    Best cookbook for venison and elk

    I agree that 'Slice of the Wild' by Eileen Clarke is a great one.

    Elk bullet - 175 tmk or 175 scenar

    + 155 scenar load work-up is generally pretty easy, not a finicky bullet. And ~ 90 pages of multiple user feedback on various hunts over past 11 years : -) Caveat, I don't personally see elk here so can't comment on that

    280 AI for elk?

    I really like it, but I also reload. Factory 280AI ammo can be found, but in general is more expensive & not as common as other options. If you are okay with that, then yes it's a great round.

    Nightforce NXS 2.5-10 on LA M70

    It's a little tight, depending on your eye's preferred scope positioning and also your preferred base / ring choice. Which mounts are you planning to use? Is the NXS a 32mm or 42mm? You don't want rails, but all I have for a picture is: Classic LA, Burris Xtreme 2 piece base, Seekins...

    129 grain SSTs in 6.5 Creedmoor

    Depending of course on your rifle I think 2,800 fps is possible. Not same exact bullet, but Hornady 6.5 Creed 'American Whitetail' 129g Interlock factory load is showing 2,820 fps. A bud used my chronograph to check that load in a new Ruger barrel and he was very close.

    129 grain SSTs in 6.5 Creedmoor

    I also appreciate the feedback on 6.5 SST. A good friend has used the Hornady Superformance factory 6.5x55 ammo in both 129g SST (now discontinued) & 140gr SST on a few whitetails and he was very pleased. Bang-flop & fist-sized exit. Factory ammo didn't shoot in my rifle, but I am looking at...

    Sold WTB Kifaru standard lid

    Hi Unoboats, If a CB one to match my pack doesn't show up in a few days then I would definitely be interested in a green one (probably OD olive drab?) depending of course on condition and price. Normally I am not fashion conscious about matching colors, so not sure why I even bother now ...

    Sold WTB Kifaru standard lid

    I would like to find a nice old school Kifaru standard lid (standard Zula ZXR etc. ) Prefer CB, but consider other colors (OD, RG, WG, sand, desert tiger, M81 Woodland - honestly not sure all the variants offered over the years ?? ) Please let me know if you have one, thanks Tim

    Why Match/Target Bullets For Hunting

    Is there any similar ballistic gel test data on the newer SSTs?

    Sold Kifaru Pointman, Express, Zulu

    Update - scored an excellent ZXR ( thank you furbis !! ) for my next 'larger pack' . So I am still looking for a mid-size like Express. Prefer a solid color (OD/ranger green/tan/brown) but desert camo would be fantastic too. Let me know if you have one, thanks!

    Sold Kifaru Pointman, Express, Zulu

    Looking for that Kifaru Pointman, Express/Molle-Express, or Zulu that you have stashed away in back of your closet. Prefer a solid color (green/tan/brown) or desert camo would be fantastic too. Looking for something a little bigger than my XRay, but not a full duplex frame for this...

    So I’m re-thinking my 2021 WY plans

    I am also at 2 pts for both mule deer & antelope, and pondering same ideas. For me it's only about 1,400 miles each way from NashVegas, but I was thinking to combine both in same trip "since I'm there anyway"... However I could easily see weather delays or other unforeseen issues rushing the...

    Truck Cap Buyers Guide

    Different brand, model, or features to improve security? Disclaimer - I grew up with 3/4 ton farm trucks & various caps/toppers. Those older topper designs were not secure, but it was farm country and we didn't lock anything... I am looking at cap / tonneau options for my Frontier...
