghurs. I agree we're in a tough spot to do anything about it. Acknowledging what is going on would be a good start. I don't think that's about to happen with our main stream media in its current state. I wouldn't be shocked to learn China is a majority shareholder in...

    Is this Kryptek Sheep hunt film satire?

    Thanks for the reminder that guiding hunters isn't worth the money.

    Horse Hunting Solo

    I've never heard or seen any horses being attacked by griz, I have seen a llama get killed a few different times by black bears and griz. It would suck to have your pack animal get killed while on a trip. If we were racing each other to a camp spot I'd be pretty confident betting on the horses...

    Buying a hunting/mountain horse

    Do you have to sift through a bunch of duds before you find one that is worth riding? Or do you get yours from a specific tip trainer? I know a couple guys with good mustangs but have heard a fair amount of horror stories.

    Glock 29 or 40?

    I carry a 29 most days for work with the mag extension. The 20 ain't bad either but the lighter weight and more compact design is better for every day use if you ask me. If you're using it for griz defense like me your not going to be shooting past 20yds. Unless you are trying to get ahead of...

    Can't beat them, join them.......... Grizz in CO

    I would agree with the concept except when the elk herds precipitously decline the hunters will go elsewhere. Most people, hunters included, don't realize how hard griz hit elk calves. I like all the guys back east taking advantage of CO archery season. We don't need anymore people chasing elk...

    Pfizer clinical trial data: not good at all

    Docs these days are giving blanket advice in my experience. My wife who's pregnant had her doc say she needs the vaccine. She's 30 fit as can be and already has had covid. The OB knew all this and still recommended pumping the drugs into her and our new child. Common sense has left the country.

    Buying a hunting/mountain horse

    From his videos on here he's a hell of a horse trainer. He sells on Cody horse auction which is high end finished horses. I can tolerate a lot more rowdyness 🤣 I'm sure he earns every cent in those horses.
