    First elk with the 77gr TMK 223 (16” tikka) combo. Shot was roughly 150 yards in the timber. Shot hit lungs and heart, bull was dead in less than 20 yards. Very happy with the combo.

    Tikka roughtech ranch?

    Killed my first deer last night with a 73gr eldm bullet out of the 16' tikka. Roughly a 285 yard shot, and the bullet worked as hoped. The deer went less than 20 yards with his heart/lung destroyed... A very fun setup to run suppressed and now i can say effective as well.

    Tikka roughtech ranch?

    Despite what EuroOptics website said, when my .223 roughtech ranch showed up, I have a 1/2-28 thread pitch. Not the end of the world for me, but I would have preferred 5/8. Just be aware, I think there is a mixed bag of thread pitches on the 223.

    Wyoming Thorofare Elk Questions

    I did one guided Thorofare trip (2010 era). It was amazing, but there are a lot of people back there. We rode the trail with countless other folks. For me, that took away from the trip, I just couldn’t understand why we would ride that far just to camp alongside others. We went 1 for 3 on...
