OK.. so my Brother and I are looking at doing the Extreme this year.. would love to hear from some of you that have participated before.. Ongoing question to myself is which rifle to take... All of my setups are for hunting, so no adjustable stocks or anything, looking to have fun, not dominate the competition!!! Have a Christensen Arms in 6.5 Creedmoor, 257 WBY in a Bell and Carlson, or the heavy ol' 300 Ultra Sendero.. All have brakes, and 18-20X Leupold on them with dials set to loads. Have kills out to 500-900 yards with all of them on hogs. Just wanted to see what the consensus was. NAd how are the stages set up? Is it shoot til you hit, set number of shots, or time limit?
Also, as far as packs go. As far as I can tell, most are using a pack that the rifle is attached to in between stages. I have always shouldered when hunting on my few trips to the mountains hunting, but assume the sling weight will get very old very fast in this contest. Any suggestions?
I have the rangefinders, spotting scopes, bipods, bags, etc. Any other tips?
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!!
