    Battle of the 6’s

    I chose 6 ARC because it fits in the AR15 platform. Not so for the lower recoil, but the length of pull adjustments are simple with a collapsible stock on the AR platform. You could build an AR10 in 6CM, but AR15s are far lighter and more compact. I built a 6 ARC with an 18" Ballistic...

    143gr ELD-X Unreliable?

    We field dressed the deer; Heart and liver were not damaged at all and the lungs showed minimal damage. Small entry and exit wounds through the deer. I do wish I had taken pictures and spent more time piecing the story together. Lesson learned there.

    143gr ELD-X Unreliable?

    I don't have photos but wish we had taken some. We got distracted when other guys from camp stopped by right after we finished dressing him. It was 60ish degrees so my buddy brough his deer to the processor straight away.

    143gr ELD-X Unreliable?

    I understanding this is a long range forum, but please humor me. I searched around Rokslide to see if anyone posted a similar experience but didn't find anything. Has anyone else experienced terminal performance issues with the ELD-X bullets? Background: A friend of mine hunts with a Proof...

    What does he score?

    Hey everyone - I don't have any background on guessing a deer's score. I was in a Mexican standoff with this brute a couple evenings ago and was curious what his score might be. I took a YouTube video through my spotter. Here's a photo as well for reference. Thanks and Happy New Year.

    Kifaru Bino Harness Review

    I ended up putting my nav pouch on the hip belt instead. It actually worked really well; I was able to fit my phone and one of those big Anker battery packs in it at the same time so I could charge my phone while I hiked. It was pretty secure in there, even when I didn't zip it up all the way...

    New CO bear hunter seeking advice - Western slope

    Don't rule our chokecherries and serviceberries, especially if your area doesn't have reliable acorns. I've also found bears in old burns and clear cuts where blueberries and raspberries grow. If you glass oak brush country, make sure to use a tripod. You're looking for trees moving while a...

    Kifaru Bino Harness Shipping Delays

    Agreed! I assume the shipping delay and uneven seams are rooted in the same issue, the sewers. I hope Kifaru can resolve it. While utility and durability are my priorities, I can see how some would be turned off by the uneven seams. I'll add that the accessory pouches cover this part of...

    Kifaru Bino Harness Shipping Delays

    Final update to close out this thread. Mine shipped Aug. 11th and I got it today (Aug. 14th). Hopefully everyone else that pre-ordered is having similar luck. Not crazy about some of the ugly stitching however, durability and utility are my top two priorities. As I handle it more, it's...

    Kifaru Bino Harness Shipping Delays

    I was told mine was in stock and waiting for shipping to pick up my order when I emailed Kifaru on July 27th. I don't really see a supply, demand issue here... a staffing issue, maybe. The update is that there isn't an update. I'm on my scouting trip and still no shipping notification.

    Kifaru Bino Harness Shipping Delays

    Is anyone else waiting for their Kifaru bino harness to ship? I ordered a large on May 8th after they were unable to update the preorder I placed May 5th when they went on sale. I've emailed a couple of times for a status over the last month and the response last Friday (July 28th) was, I...

    Glassing Photos

    You can go to the White Mountains, hike with your full pack weight and glass up animals or even other hikers. Adjust this strategy out west and spend more time gridding dark timber patches and less on open country. If a spot looks like it should/could hold an animal, spend your time looking...

    FNG From Dallas

    I'm John, 34 years old, originally from New Hampshire where I hunted whitetails, bear, moose, and upland birds. I moved to Dallas, TX last October and plan to start hunting Colorado next fall. I've spent a lot of time listening to podcasts and reading about hunting the west in an effort to...

    Early mulies

    I was dead set to hunt only elk until my first trip to Colorado in June of this year. I moved to Texas from New Hampshire for work and knew it would get me close to western hunting. After seeing the high country and watching mule deer all I could think about was hunting them and spending time in...
