You definitely picked some great items. I’m a true believer in Sitka, best clothing I’ve ever owned. The only thing I would add would be some Gaiters maybe. I’m not super familiar with the area your hunting or the weather but if there’s any wet grass or brush you might be walking through...
In the realm of shooter error, Inducing “cant” in the rifle could more than explain a 4” error at 400 yards. Maybe I missed it but I didn’t read anything about the shooter having a level on his optic.

I have the the HDB-3000’s and would actually say that I think the opposite is true, let me explain. When I have the mode set to EHR, it returns a range that takes in to account the angle. When I have it set to a ballistic profile, the ballistic solution that it gives takes into account the...
Just to add one more thing to this. There are so many possibilities that it’s hard to narrow down exactly what was going on but I‘m willing to be it’s shooter related. If you were hitting that target consistently at 411 yards then stopped for a break, got back on the rifle and was impacting in a...
I do both Archery and Rifle Elk and Deer hunting. I live in an area with alot of open ground and have adapted to what some would say “Long Rang Hunting” type tactics while using a rifle. I have taken deer out to 1100 yards with my 338 Lapua and struggled with trying to find animals with my 6X...
From the research I was doing prior to purchasing my last bag, the consensus was that synthetics were indeed better if the possibility of getting wet was there. I much prefer down but I think once it gets wet, your screwed until it dries out. Big Agnes makes some pretty good bags which is what...
The problem people are going to have with it is having to pay both entities (State and Tribe). I routinely hunt in unit 5, only living just outside the reservation boundaries and I’m going to have a hard time paying both the F&G and the Tribe to hunt that ground. They (Tribe & F&G) need to...
Yea I saw that as well, pretty crazy. The way I understand it, you would need both a Tribal Permit/License as well as your normal
IDFG License and tags.
It sounds like you bought a quality rail and rings which helps to eliminate that as a potential cause. I would say either shooter induced or it’s your scope. Some possible shooter induced causes could be inconsistent cheek weld and parallax related. To rule out the optic, I would try doing a...
